DNA

What shape is the DNA molecule?

When parental strands of DNA separate, serve as templates, and produce DNA molecules that have one strand of parental DNA and one strand of new DNA is called this.

enzyme that is responsible for unwinding and unzipping the double helix

enzyme that adds the new nucleotides to the parental strand of replicating DNA

this nucleic acid contains uracil instead of thymine, is single stranded, and made up of ribose sugar

this strand of RNA 'reads' the DNA information in the nucleus and then takes it out of the nucleus to the ribosome

this RNA associates with proteins to form ribosomes in the cytoplasm

smaller segments of RNA that transport amino acids to the ribosome

process where mRNA is synthesized from DNA in the nucleus

What is the central dogma of biology?

sequences found on the DNA that do not get copied onto the RNA are called this

the coding sequences that get transferred from DNA to RNA are called this

the three base code in DNA or mRNA that determines which amino acid will be used is called this

process where the mRNA connects to a ribosome and is 'read' in order to build a protein

the ability of a gene to regulate which genes are transcribed in response to the environment

a permanent change in the DNA

a substance that causes mutations in the DNA are called this

4 types of mutations are

Adenine combines with ___ in DNA

Cytosine combines with _____ in DNA

Adenine combines with ____ in RNA

the three basic building blocks of DNA are these

Scientific team who discovered the double helix shape of DNA

Rule that states the combination pattern of A with T and C with G
