DNA

DNA is found inside

• the cytoplasm of your cells

• the nucleus of your cells

• the mitochondria of your cells

• A+B

• B+C

True or False. All DNA codes for proteins.

• True

• False

RNA

• consists of ribose

• can be found exclusively in the nucleus

• does not contain nucleotides as DNA does

• A+B

• A+C

The component of DNA that can distinguish some nucleotides from others is the

• nitrogenous base

• phosphate groups

• sugar

• A+B

• B+C

True or False. DNA has a different sugar from RNA.

• True

• False

If a DNA strand has the sequence of ATG, then the mRNA strand that matches up to transcribe it would be

• AUG

• UAC

• AUC

• none of these

A major difference between DNA and RNA is

• the fact that DNA is single stranded

• the shape of the two molecules, as RNA typically remains in a double helix

• uracil is found in place of adenine in RNA

• that DNA stays in the nucleus

• none of these are differences

True or False. DNA is directly involved in translation

• True

• False

True or False. mRNA assists with both transcription and translation

• True

• False

The order of the bases in DNA is important so that it can

• code for the right amino acids

• bind with tRNA

• convert its thymines to uracils

• none of these
