DNA
The sugar that is found in RNA
What is Ribose?
Translation of RNA to protein happens here
What is at a Ribosome in the cytoplasm?
A mutation that does not change the sequence of amino acids and does not cause disease.
What is a silent mutation?
This is the monomer of DNA
What are nucleotides?
The sequence of nucleotide bases on mRNA that would complement the following bases on DNA: A T T C G C A G T
What is U A A G C G U C A
DNA is copied into a strand of RNA during this step of protein synthesis.
What is Transcription?
The type of mutation that occurs when one base is replaced by another.
What is a substitution?
DNA: ACGTTACG
Choose the first codon that is the complementary RNA strand to this DNA strand
UGC
Process in the nucleus involving DNA --> mRNA
What is Transcription?
The full names for the two different types of RNA
What are messenger RNA & transfer RNA?
Anticodons and amino acids are found on this molecule.
What is transfer RNA?
A substance that has correlation with mutation frequency.
What is a mutagen?
How many amino acids will be coded by this DNA strand: CAGGUCACG ?
What is 3?
The parts of the DNA backbone?
What are phosphate group and deoxyribose sugar?
The names of the 4 nitrogen bases of RNA.
What are Adenine, Cytosine, Guanine and Uracil?
Groups of three bases on a mRNA molecule
What is a codon?
The type of mutation that happens when a base is either deleted or inserted, causing a change in the reading of codons and amino acids.
What is a frameshift?
What process(es) is/are associated with tRNA?
What is Translation?
Give one reason why DNA replication happens.
-to replicate
-to grow
-to pass on info
Give two differences between the STRUCTURE of RNA and DNA.
-DNA is double stranded and RNA is single stranded
-RNA has Ribose and DNA has Deoxyribose
-RNA has the base Uracil and DNA has the base Thymine
This is the anticodon for CAG
What is GUC?
The original strand of DNA is ACT TTG CGA
The mutated strand of DNA is ACT TTG GA
What mutation is shown?
What is a deletion?
This is the key feature that allows DNA to be replicated
What are nitrogen bases?
