This is the shape of a DNA molecule?
What is a double helix?
The type of RNA molecule that codes proteins are known as this.
What are mRNAs?
These are kept to make a mature mRNA.
What are exons?
This are the reasons that RNA molecules are unstable.
What are reactive oxygens on its sugar and its single stranded?
Chargaff’s Rule’s state this.
What is A = T and G = C?
This 3 letter code defines a protein’s reading frame and also codes for the amino acid methionine.
What is a start codon?
This process is the production of RNA using a DNA template.
What is transcription?
This process is when a cell picks up DNA from its environment and its phenotype is altered as a result.
What is transformation?
This type of RNA molecule makes up the ribosome subunits.
What are rRNAs?
These are removed to make a mature mRNA.
What are introns?
DNA has these properties.
What are lacks oxygens on its sugar, is double stranded, and has T instead of U?
This 3 letter code on a tRNA that binds to mRNAs is known as this.
What is an anticodon?
The fact that some amino acids have more than 1 codon confers this benefit to an organism.
What is some resistance to some catastrophic mutations?
This 3 letter code defines the stop of translation.
What is a stop codon?
RNA has these properties.
What are oxygens on its sugar, is single stranded, and has a U instead of T?
The monomers that make up proteins are known as this.
What are amino acids?
This type of RNA molecule contains codons and brings in amino acid residues.
What are tRNAs?
This process is the production of protein using an mRNA template.
What is translation?
Nucleotides consist of these 3 parts.
What are a phosphate backbone, a nitrogenous base, and a ribose sugar?
The removal of introns from an mRNA is called this.
What is splicing?
The idea that DNA->RNA->protein is known as this.
What is the Central Dogma of Molecular Biology?
This is added to an mRNA to make it more stable.
What is a polyA tail?
This region of DNA controls where and when a gene is expressed.
What is the promoter?
This is a 3 letter code that defines a particular amino acid.
What is a codon?
The process of DNA replication is said to be this.
What is semiconservative?
