Gene -Part of a DNA strand that carries information for 1 inherited trait. -A small segment of ordered nucleotides or nucleic acids.
Chromosome -In the nucleus. -Is made of DNA. -Usually come in pairs.
DNA -DeoxyriboNucleic Acid. -Contains all the hereditary information for its living organism.
Supercoil Very long strand twisted into tiny space.
Protein Peptide chain made of Amino Acid links.
Nucleus Center of a cell. Contains DNA.
Eukaryotic cells Complex cells that have a nucleus.
Sequence order
genetic the study of genes or heredity.
Template pattern for future copies
Heredity traits inherited from one generation of a living thing to the next.
Helix twisted
replication make copies of
mutation -change in DNA. -Change in the nucleotide sequence of DNA.
Ribosomes produce proteins
Amino Acids links in protein chains or peptide chains.
Peptide chains protein chains made of Amino Acid links
Differentiation differences
Variation differences among similar things.
mRNA -Messenger RNA. -Carries the DNA code to the tRNA so that more DNA can be produced.
tRNA -Transfer RNA. -Translates the DNA code received from the mRNA into the real thing by building the proteins the DNA code requires.
Where is DNA located? Chromosomes
Where are chromosomes located? Nucleus of eukaryotic cell
What is another name for nucleotides? Nucleic Acids

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.
