Unit 2 Human BIo set

Human Biology

QuestionAnswer
1. Step one of transcription
RNA polymerase (complex) binds to the promoter region
Recognition sites
Transcribed region
in
Copy link
3'
DNA
Promoter
The RNA polymerase complex contains the enzyme (RNA polymerase) and some other parts known as transcription factors. These include a factor that works like helicase...
This transcription factor breaks the hydrogen bonds between the bases of a short segment of the DNA.
3

DNA
Single-stranded template
3. Elongation
The RNA polymerase recruits RNA nucleotides that are complementary to the template strand. Joining them on (and together) in a 5' to 3' direction
The enzme complex moves along the strand, opening up only the section required. As the DNA strands rejoin behind the enzyme, the RNA molecule separates from the template strand.
coding strand 5'
ATGATCTCGTAA
RNA 5'
A
Template strand 3i TACTAGAGCATT
- 5'
4. Termination
Something about the DNA code tells the enzyme to stop producing the RNA. There are many ways the code can do this and you don't need to know them!
The enzyme and the RNA strand disconnect from the DNA strand. The RNA strand is known as pre-mRNA

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.
