DNA Unit Review

Front

What is the role of enzymes in DNA replication?

Back

Enzymes help to open up the DNA strands, allowing the replication process to occur.

Front

What part of the nucleotide contains the genetic information?

Back

The base of the nucleotide contains the genetic information (genetic code).

Front

What is the process of converting DNA to mRNA called?

Back

Transcription.

Front

Which molecule contains the base Uracil?

Back

RNA.

Front

What components are involved in the process of translation?

Back

tRNA, mRNA, and Ribosome.

Front

What is the structure of DNA?

Back

DNA is a double helix composed of two strands of nucleotides.

Front

What are the four bases of DNA?

Back

Adenine (A), Thymine (T), Cytosine (C), and Guanine (G).

Front

What is the complementary base pairing in DNA?

Back

A pairs with T, and C pairs with G.

Front

What is the function of mRNA?

Back

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

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.
