DNA and RNA
Who determined the structure of DNA?
Who was Watson and Crick.
Which occurs first between the 2 steps?
What is Transcription.
What is a mutation?
What is any permanent change in the DNA nucleotide.
What is Mitosis?
What is nuclear division that maintains the chromosome number.
What is meiosis?
What is nuclear division that reduces the chromosome number.
What are the 4 bases of DNA and their complimentary pairs?
What are Adenine and Thymine, Cytosine and Guanine.
Where does Transcription occur in Eukaryotes?
Where is in the nucleus.
What does an Operon consist of?
What are the promotor and the operator.
How many daughter cells are created and what are they like?
What is 2 diploid, identical daughter cells.
How many daughter cells are created and what are they like?
What are 4 unique, haploid daughter cells.
What are the 3 types of RNA?
What are mRNA, rRNA, and tRNA.
Where is mRNA used in Translation?
Where is on a ribosome.
What is cancer caused by?
What is uncontrolled cell division.
What are the steps to Mitosis?
What is PMAT (prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase)
What happens in Meiosis 1?
What are the homologous pair members are separated.
DNA Replication is what kind of process?
What is semi-conservative.
How many bases are read at a time in Translation?
What are 3 bases.
What do Prokaryotes do instead of mitosis?
What is binary fission.
What are the 3 Checkpoints of the cell cycle?
What are G1, G2, and M.
What is Meiosis used for?
What is for Gametes and Sexual reproduction.
What are the differences between DNA and RNA?
What is that DNA is double stranded, contains the sugar deoxyribose, and has the base Thymine; RNA is single stranded, contains the sugar ribose, and replaces Thymine with Uracil.
Translate this DNA strand into RNA:

What is AUGUCAGCCGCGUAA
What happens when p53 gene is mutated?
What is that it won't stop the cell cycle to check for mistakes, can become cancerous.
What does Interphase consist of?
What are G1, S, and G2.
What creates genetic diversity in Meiosis?
What is crossover, which happens in synapsis.
