Question
Answer
Avery   results not accepted by most scientists, transformation prevented by DNA destroying enzymes, DNA was the genetic material  
Hershey and Chase   added to Avery’s work, radioactive tracers, DNA stores genetic information  
DNA   sugar is deoxyribose, double helix, made of nucleotides  
Nucleotide   phosphate, sugar, nitrogen base  
RNA   sugar is ribose, one strand, uracil instead of thymine, ESSAY=name and describe 3 types  
Messenger   delivers information to ribosomes  
Transfer   carries amino acids to mRNA  
Ribosomal   makes ribosomes  
Franklin   X ray diffraction, discovered helical shape  
Wilkins and Franklin   first to suggest DNA was helix  
Replication   occurs before cell division, one mistake every billion nucleotides, two complimentary strands unwind and unzip while being duplicated, ESSAY=describe process  
Helicase   breaks hydrogen bonds, enzyme  
DNA Polymerase   check for errors during replication, add nucleotides during replication  
Translation   anticodon bonds to codon and releases amino acid into a chain, involves mRNA and tRNA, occurs at ribosomes  
Genetic Code   same in all organisms, use table  
Mutations   insertion, deletion, substitution  
Insertion   a base is added  
Deletion   a base is left out  
Substitution   a base is put in place of another  
Griffith   caused harmless bacteria to become deadly,  
Watson and Crick   DNA is double stranded and twists into a double helix, established structure of DNA  
Chargaff’s rule   A=T, C=G  
Transcription   messenger RNA is produced,  
Codon   nucleotide triplet specifies for specific amino acid  
Ribosomes   3 binding sites during translation
