Dna Transcription and Translation

Front

What is the main difference between DNA and RNA?

Back

RNA contains the base Uracil.

Front

What does every three letters (codon) in DNA code for?

Back

Amino Acid.

Front

Which amino acid is represented by the RNA codon GUA?

Back

Valine.

Front

What is the correct sequence of genetic information flow?

Back

DNA → RNA → Protein.

Front

How many bases are in one codon?

Back

3.

Front

What is DNA?

Back

DNA (Deoxyribonucleic Acid) is the molecule that carries the genetic instructions for life.

Front

What is RNA?

Back

RNA (Ribonucleic Acid) is a molecule that plays a role in coding, decoding, regulation, and expression of genes.

Front

What is a codon?

Back

A codon is a sequence of three nucleotides that together form a unit of genetic code in a DNA or RNA molecule.

Front

What is the role of mRNA in protein synthesis?

Back

mRNA (messenger RNA) carries the genetic information from DNA to the ribosome, where proteins are synthesized.

Front

What is the function of tRNA?

Back

tRNA (transfer RNA) brings amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis.
