Protein Synthesis
The first step of protein synthesis
transcription
Half of a chromosome
chromatid/ sister chromatid
The first phase of mitosis
prophase
The sub phase of interphase in which the DNA is replicated
S Phase
The second step of protein synthesis
translation
A section of DNA which codes for a protein
gene
This stage is responsible for the chromosome aligning in the middle of the cell
metaphase
The phase of interphase, which the most growth occurs
G1
In transcription, you start with a DNA sequence and end with...
mRNA strand
Which base does RNA not have?
Thymine
The acronym which we use to remember the order of Mitosis
PMAT
Cells spend a majority of their life in this stage
Interphase
In translation, you start with a mRNA sequence and end with...
a protein
three nucleotide bases are also called
codon
This phase of mitosis is where the chromosomes separate into sister chromatids and move away from each other.
anaphase
The three phases of Interphase
The chain of amino acids that are produced in translation are also called
polypeptide chain
Write out the mRNA sequence which would go with the following DNA sequence: CGC TAG AAG
GCG AUC UUC
These two phases of mitosis can be thought of as opposites
prophase and telophase
This is not technically included in the stages of interphase, but can be thought of as a rest/ pause phase where the cell is neither dividing or preparing to divide
