DNA and protein synt

QuestionAnswer
transcription the process where the DNA sequence in a gene is copied into mRNA
translation the process where genetic information coded in mRNA directs the formation of a specific protein at a ribosome
mRNA type of RNA that carries instructions from DNA in the nucleus to the ribosome
tRNA type of RNA that carries amino acids to the ribosome
codon sequence of three bases on a strand of mRNA that provides genetic code information for a particular amino acid
anticodon group of three bases on a tRNA molecule that are complementary to an mRNA codon
complementary base pairing In DNA, T pairs with A; G pairs with C; RNA, U pairs with A and G pairs with C
cytoplasm A jellylike fluid inside the cell in which the organelles are suspended
ribosome organelles at which proteins are synthesized.
nucleus Membrane bound organelle in eukaryotes containing DNA
amino acid building block/monomer of proteins
adenine pairs with uracil in RNA
cytosine pairs with guanine
nitrogenous bases adenine, guanine, cytosine, thymine, uracail
deoxyribose sugar in DNA
ribose sugar in RNA
nucleotide consists of a phosphate group, sugar, and nitrogen base
ribosome organelle where amino acids are bonded together to form proteins
codon three-base sequence on messenger RNA that codes for a single amino acid
DNA A double-stranded, helical nucleic acid molecule capable of replicating and determining the inherited structure of a cell's proteins
the nitrogen containing base that is found only in RNA is uracil
what anticodon would line up with the codon UAC AUG
in DNA, what base pairs with cytosine guanine
what type of RNA has anticodons? tRNA
what do stop codons code for the end of an amino acid chain
UAC codes for Tyrosine
AGG codes for Arginine
nucleotide monomer of nucleic acids made up of a 5-carbon sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base
DNA vs RNA deoxyribose sugar vs. ribose sugar, thymine vs. uracil , double strand vs. single strand
rna structure single stranded

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.
