Unit 08-DNA, Protein synthesis

QuestionAnswer
What is the process name for when DNA makes a copy of itself? Replication
If mutations occur in this type of cell, it can be passed on to offspring? gametes
What type of bond attaches the amino acids together to form a protein? peptide bond
What type of bond holds the bases together in the DNA double helix? hydrogen bonds
What is the enzyme used during transcription that will unwind DNA and add nucleotides to create a mRNA strand? RNA polymerase
What is the process name for when the mRNA strand is used to make a protein? Translation
What type of mutation has DNA bases switching places? Inversions
What is the enzyme that unwinds the DNA during replication? DNA helicase
What are the 3 parts of a nucleotide? sugar, phosphate, base
If an original DNA is represented as: 12345 And the mutated one is represented as: 126345 What type of mutation is this? Addition

After transcription the mRNA leaves the ______ and goes to the __________. nucleus, ribosome
Are all mutations harmful? no, some have no change, some are beneficial
What is the enzyme that will put strands together during replication? DNA ligase
This type of category of mutations are when the multiples of 3 (codons) change. Frameshift mutation

What are the 3 bases called on a mRNA strand? codon
What is the enzyme that will add nucleotides and proofreads during replication? DNA polymerase
What is the process name for making mRNA from a DNA gene? transcription
This type of category of mutations are based upon a single base pair change. Point mutations

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.
