The term for the two coiled structures that make up DNA.
What is double helix?
100
This type of RNA leaves the nucleus to carry information from the nucleus to other parts of the cell.

The nitrogen base represented by A.
What is adenine?
200
This type of RNA is responsible for carrying amino acids.
What is transfer RNA (tRNA)?
200
Taking genetic information from DNA and converting it to RNA.
What is transcription?

A physical characteristic.
What is a phenotype?

GG

What is homozygous dominant?

300
The enzyme responsible for synthesizing DNA molecules.
What is DNA polymerase?
300
Thymine is only found in DNA. RNA, instead, has this nitrogen base.
What is uracil?

Glycine, Leucine, and Isoleucine are examples of this.
What are amino acids?

Rr

What is heterozygous?

400
The sugar that makes up the backbone of DNA along with phosphate.
What is deoxyribose?
400
The RNA located in the ribosomes.
What is ribosomal RNA (rRNA)?
400
A mutation in codons that occur when nitrogen bases are mistakenly added to a DNA sequence.
What is an insertion?
500
A trait easily observed on an organism.
What is a phenotype (phenotypic trait)?
500

Ww

What is heterozygous?

500
The types of bonds that hold the nitrogen bases together.
What is a hydrogen bond?
500
The sugar found in RNA.
What is Ribose?
500
A mutation that occurs when one or many nitrogen bases are swapped out for different nitrogen bases.
What is substitution?
