Protein Synthesis Quiz

What describes an mRNA strand being transcribed?

• mRNA is degraded into DNA during transcription.
• mRNA is directly translated into proteins without a template.
• The mRNA strand is complementary to the DNA template strand

  Uracil instead of thymine is paired with adenine.

What is the purpose of the cellular process modeled here?

• Transcription
• DNA replication
• Cell division
• Protein synthesis

What type of molecule is being produced?

• mRNA

• Lipid
• DNA
• Protein

How are differences in traits determined in the DNA?

• All traits are identical in every individual due to genetic uniformity.
• by environmental factors.

• by the number of chromosomes in an organism.

• the sequence of nucleotides

What process and product are represented in the diagram?

• Replication of DNA
• Transcription of DNA to mRNA
• Translation of mRNA to protein
• Transcription of RNA to DNA

How do the nitrogenous bases determine which protein is synthesized?

• The order of nitrogenous bases determines the order of amino acids in the proteins

  synthesized.

• Nitrogenous bases determine protein synthesis by their color.
• Proteins are synthesized based on the shape of nitrogenous bases.
• Nitrogenous bases directly create proteins without coding.

Which is the correct determination of the relationship between DNA, mRNA, and proteins?

• Proteins are synthesized from DNA without the involvement of mRNA.
• mRNA is converted directly to DNA, which then forms proteins.
• DNA is transcribed to mRNA, which is translated to proteins.
• DNA is translated to mRNA, which is transcribed to proteins.
