|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Anticodon | 3 nitrogen bases one end of a tRNA molecule that carries amino acids.
🗑
|
||||
| Codon – | 3 nitrogen base sequence for mRNA that codes an amino acid
🗑
|
||||
| Complementary base pairing – | cytosine, uracil, adenine, guanine, and thymine
🗑
|
||||
| DNA | a nucleic acid which stores the genetic information
🗑
|
||||
| Gene | A discrete unit of hereditary information that codes for a trait
🗑
|
||||
| mRNA – | made from DNA in the nucleus that codes for an amino acid
🗑
|
||||
| nitrogenous base | An organic base that contains the element nitrogen found in DNA/RNA
🗑
|
||||
| nucleotide | The building block of a nucleic acid, consisting of a five
🗑
|
||||
| peptide bonds – | joins amino acids together to form a protein
🗑
|
||||
| transcription | The synthesis of mRNA from a DNA template
🗑
|
||||
| translation | The synthesis of a polypeptide using the genetic information encoded in an mRNA molecule. There is a change of "language" from nucleotides to amino acids.
🗑
|
||||
| tRNA | functions as an interpreter between nucleic acid and protein language by picking up specific amino acids and recognizing the appropriate codons in the mRNA.
🗑
|
||||
| differentiation | The structural and functional divergence of cells as they become specialized during their development; dependent on the control of gene expression.
🗑
|
||||
| gene regulation | the various systems that control and determine which genes are switched on and off, and when, how long, and to what extent the genes are expressed.
🗑

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
To hide a column, click on the column name.
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
