Watson and Crick used this term to describe the shape of DNA

what is a double helix 

100

This enzyme is responsible for gluing the strand fragments together 

what is ligase 

100

FREE POINTS 

FREE POINTS 

100

These are the two steps of protein synthesis 

what is transcription and translation 

100

This is where DNA replication takes place

what is the nucleus 

200

the sugars and the phosphates 

what is the backbone made up of in DNA ?

200

This is the first step in the replication of one DNA molecule.


What is the unwinding of DNA?

200

if there is 37% adenine, there is this much uracil 

what is 37%

200

this is where transcription takes place 

what is the nucleus 

200

This is the process where mRNA is created from DNA

 what is transcription? 

300

The type of bond that holds bases together in the double helix.


what are hydrogen bonds 

300

The enzyme that is used to build a copy of a DNA molecule.


what is DNA polymerase 


300

This is the base pair that is only present in RNA

What is uracil? 

300

This is where translation starts (where the mRNA travels)

what is the cytoplasm 

300

With RNA, A (adenine) binds with this other base.

what is uracil 

400

A (nitrogenous) base, a sugar, and a phosphate.

What are the three parts of a nucleotide 

400

The enzyme that breaks the hydrogen bonds


What is helicase ?

400

This is the sugar in RNA

what is ribose?

400

This is the result of translation 

what is amino acids (polypeptide/ proteins )

500

If there is 40% thymine, there is this much guanine.

what is 10%

500

DNA replication created this type of model 

What is a semi conservative model 

500

This is the part of the cell that holds the mRNA strand in place while translation proceeds.


what is the ribosome 

500

this is a stop codon 

what is UAA, UAG, UGA
