What is the double helix?
What is two nucleotide chains that wrap around each other to form a double spiral.
300
What is complementary and pairs with a corresponding mRNA codon?
What is the tRNA anti-codon.
300
What is RNA polymerase?
What is the primary transcription enzyme that synthesizes RNA copies of specific sequences.
400
What is the thing that codes for proteins and what is the thing that does not code for protiens? (They are complementary).
What is sense strand and nonsense strand.
400
What happens when each codon is sequentially paired with its anticodon?
What is tRNA adds an amino acid to the polypeptide chain.
