RNA & TranscriptionTranslation 1 Translation 2
MutationDNA and
Replication
These are the three molecules found in an RNA nucleotide. (Give the sugar’s full name)
What is ribose, phosphate, and a base (adenine, cytosine, guanine, or
uracil)?
AUCGGAUCA is a sequence of (pick one: DNA or RNA)
This is where transcription takes place.
What is the nucleus?
The strand of DNA that bonds with RNA nucleotides to make an
mRNA molecule is called this.
What is the template strand?
If a strand of DNA is TACGGC, this is the mRNA sequence that it
transcribes.
In translation, this is molecule that bonds to mRNA.
Every 3 nucleotide bases on mRNA is called a/an _____, and the 3 corresponding nucleotide bases on a tRNA is called a/an
______.
What is codon, anticodon?
The region of a chromosome that codes for one protein is called
a/an ________
If a DNA sequence is TTC GAG, what will the mRNA and tRNA
sequences be?
What is AAG CUC; UUC GAG?
If a tRNA sequence is AGG UCC, this is the amino acid
sequence.
What is Serine-Arginine?
This is what mRNA and tRNA are short for.
What are messenger ribonucleic acid, and transfer ribonucleic
acid?
This is the organelle where translation takes place in the cell.
What is the ribosome?
Every tRNA anticodon specifies one of these.
What is an amino acid?
This is how many nucleotides code for five amino acids.
These are the codons which specify the amino acid threonine.
What are ACA, ACC, ACG, and ACU?
This is what a mutation is.
What is a change in a DNA sequence?
If the DNA sequence ATGCCG is mutated to TTGCCG, this was an
example of a/an:A. Insertion mutationB. Deletion mutation
C. Point or Substitution mutation D. Chromosomal abnormality
What is C. Point or substitution mutation?
This is why a frameshift/insertion/deletion
mutation is more likely to have a severe effect on a trait than a point/substitution mutation.
Because a point mutation changes one amino acid at most, while a frameshift mutation changes the entire sequence after it happens.
If a DNA sequence is mutated from AGG GGT to AGC GGT, this will be the
effect on the amino acid sequence.
No effect; the amino acid sequence will still be Serine-Proline.
This is why a mutation can change an organism’s trait.
What is: Because a change in the DNA sequence changes the
sequences of mRNA, tRNA, and amino acids, which changes the structure of the protein, which
changes its function, which results in a different trait?
This is a very long supercoiled strand of DNA, tightly wound
around proteins and made up of regions called genes.
What is a chromosome?
This is the molecule in the backbone (or outside) of DNA
that nucleic acids bond to.
What is deoxyribose?
These are the three components of a nucleotide.
What are deoxyribose/sugar, a phosphate, and a nucleic
acid/base/nitrogenous base
DNA Replication results in two DNA molecules,
A. each with two new strands.B. one with two new strands and one
with two original strands.C. each with two original strands.
D. each with one new strand and one original strand.
What is D. each with one new strand and one original strand?
If one strand of DNA is TAGGATCAGA, this is the sequence of the other strand.
What is ATCCTAGTCT?
