Mitosis Meiosis DNA RNA Protein Synthesis
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Part of cell cycle where DNA is replicated | S phase |
| Part of the cell cycle where the cell grows | G1 and G2 phase |
| First phase of mitosis | Prophase |
| Phase of mitosis where chromosomes become visible | Prophase |
| Phase of mitosis where chromosomes line up in the middle | Metaphase |
| Phase of mitosis where chromosomes separate to the poles of the cell | Anaphase |
| Phase of mitosis where the two new nuclei form | Telophase |
| Phase of the cell cycle where the cytoplasm divides | Cytokinesis |
| Cell that contains 2 copies of each homologous chromosome | Diploid |
| Cell that contains 1 copy of each homologous chromosome | Haploid |
| Produces gametes | Meiosis |
| Produces body cells | Mitosis |
| Made of a deoxyribose, phosphate group and a nitrogen base (ATCG) | DNA nucleotide |
| In DNA, Adenine (A) pairs with | Thymine (T) |
| In DNA, Cytosine (C) pairs with | Guanine (G) |
| In DNA, Thymine (T) pairs with | Adenine (A) |
| In DNA, Guanine pairs with | Cytosine (C) |
| DNA is copied during the process of | replication |
| How many types of RNA are there? | 3 |
| This type of RNA is in Ribosomes | rRNA |
| This type of RNA brings amino acids to the ribosome to make a protein | tRNA |
| This type of RNA carries the DNA message to the ribosome for translation | mRNA |
| Double stranded, bases ATCG | DNA |
| Single stranded, bases AUCG | RNA |
| Scientists who discovered the structure of DNA | Watson and Crick |
| The process of making mRNA from DNA | Transcription |
| The process of using mRNA to make a protein at the ribosome | Translation |
| mRNA is read in triplets called | codons |
