Lable the parts of the nucleotide: pink - A purple - B blue - C

A= phosphate group B = 5 carbon sugar C= nitrogenous base

A= nitrogenous base B=phosphate group C= 5 carbon sugar

A= phosphate group B= nitrogenous base C= 5 carbon sugar

A= nitrogenous base B= 5 carbon sugar C= phosphate group

What is the code in the codon AUG and what does it mean?

AUG is the start codon and codes for methionine.

AUG codes for alanine and is not a start codon.

AUG is a stop codon that signals the end of translation.

AUG is a codon that codes for serine.

What is the result of DNA replication?

Providing new cells with a complete and identical copy of genetic material

Adding more traits to a living organism as it ages

Filling increased space within the nucleus of a growing cell

Changing the traits of a living organism to meet the needs in a new environment

Which statement correctly distinguishes DNA and RNA?

RNA contains the sugar ribose and DNA does not.

DNA contains uracil and RNA does not.

DNA contains nitrogenous bases and RNA does not.

RNA is arranged in a double helix and DNA is not.

Which statement correctly describes the structure of DNA?

It is a single-stranded molecule.

What are the two steps of DNA replication?

Unwinding of the DNA double helix and synthesis of new complementary strands.

Replication of RNA and protein synthesis.

Separation of chromosomes and cell division.

Transcription of mRNA and translation into proteins.

Which of the following best describes semi-conservative DNA replication?

Each new DNA molecule contains one original strand and one newly synthesized strand.

The entire original DNA molecule is used as a template for the new molecule.

Newly synthesized strands combine randomly with old strands.

The original DNA molecule is broken down and new strands are synthesized from scratch.

What is the base pair rule for DNA?

A pairs with T, and C pairs with G.

A pairs with C, and T pairs with G.

G pairs with T, and A pairs with C.

C pairs with A, and T pairs with G.

What is the base pair rule for RNA?

A pairs with U, C pairs with G.

A pairs with U, T pairs with C.

G pairs with A, U pairs with C.

A pairs with T, C pairs with G.

What is Chargaff's Rule?

A=T and C=G in DNA. amounts are equal

A=T and C=A in proteins. amounts are equal

A=G and C=T in DNA. amounts are equal

A=C and T=G in RNA. amounts are equal

What is an anti-codon and where is it found?

An anti-codon is found on tRNA and corresponds to a codon in mRNA.

An anti-codon is a sequence of DNA that codes for amino acids.

An anti-codon is a type of protein found in the nucleus.

An anti-codon is found on mRNA and corresponds to a codon in tRNA.

what are the steps of DNA Translation ?

Initiation (reading the codons), elongation (connecting amino acids), and termination (stop codon is reached).

Elongation (amino acids are connected), modification (changes made), and termination (stop codon)

Initiation (reading codons), replication (copying codes), and termination (stop codon)

Replication (copying codes), transcription (reading the code), and translation (understanding the code)

What does semiconservative mean as it related to DNA?

Semiconservative means that during DNA replication, each new DNA molecule contains one original strand and one newly synthesized strand.

Semiconservative refers to the process where DNA is replicated in a non-linear fashion.

Semiconservative indicates that DNA strands are completely new and do not contain any original material.

Semiconservative means that DNA replication results in two identical copies of the original strand.
