These building blocks consist of a sugar, phosphate, and nitrogen base.

• Ribose

• Nucleotide

• Gene

• Protein

A string of nucleotides that contain the information to make a specific protein

• Ribose

• Amino Acids

• tRNA

• Gene

The process where mRNA is translated into amino acids happens in what part of the cell?

• Nucleus
• Mitochondria
• Cytoplasm
• Endoplasmic Reticulum

What is the mRNA strand that would result from the DNA template strand CCTA?

• GGAT
• CCAT
• GGAU
• CCAU

Why must transcription occur in the nucleus?

• because DNA can't leave the nucleus

• because ribosomes are in the nucleus

• because DNA polymerase is found there

• because helicase unzips the DNA
