MISC
100
Made up of a Sugar, Phosphate, and a Nitrogen base
What is a nucleotide?
100
You would find Adenine pair with this nitrogen base
What is Thymine?
100
DEOXYRIBONUCLEIC ACID
What is the full name of DNA?
200
Watson and Crick called it a double helix.
What is the structure of DNA called?
200
You would find Cytosine Paired with this Nitrogen base
What is Guanine?
200
4 types (adenine, guanine, cytosine, thymine)
What is the number of nitrogenous bases?
300
Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine, Thymine
What are the different types of Nitrogenous Bases?
300
According to this rule, the number of adenines equals the number of thymines and the number of cytosines equals the number of guanines.
What is Chargoff's rule?
300
The 2 strands of DNA run in opposite direction, this is know as what?
What is anti-parallel?
400
The Sugar and Phosphate make up this part of the DNA double helix
What is the DNA backbone?
400
This must be broken apart first inorder for DNA replication to occur.
What is a hydrogen bond?
400
This scientist died due from cancer potential due to her ways of studying and taking pictures of DNA
Who is Roseland Franklin?
500
The double helix would not be able to twist. or The hydrogen bonds that hold together the nitrogen bases would not match correctly.
What is the reason that an adenine cannot base pair with a guanine or Cytosine could not pair with a Thymine?
500
The complimentary strand would be TACGGGTGCAC.
What is the complimentary bases for the strand ATGCCCACGTG?
500
DNA copies itself so that there is always one old strand and one new strand in the final product, this is known as:
What is semi-conservative replication?
