QuestionAnswer
Anticodon binding site for being the correct codon
Cistrons individual genes in an operon
Coupling simultaneous synthesis of RNA and protein
Metabolic pathway series of enzymes needed to complete a task and produce an end product such as an amino acid
Operon gene cluster that is cotranscribed
Pathway set of genes used for a complete task
Polysomes structures with multiple ribosomes held together by the mRNA thread
Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) RNA molecules are used in enzymatic processes--ribosomes are riboproteins--contain both rRNA and roteins in very large complexes
RNA polymerase enzyme responsible for transcription--DNA-dependent RNA polymerase, DDRP
Transcription step in molecular biology that follows DNA replication
Transfer RNA (tRNA) important in protein synthesis--bring needed amino acids to appropriate site for addition during protein elongation
Translation (protein synthesis) ribosomes--enzymes that perform translation--process by which mRNA is translated from language of nucleotides into language of amino acids
Triplet each codon consists of three ribonucleotides in a row

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
