The following nitrogen bases are found in DNA: TTC AAC AGC. What would be the base sequence in a complimentary strand produced during replication?
|
AAG TTG TCG
|
|
During protein synthesis, an anticodon on a tRNA pairs with a codon on this molecule
|
MRNA
|
|
During this process which happens in the nucleus, mRNA is made from one strand of DNA, uracil pairs with adenine and RNA polymerase synthesizes mRNA
|
Transcription
|
|
DNA is the genetic material found principally in this structure
|
Chromosome
|
|
This enzyme links nucleotides during DNA replication
|
DNA polymerase
|
|
Composed of a sugar, phosphate group and a nitrogen base.
|
Nucleotide
|
|
What do we call changes in the base sequence within a gene that can be caused by errors in the replication process, exposure to environmental substances or base substitutions.
|
Mutations
|
|
This RNA functions to carry amino acid during translation.
|
TRNA
|
|
In this double stranded molecule which resembles a twisted ladder, the backbone is sugar and phosphate with nitrogen bases bonded to sugar molecules and sugar molecules bonded to phosphate molecules and nitrogen bases bonded by hydrogen bonds.
|
DNA
|
|
What do we call the process of making a copy of DNA when bases form hydrogen bonds with complimentary bases?
|
Replication
|
|
This RNA carries instructions from the template strand of DNA to the ribosomes.
|
MRNA
|
|
Complimentary base pairing (A with T, C with G) comprise this part of the Watson and Crick model of DNA
|
Steps or rungs
|
|
In DNA, the sugar-phosphates make up what part of the DNA ladder?
|
Sides
|
|
This is the site of protein synthesis (translation) in eukaryotes.
