Systems
The system of the body that is impacted by food intolerances
What is Digestive System?
A biomolecule that is made of Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Oxygen, and Carbon
What is an amino acid
The Process of Transcription
The process of translation
What is the Ribosome reading mRNA and building amino acids to form a protein
The system of the body impacted by Food allergies.
What is the immune system.
Some ways we can obtain proteins/amino acids (if you say food, what specific foods)
What are Ingesting proteins via food such as meats, dairy, grains, etc.
Build them from amino acids in our system
The location of where transcription of DNA takes place
What is the nucleus of the cell?
The location of where translation takes place
What is the ribosome?
The organ in the body where lactose is broken down into glucose and galactose
What is the small intestine?
The importance of proteins
What is to maintain bodily functions and homeostasis?
The Nucleotide pairs for DNA and mRNA
What is
A-->U
G-->C
T-->A
C-->G
The shape of a protein is always a straight line
True or False
What is false?
What is when the mast cell releases histamine in reaction to the protein
This causes an inflammatory response
What enzymes do to proteins in the digestive system
What is breaking them down to amino acids
What is In the nucleus the DNA is separated
The complementary nucleotides from mRNA attach to DNA nucleotides 1 by 1
mRNA leaves the nucleus of the cell to be translated
Steps of Translation
What is the mRNA codons being read by the ribosome
tRNA binds to the codon carrying an amino acid
another tRNA hooks onto the next codon with another AA
Process repeats to form a protein
The overall difference between a food allergy and a lactose intolerance
What is in food allergies, the immune system reacts to the milk protein when it doesn't. In food intolerances, the enzyme cannot break down the lactose in the digestive system
The path that an amino acid takes after being absorbed in the bloodstream
What is
from the bloodstream, the AA goes to a specific cell
From there it is used to make a protein made by that specific cell
Bloodstream --> Cell --> Protein
The mRNA for the template strand AGGTCAGGC
What is UCCAGUCCG?
Use your codon wheel. The protein sequence that is made when GCAACACCU is read
Ala-Thr-Pro
