QuestionAnswer
First step in translation mRNA exits the nucleus and attaches to a ribosome
Second step in translation Ribosome reads the message in sets of 3 bases (codons)
third step in translation Transfer RNA molecules bring in AMINO ACIDS that will be linked together to build a protein
ENZYMES Speed up chemical reactions by lowering activation energy
Endoplasmic Reticulum an extensive network of membrane-enclosed tubules and sacs within the cytoplasm
Golgi Apparatus a complex of vesicles and folded membranes within the cytoplasm of most eukaryotic cells, involved in secretion and intracellular transport
Vesicles a small, membrane-bound sac within a cell that transports, stores, or digests cellular substances like proteins and lipids
First step in finalizing a Protein Folded into a functional shape as it travels the Endoplasmic Reticulum
Second step in finalizing a Protein Complete proteins will be processed by the Golgi Apparatus: sorted, tagged for their destination, and packaged into vesicles
Primary straight chain of amino acids
Secondary chain of amino acids folds into helix or pleated sheets
Tertiary secondary structure begins to fold in on itself; protein takes on a globular shape, this is where most proteins become functional
Quaternary 2 or more amino acid chains working together as a functional protein
DENATURING Extreme conditions (heat, pH, salinity) can change the functional shape of protein
Central Dogma DNA instructions > mRNA instructions > final protein
Point mutation a genetic mutation that changes a single nucleotide base within a DNA or RNA sequence, which can be a substitution, insertion, or deletion
Frameshift Mutations a type of genetic mutation where a DNA insertion or deletion that is not a multiple of three nucleotides disrupts the standard "reading frame" during protein synthesis
Missense point mutation base change leads to an amino acid change
Nonsensepoint mutation base change leads to a stop codon
Silentpoint mutation change in amino acid does not cause an amino acid change
Deletion frameshift mutation the removal of one or more nucleotides from a DNA sequence that isn't a multiple of three, disrupting the triplet reading frame during translation.
Addition frameshift mutation a genetic alteration where one or more nucleotides are inserted into a DNA sequence in a number that is not a multiple of three.
Translocation a portion of one chromosome is relocated to an entirely different chromosome
Inversion a section of a chromosome reverses the order of genetic information

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.
