This type of movement through the cell membrane happens from low to high concentration and requires the use of ATP.
What is active transport?
100
These two chemical molecules make up the "backbone" of both DNA and RNA.
What is a phosphate group and a sugar?
100
This is the time of the cell cycle where DNA replication happens.
What is just before mitosis or meiosis? (Specifically: interphase, more specifically: S stage of interphase)
100
These are the PRODUCT and LOCATION of transcription.
What are mRNA strands and the nucleus?
100
This is where translation happens and the type of RNA that makes up that structure.
What are the ribosome and r(ibosomal)RNA?
200
These types of molecules (two criteria) fit most easily through the cell membrane.
What is small and hydrophobic (uncharged)?
200
These are the three attributes of RNA that different from DNA.
What are single stranded, ribose sugar instead of deoxyribose, and uracil instead of thymine?
200
This molecule is responsible for adding each nucleotide to the new strand of DNA.
What is DNA polymerase?
200
This is the complementary mRNA strand to the following DNA strand: TACAGTCCGATCGCA
What is AUGUCAGGCUAGCGU?
200
This molecule is responsible for bringing the correct amino acid to the growing polypeptide chain through bonding of it's anti-codon with the mRNA codon.
What is t(ransfer)RNA?
300
This type of movement is used to move large molecules or many molecules out of the cell.
What is exocytosis?
300
This scientist is responsible for creating the first x-ray picture of DNA's 3-D structure.
Who is Rosalind Franklin?
300
This is the descriptor given to DNA replication because each "new" helix is actually half original and half new.
What is semiconservative?
300
These non-coding regions are spliced out of mRNA after it is transcribed.
What are introns?
300
This type of mutation occurs when there is an insertion or deletion of nucleotides not in a group of three.
What is a frameshift mutation?
400
This is the state of a plant cell when it is placed in a HYPOTONIC solution.
What is turgid?
400
These two bases form three hydrogen bonds with each other.
What are guanine and cytosine?
400
This molecule is responsible for "unzipping" the DNA during replication.
What is DNA helicase?
400
This region of nucleotides signals to the initiation complex that a gene follows.
What is the promoter region?
400
This molecule is responsible for creating peptide bonds between the amino acids of the growing protein chain.
What is rRNA?
500
This specific protein channel allows water to move through the cell membrane quickly through facilitated diffusion.
What is aquaporin?
500
This is the part of the DNA/RNA molecule that both gives the name "acid" in nucleic acid and causes a partial negative charge.
What is the phosphate group?
500
This strand of DNA must be replicated in segments, owing to the directionality of nucleotide addition (5 to 3 prime). BONUS points for the name of these partial segments.
What is the lagging strand? (BONUS: Okazaki fragments)
500
This codon and corresponding amino acid always begin an mRNA/protein.
What are AUG (start codon) and Met (Methionine)?
500
This is the final amino acid sequence for the DNA template sequence: TAC AAT TCA CTC
