DNA
This is the type of bond that holds the base pairs together in the double helix.
Hydrogen bond
DNA: CAT-GTA-CCG-TAT
GUA-CAU-GGC-AUA
The nitrogenous bases of RNA
Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine, Uracil
The 4 nitrogenous bases
Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine, and Thymine
What does DNA stand for?
deoxyribonucleic acid
This is the monomer that makes up DNA & RNA, and a list of its three parts.
Sugar- phosphate - base
the process in which DNA is copied into RNA
Transcription
Brings the corresponding amino acid to the matching codon
tRNA
This is the process that transforms the genetic code from DNA into a complimentary strand of mRNA, and where it takes place.
transcription
nucleus
A(an) ______________ is like a little factory that puts together mRNA and tRNA to produce a protein.
ribosome
This is the enzyme that builds the DNA Polymer during DNA Replication.
Dna polymerase
The process in which protein is made..
translation
A chain of _____________ put together by a ribosome will make a protein.
Amino Acids
This is the enzyme that unzips the DNA double helix
helicase
the base-pairing double ring structure
purines
These are the building blocks (monomer) of proteins.
Amino acid
The place where RNA is synthesized
Nucleus
This type of nucleic acid is responsible for the transmission of information from the genetic code in the nucleus out to the ribosome.
mRNA
When a mutation happens and a nucleotide is replaced with another is..
substitution
the base-pairing single ring structure.
pyrimidines
This is the process that makes copies of the DNA, and where it takes place.
replication
nucleus
Group of 3 three bases on mRNA
Codon
This is the process by which amino acids are put together in a particular sequence according to the message on the mRNA, and where it takes place.
translation
ribosome
When a mutation happens a nucleotide is added..
insertion
Two scientists responsible for the discovery of the structure of DNA
James watson and francis crick
