100

The sugar that is part of DNA.

What is deoxyribose?

100

If DNA reads A T T    C G C, this would be the mRNA sequence made from it.

What is U A A    G C G

100

Transcription of DNA to mRNA happens at this location in the cell.

What is nucleus?

100

Enzymes are this kind of macromolecule.

What is protein?

100

This base pairs with "A" in mRNA.

What is U?
200

These nitrogen bases pair together in DNA.

AT, CG

200

The names of the 4 nitrogen bases of RNA (their first letters is fine).

What are Adenine, Cytosine, Guanine and Uracil?

200

Translation of RNA to protein happens at this location in the cell.

What is a Ribosome?

200
When running DNA fragments through a gel, the pieces of this size will go through the fastest.
What is smaller?
200

The twisted ladder shape of DNA.

What is double helix?
300

The three parts of the DNA nucleotide.

What are deoxyribose sugar, phosphate group and nitrogen base?

300

List one difference between DNA and RNA.

DNA is double strand, longer, and found in the nucleus.

RNA is single stranded, shorter than DNA, made in the nucleus but transported in the cytoplasm.

300

There are two steps in making protein. This step is when genetic information is copied from DNA to RNA.

What is  Transcription?

300
Gel electrophoresis is used to separate DNA pieces by this factor.

What is size?

300

These types of bonds hold the two strands of DNA together.

hydrogen bonds?

400

DNA is this type of macromolecule.

Nucleic Acid

400

This type of RNA brings the amino acids to the ribosome.

What is tRNA?

400

These small molecules are the building blocks of proteins.

What are amino acids?

400

These special types of proteins help to cut DNA at particular sequences.

What are restriction enzymes?

400

The function of the mitochondria.

Make energy!

500

If you replicate the DNA sequence below, what would the other strand of DNA read?

A T T    C G C

T A A    G C G

500

Every three bases on a mRNA molecule are known collectively as this term.

What is a codon?

500

If a particular protein has 100 amino acids, how many mRNA bases coded for it?

300

500

DNA fingerprinting is used for this purpose. (Multiple answers are possible).
