DNA Components

Front

What molecule transfers amino acids to the ribosomes during protein synthesis?

Back

tRNA (transfer RNA) is responsible for transferring amino acids to the ribosomes.

Front

Which base does Adenine bond with in DNA?

Back

Adenine bonds with Thymine.

Front

Where does the process of Translation occur in a cell?

Back

Translation occurs at the ribosomes.

Front

What are the building blocks of DNA?

Back

Nucleotides are the units that are repeatedly joined together to form a strand of DNA.

Front

What is the complementary DNA sequence for the strand ATG TGA CAG?

Back

The complementary sequence is TAC ACT GTC.

Front

What are the four main bases found in DNA?

Back

The four main bases in DNA are Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine, and Guanine.

Front

What is the role of mRNA in protein synthesis?

Back

mRNA (messenger RNA) carries the genetic information from DNA to the ribosomes for protein synthesis.

Front

What is the structure of a nucleotide?

Back

A nucleotide consists of a phosphate group, a sugar molecule, and a nitrogenous base.

Front

What is the function of DNA?

Back

DNA stores genetic information and provides instructions for the development and functioning of living organisms.

Front

What is the difference between DNA and RNA?

Back

DNA is double-stranded and contains Thymine, while RNA is single-stranded and contains Uracil instead of Thymine.
