Genetic code is ______ meaning each codon read only once in translation non-overlapping
Genetic code is Universal
Genetic code is ______ meaning 18 out of 20 amino acids are coded by two or more codons degenerate and redundant
Genetic code has a start and stop signal
linear sequence of nucleotides with a fixed start point and end point and encodes a polypeptide, a tRNA, or an rRNA gene
gene that encodes a polypeptide cistron
organization of codons such that they can be read to give rise to a gene product reading frame

Transcription starts at (TATA box) promoter DNA
Transcription ends at terminator DNA
What is the enzyme responsible for the production of the RNA molecule? RNA polymerase

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.
