QuestionAnswer
Translation involves the assembling of proteins. Which of the following forms of RNA is responsible for carrying a formed amino acid to the protein assembly site during translation tRNA
What is a major difference between DNA replication and DNA transcription? RNA molecules produced by transcription are much shorter in length than DNA molecules produced by replication.
In eukaryotic organisms, DNA transcription occurs in the _______ of a cell. nucleus
A sequence of nucleotides is shown below. ATGAAAGCCTATGCACCA proteins
When a molecule of double-stranded DNA undergoes replication, it results in two double-stranded DNA molecules, each composed of one new and one old strand.
Genetic mutations in somatic, or body, cells can cause the cells to change or grow uncontrollably. What disease most likely results from this type of genetic mutation? cancer
The cells that line the small intestine produce enzymes that break large sugar molecules down into single sugars called monosaccharides. The enzyme lactase helps humans digest the lactose disaccharide molecule. In some cultures, dairy products are not Their bodies cannot digest as much lactose as other people's bodies.
Which of the following best describes the product of RNA translation? a protein
During a stage of protein synthesis, codons in mRNA molecules are used to specify the sequence of amino acids in polypeptide chains. What is this process called? translation.
Sometimes, during the process of replication, the DNA code is copied incorrectly, and an incorrect nucleotide is attached to the new strand of DNA. mutation
The nucleotide of DNA is one large molecule composed of three smaller molecules. Which of the following sets of molecules bond together to form a nucleotide? deoxyribose, a nitrogen base, a phosphate group
DNA and RNA are made of nucleotide bases, but they are slightly different. Which of these RNA bases pairs with Cytosine? Guanine.
In multicellular organisms, the process of differentiation produces cells that are specialized to perform specific functions. For example, one cell may become a red blood cell, whose function is to transport oxygen throughout the body. Another cell may be The DNA is the same, but different genes are activated.
During the process shown above, the two strands of one DNA molecule are unwound. Then, DNA polymerases add complementary nucleotides to each strand which results in the formation of two identical DNA molecules. replication.
After the process of _______ occurs, each daughter cell receives an exact copy of the parent cell's DNA. DNA replication.
Which of the following best describes the product of DNA transcription? an RNA molecule
Which of the following molecules is the subunit of DNA that links together to form strands of DNA? a nucleotide.
Which of the following is a true statement about codons? In translation, an mRNA codon is recognized by its complementary tRNA.
Stem cells are undifferentiated cells that have the ability to continue to grow and divide in their nonspecialized state for long periods of time (e.g., months or years). different patterns in their gene expression.
Genetic mutations in somatic, or body, cells can cause the cells to change or grow uncontrollably. What disease most likely results from this type of genetic mutation? cancer
Translation involves the assembling of proteins. Which of the following forms of RNA is responsible for carrying a formed amino acid to the protein assembly site during translation? tRNA
During the process shown above, the two strands of one DNA molecule are unwound. Then, DNA polymerases add complementary nucleotides to each strand which results in the formation of two identical DNA molecules. replication.

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.
