DNA, RNA Protein Synthesis

Front

What molecule is responsible for copying and carrying the genetic code?

Back

RNA

Front

If there is 20% Thymine in a DNA molecule, what percent of the DNA molecule will be made up of Guanine?

Back

30%

Front

What are the components of a DNA nucleotide?

Back

Sugar, Phosphate Group, Nitrogen Base

Front

What process is identified as translation in protein synthesis?

Back

The process where ribosomes create proteins based on mRNA sequence.

Front

What is the building block of DNA?

Back

Nucleotide

Front

What is the role of RNA in protein synthesis?

Back

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

Front

What are the three types of RNA involved in protein synthesis?

Back

mRNA (messenger RNA), tRNA (transfer RNA), rRNA (ribosomal RNA).

Front

What is the process of transcription?

Back

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

Front

What is the complementary base pairing rule in DNA?

Back

Adenine pairs with Thymine, and Cytosine pairs with Guanine.

Front

What is the function of tRNA in protein synthesis?

Back

tRNA transports amino acids to the ribosome during translation.
