Question
Answer
genome   The entire gene sequence of an organism.  
🗑
termination signal   The sequence that tells RNA polymerase that the gene for the protein is complete.  
🗑
genetic code   Rules for how the sequence of bases must be put together to create a particular protein.  
🗑
codon   Three letter sequence on mRNA.  
🗑
anticodon   Three letter sequence on tRNA.  
🗑
mRNA   Takes the code from the nucleus to the ribosomes.  
🗑
tRNA   Brings the correct amino acid in to the ribosome as it matches the mRNA codon.  
🗑
rRNA   ’Spot-Welds’ the amino acids together.  
🗑
RNA polymerase   The enzyme of transcription.  
🗑
protein synthesis   Transcription and translation equals this...  
🗑
ribose   The sugar of RNA  
🗑
promoter   Tells RNA polymerase where to start transcribing a gene for a protein.  
🗑
transcription   This process occurs in the nucleus with DNA and mRNA.  
🗑
translation   This process occurs in the ribosome with rRNA, mRNA, and tRNA.  
🗑
RNA-ribonucleic acid   A nucleic acid that is single stranded and has uracil instead of thymine.  
🗑


   

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.
