Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

nucleotides   sugar, phosphate, and base  
🗑
Adenine and Guanine   Purines  
🗑
Cytosine and Thymine   Pyrimidine's  
🗑
The process of copying DNA in a cell is called   Replication  
🗑
Structure of RNA   repeating units  
🗑
Differs from DNA   sugar is ribose, thymine is not present, RNA is single stranded  
🗑
Types of DNA?   mRNA, tRNA, rRNA  
🗑
Transcription   process by which genetic information is copied from DNA to RNA  
🗑
Protein Synthesis   the production of proteins  
🗑
Genetic Code   a correlation between a nucleotide sequence and an amino acid sequence  
🗑
3 mRNA nucleotides   codon  
🗑
Start codon   AUG  
🗑
Stop codon   UAA, UAG, UGA  
🗑
Translation   The process of assembling polypeptides from information encoded in mRNA  
🗑
Anticodon   the loop opposite of the site of amino acid attachment bears a sequence of three nucleotides  
🗑
Ribosomes   are composed of rRNA and proteins and are free in the cytoplasm and attached to the endoplasmic reticulum  
🗑
Double Helix   bases face toward the center and face the base of other chains with which they form hydrogen bonds.  
🗑
Deoxyribose   five-carbon sugar in a DNA nucleotide  
🗑
Nitrogenous base   an organic base that contains nitrogen, and subunit of nucleotide in a DNA and RNA  
🗑
Purine   Nitrogenous bases that have a double ring of carbon and nitrogen atoms such as adenine and guanine.  
🗑
Pyrimidine   Nitrogenous bases that have a single ting of carbon and nitrogen atoms such as cytosine an thymine  
🗑
base-paring rules   the rules stating that cytosine pairs with guanine and adenine pairs with the thymine in DNA  
🗑
Complementary base pairs   cytosine on one strand pairs with guanine on the opposite strand, and thymine  
🗑
base sequence   The order of nitrogenous bases on a chain of DNA  
🗑
DNA replication   is the process by which DNA is copied in a cell before a cell divides by mitosis, meiosis, or binary fission.  
🗑
Helicase   An enzyme that separates DNA strands  
🗑
Replication fork   Y-shaped point that results when two strands of DNA  
🗑
DNA polymerase   An enzyme that catalyzes the formation of DNA molecule  
🗑
semi-conservative replication   In each new DNA double helix, one strand is from the original molecule, and one strand is new  
🗑
Mutation   A change in he nucleotide \-base sequence od a gene or DNA molecule  
🗑


   

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.
