If the DNA template strand reads 3' TAACGC' 5 what is the mRNA sequence?

5' AUUGCG 3'

100

What are the two steps of gene expression in order?

Transcription

Translation 

200

What are the three types of point mutations?

Silent, missense, nonsense

200

the new codon encodes a different amino acid and there is a change in the amino acid sequence.

missense mutation

200

A DNA coding strand reads 5' CCA AGG TCA 3' what is the mRNA sequence?

5' CCA AGG UCA 3'

200

Transcription occurs in the _____

Nucleus 

300

What is the type of mutation show below?

Translocation

300

What is nondisjunction? 

When paired chromosomes fair to separate during meiosis 

300

How many amino acids are read at a time during translation and what are they called?

Three at a time 

Codons

300

This type of RNA carries amino acids to the ribosome during translation 

tRNA

400

This type of mutation changes the entire reading frame downstream of the mutation

Frameshift

400

What is a silent mutation?

Point mutation where the amino acid is the same at the end

400

What amino acid does the codon AUG code for?

Met (Start)

400

This process allows different cell types to develop from the same DNA by turning genes on and off

Frameshift deletion 

500

This is when the new codon is a stop code on there is a premature termination of the translation.

nonsense mutation
