Molecular Biology Genetics Review II

What is RNA?

• RNA is single strand, found in ribosomes, copies information

• RNA is a single strand carbohydrate that provides energy to cells.

• RNA, a double strand, is a form of DNA that stores genetic information.

• RNA is a type of protein that helps in muscle contraction.

What is DNA?

• DNA is a liquid that helps in digestion. It is very filling due to its double strand shape

• DNA is a double strand carbohydrate that provides energy to the nucleus.

• DNA is a type of protein found in cells. It takes on different shapes to create traits

• DNA is a double strand molecule that contains the genetic instructions for life.

What is transcription?

• Transcription is the process of translating RNA into DNA.

• Transcription is the synthesis of proteins from amino acids. There are a lot of different shapes and it is very complex stuff.

• Transcription is the replication process of DNA turning into more DNA.

• Transcription is the process of copying genetic information from DNA to RNA.

What is translation?

• Translation is the conversion RNA to protein in the ribosome

• Translation is the copying of DNA into RNA

• Translation refers to the act of cells understanding information given by enzymes

• Translation is the process of DNA replication occurring during interphase in meiosis.

What is Chargaff's rule?

• Chargaff's rule states that all four bases are present in equal amounts in DNA.
• In DNA, the amount of adenine equals thymine, and the amount of cytosine equals guanine.
• The amount of guanine is always greater than the amount of adenine in DNA.
• In DNA, the amount of adenine equals cytosine, and the amount of thymine equals guanine.
