WorksheetsProtein Synthesis
Total questions: 27
Worksheet time: 16mins
In what process is mRNA synthesized?
Transcription
Translation
DNA Replication
Mitosis
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
How are DNA and RNA different? (CHECK ALL THAT APPLY)
Only DNA can leave the nucleus
RNA contains Thymine; DNA contains Uracil
DNA is double stranded, RNA is a single stranded
DNA contains Thymine, RNA contains Uracil
Which organelle contains rRNA and reads the mRNA to synthesize a protein?
Ribosome
Nucleus
Cytoplasm
Nucleotide
Choose the sequence of the mRNA strand that would match up with to the following DNA strand:
GTACAT
CATGTA
GAUCUA
CAUGUA
CUTGTU
What brings the amino acids to the ribosome to assemble a protein?
DNA
When these bond together, they form a protein
Amino Acids
Peptide Bonds
Ribose
Nucleotides
Which anticodon would be placed in spot #2
GGC
CCA
GGA
GGT
Which process does this diagram illustrate?
transcription
DNA replication
translation
What determines the shape and function of a protein?
The sequence of amino acids
The type of ribosome that assembles the protein
The cell that manufactures the protein
True or False: mRNA contains anticodons and tRNA contains codons.
True
False
Which organelle is the location where protein is made?
Ribosome
Nucleus
Cytoplasm
Nucleotide
During transcription, this type of ribonucleic acid is responsible for copying the DNA and brining it out of the nucleus.
tRNA
mRNA
rRNA
dRNA
When these bond together, they form a protein
Amino Acids
Peptide Bonds
Ribose
Nucleotides
What is the location in the cell for translation?
Cytoplasm
Nucleus
Lysosome
Golgi apparatus
What is true of Central Dogma?
Only Eukaryotes use this
DNA to mRNA to Protein
Only humans use this
rRNA make DNA strands
Which enzyme is involved in protein synthesis?
Ligase
DNA polymerase
RNA polymerase
Helicase
You use the codon chart to find the correct _______
sugar
nitrogen base
phosphate
amino acid
What nucleotide always matches with Adenine in DNA
Thymine
Guanine
Cytosine
Uracil
The strand of DNA bases needs to be Transcribed into mRNA. ACTGTA what are the bases of mRNA ? (remember it is RNA)
TGACAT
UGACAU
What is the shape of a DNA strand?
Round
Single Stranded
Double Helix
