DNA and RNA Test Review

In eukaryotes, DNA

• Is located in the nucleus

• Floats freely in the cytoplasm

• is located in the ribosomes

•  is circular

DNA is copied during a process called

• Translation

• Transcription

• Replication

• Transformation

RNA contains the sugar

• deoxyribose

• glucose

• ribose

• lactose

Which RNA molecule carries amino acids?

• Messenger RNA

• Transfer RNA

• Ribosomal RNA

• RNA polymerase

What is made during transcription?

• RNA Molecules

• DNA molecules

• RNA polymerase

• proteins

What happens during translation?

• Messenger RNA is made from DNA

• The cell uses information from messenger RNA to make proteins

• Transfer RNA is made from messenger RNA

• Copies of DNA molecules are made

Genes contain instructions for assembling

• purines

• proteins

• nucleosomes

• pyrimidines

After introns are cut out of an RNA molecule, the remaining   are put back together to make the final messenger RNA (the parts that are expressed)

• introns and exons

• introns and nucleotides

• exons

• nucleotides
