100

A  living cell that serves as a shelter, food source or multiplication site for another organism.

What is a Host Cell. 

100

It is the genetic information that every parent passes on to their biological children

What is DNA

100

This cell contains a nucleus and membrane bound organelles. 

What is a eukaryotic cell. 

100

The process in which the information in DNA is copied into mRNA is called this______

What is transcription

100

This process can be seen as the decoding of instructions for making proteins.

What is translation

200

Contains DNA or RNA in a Capsid, Some with envelope. 

What is a Virus.

200

These two structures make up the backbone of DNA.

What is Sugar and Phosphate. 

200

This structure is outside of the cell membrane, it aids in the protection of the cell and it gives the cell shape. 

What is a cell wall. 

200

This structure is the site of transcription

What is a Nucleus. 

200

This molecules transport a specific amino acid to the ribosome during translation.

What is tRNA.

300

This material is common to a prokaryotic cell, a eukaryote and a virus. 

What is a genetic material.

300

This structure holds the two strands of DNA. 

What is Hydrogen bond.

300

This structure is in charge of cellular respiration and energy production.

What is a Mitochondria. 

300

This enzyme is responsible in the initiation of transcription.

What is RNA polymerase. 

300

The codons in mRNA binds with tRNA that carries a complementary __________ 

What is an Anticodon.

400

In this reproductive cycle, viruses use a host cell to manufacture more viruses; the virus then burst out of the cell. 

What is a Lytic cycle

400

This part of a DNA molecule is responsible for the direct coding of specific traits in an organism. 

What is a nucleotide base. 

400

Are single celled organisms with no membrane -bound organelles. 

What is a prokaryotes. 

400

A group of three nucleotides in an mRNA is known as this____

What is a Codon

400

The process of transcription is similar to translation because they both consist of these three steps. 

What is initiation, elongation and termination. 

500

Host typically do not show symptoms for an extended period of time after being infected, could be months or years.....

What is a lysogenic cycle. 

500

The sequence of nitrogenous bases in DNA varies widely. The sequence of the bases in DNA is most important for the variety of _______ 

What is a trait. 

500

This organelle is the site for protein synthesis. 

What is a Ribosome. 

500

When completed, the information in mRNA is taken out of the Nucleus to this structure for translation. 

What is a Ribosome

500

In protein synthesis, there are two processes. The name of the last step is called this......

What is translation.
