What is Translation?
100
process of copying an RNA molecule by copying a sequence of DNA.
What is Transcription?
200
Single gene changes. Changes in one or a few nucleotides and occurs in a single point in DNA

200
Set of three letters on an mRNA chain that codes for a specific amino acid to be brought on by a tRNA
What is a codon?
200
Transfers mRNA instructions to amino acid
What is tRNA?

300
In DNA, there is a near equal amount of adenine and thymine, cytosine and guanine
What is Chargaff's Rule?
300
Messenger RNA. Copied from a template of DNA, leaves the nucleus, and carries instructions to the rest of the cell. Codes for a specific amino acids.
