|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ribonucleic acid | it is called Rna and it is a nucleic acid
🗑
|
||||
| uracil | it is a nitrogen containing base that Rna has
🗑
|
||||
| gene expression | processing information from Dna into proteins
🗑
|
||||
| transcription | the information in DNA is transferred to mRNA
🗑
|
||||
| translation | the information in mRNA is used to make a protein
🗑
|
||||
| RNA polymerase | when an enyme binds to the beggining of a gene on a region of dna, a promoter
🗑
|
||||
| promoter | a specific sequence that acts as a start signal for transcription
🗑
|
||||
| terminator | a sequence of bases that tells the RNA polymerase to stop adding nucleotides
🗑
|
||||
| Messenger RNA | an RNA copy of a gene used as a blue print for a protein
🗑
|
||||
| Transfer RNA | it acts as an interpreter molecule. It translates mRNA sequences into amino acid sequences
🗑
|
||||
| Ribosomal RNA | it is the organelles thast function as the sites of translation
🗑
|
||||
| codons | the instructions for building a protein. it is also three nucleotide sequences.
🗑
|
||||
| genetic code | amino acids and stop signals that are coded for each of the possible mRNA codons
🗑
|
||||
| anticodon | a three nucleotide sequence
🗑
|
||||
| The A site | it holds a tRNA molecule that is carrying it's specific amino acid
🗑
|
||||
| The P site | holds a tRNA molecule that is carrying it's specific amino acid attached to the growing protein chain
🗑

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
To hide a column, click on the column name.
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
