Replication and Transcription

Front

What are the complementary bases in DNA according to the base-pair rule?

Back

A pairs with T, and C pairs with G.

Front

Which base is not found in RNA?

Back

Thymine (T) is not found in RNA; it is replaced by Uracil (U).

Front

What is a nucleotide composed of?

Back

A nucleotide consists of a single base, deoxyribose sugar, and a phosphate group.

Front

What RNA bases pair with CCG TAA during transcription?

Back

GGC AUU are the RNA bases that pair with CCG TAA.

Front

What is the replicated complementary strand of DNA sequence ATCCGTC?

Back

The replicated complementary strand is TAGGCAG.

Front

What is the role of RNA in protein synthesis?

Back

RNA serves as a template for translating genetic information into proteins.

Front

What is the difference between DNA and RNA?

Back

DNA contains deoxyribose sugar and thymine, while RNA contains ribose sugar and uracil.

Front

Define transcription in the context of genetics.

Back

Transcription is the process of copying a segment of DNA into RNA.

Front

What is the function of messenger RNA (mRNA)?

Back

mRNA carries genetic information from DNA to the ribosome for protein synthesis.

Front

What are the three types of RNA and their functions?

Back

1. mRNA: carries genetic information; 2. tRNA: transfers amino acids; 3. rRNA: forms the core of ribosome structure.
