ORGANELLES/NUCLEUS/PROTEIN SYNTESIS
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| SITE OF PROTEIN SYNTHESIS, COMPOSED OF RNA | RIBOSOMES |
| INVOLVED IN LIPID AND CARBOHYDRATE SYNTHESIS | SMOOTH ER |
| INVOLVED IN MODIFICATION AND PACKAGING OF NEWLY SYNTHESIZED PROTEINS | ROUGH ER |
| storage, modification, and packaging of synthesized products (contains cisternae, forming face, maturing face); packages final products in membrane renewal vesicles, secretory vesicles, or lysosomes | GOLGI APPARATUS |
| produce most ATP in cell, break down of pyruvate molecules into carbon dioxide and hydrogen | MITOCHONDRIA |
| vesicles containing degradative enzymes | PEROXISOMES |
| double membrane with perinuclear space, nuclear pores | NUCLEAR ENVELOPE |
| synthesize rRNA | NUCLEOLI |
| fluid contents of nucleus | NUCLEOPLASM |
| complexes with DNA strands coiled around histone molecules | NUCLEOSOMES |
| In cells that are not dividing, BLANK are loosely coiled into fine chromatin filaments | NUCLEOSOMES |
| At start of cell division, BLANK become tightly coiled into chromosomes, with two DNA molecules held together at a centromere | NUCLEOSOMES |
| sequence of DNA nucleotides needed to produce a specific protein | GENE |
| sequence of three nitrogenous bases that specifies one amino acid | TRIPLET |
| (takes place in nucleus): DNA strand (template strand) is used as a pattern to produce mRNA, using an enzyme called RNA polymerase | TRANSCRIPTION |
| triplet of mRNA nucleotides that specifies one amino acid | CODON |
| (takes place in cytoplasm): mRNA is used as a pattern to produce a protein, using tRNA molecules to transfer amino acids to the ribosome site | TRANSLATION |
| triplet of tRNA nucleotides that specifies one amino acid | ANTICODON |
