What is the role of wolves in an ecosystem when reintroduced?

Back

Wolves can eliminate weak animals from a prey population, thereby decreasing competition for natural resources.

Front

What does tRNA deliver to ribosomes during translation?

Back

tRNA delivers amino acids to the ribosomes.

Front

How do cells from the same organism have different shapes and functions?

Back

During differentiation, different parts of the DNA in each type of cell are activated, resulting in the different structure and function of the cells.

Front

What is ATP?

Back

ATP is a unit of energy in the cell.

Front

What RNA bases pair with TACGAA during transcription?

Back

AUGCUU pairs with TACGAA during transcription.

Front

What is cell differentiation?

Back

Cell differentiation is the process by which a less specialized cell becomes a more specialized cell type.

Front

What is the function of ribosomes in a cell?

Back

Ribosomes are responsible for protein synthesis by translating mRNA into amino acid sequences.

Front

What is the significance of mutations in DNA?

Back

Mutations can lead to changes in protein structure and function, potentially resulting in different traits or diseases.

Front

What is the difference between DNA and RNA?

Back

DNA is double-stranded and contains the genetic blueprint, while RNA is single-stranded and plays a role in protein synthesis.

Front

What is the process of transcription?

Back

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