The Double Helix
DNA, RNA, or Both?
Miscellaneous
100
During this phase, the cell is living and growing. DNA eventually replicates in this phase.
What is interphase?
100
Another name for interphase, mitosis, and cytokinesis.
What is the cell cycle?
100
In DNA, adenine pairs with ???
What is thymine?
100
one strand
What is RNA?
100
Name for an organism that has a nucleus.
What is a eukaryote?
200
During this phase the chromosomes are lining up along the cell's equator or middle...
What is metaphase?
200
The first phase of mitosis.....
What is prophase?
200
The bases are held together by this kind of chemical bond.
What is hydrogen bonding?
200
Has uracil as a base
What is RNA?
200
The location of protein synthesis.
What is the ribosome?
300
During this phase the spindle fibers shorten and the chromosomes separate from each other. The chromosomes move apart from each other.
What is anaphase?
300
What we call the DNA that becomes visible during mitosis...
What is a chromosome?
300
Along the sides of the DNA twisted ladder, we would find these two molecules.
What is phosphate molecules and deoxyribose sugar?
300
Has a code made of a sequence of nitrogen bases.
What is both DNA and RNA?
300
Put these words into the correct sequence and tell how they are connected. Protein Ribosome Nucleus DNA messenger RNA
DNA codes for messenger RNA. mRNA leaves the nucleus to be decoded at the ribosomes where proteins are made.
400
During this phase the nuclear envelope forms around the chromosomes at opposite poles. The cell is stretching and becoming separated into two cells.
What is telophase?
400
Two-part question... 1. What kind of reproduction is mitosis...sexual or asexual? 2. What is the end result of the cell cycle?
1. What is asexual reproduction (there is one parent)? 2. What is two identical daughter cells?
400
Of the following scientists, the one who did NOT help figure out DNA's structure. Rosalind Franklin James Watson Craig Dickinson Frances Crick
Who is Craig Dickinson?
400
Found in the nucleus
What is DNA and mRNA?
400
An organism starts the cell cycle with 12 chromosomes. How many chromosomes will each daughter cell have at the end of the cell cycle?
What is 12 each?
500
This phase starts at the end of telophase and is not considered a phase of mitosis. This is when the cytoplasm divides. Half goes to each new daughter cell.
What is cytokinesis?
500
Two-part question... 1. Cells spend most of their time in this phase. 2. The phase when the nuclear membrane breaks down and the DNA becomes visible as chromosomes.
1. What is interphase? 2. What is prophase?
500
Three-part question... 1. Name of the process where DNA duplicates itself. 2. First step of this process. 3. Second step of this process.
1. What is replication? 2. DNA strands separate or unzip (bonds break). 3. The correct bases come in and pair with the bases on each strand.
500
Three-part question... 1. Only one kind of this molecule. 2. More stable of the two molecules. 3. Master code.
1. What is DNA? 2. What is DNA? 3. What is DNA?
500
This is the process in which the nucleus divides to form two identical nuclei.
What is mitosis?
