|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| complementary base pairing | either of the nucleotide bases linked by a hydrogen bond on opposite strands of DNA or double-stranded RNA
🗑
|
||||
| DNA helicase | DNA helicases are essential during DNA replication because they separate double-stranded DNA into single strands allowing each strand to be copied.
🗑
|
||||
| DNA polymerase | The DNA polymerases are enzymes that create DNA molecules by assembling nucleotides
🗑
|
||||
| recombinant DNA | DNA that has been formed artificially by combining constituents from different organisms.
🗑
|
||||
| replication | Copying a strand of DNA to replicate it
🗑
|
||||
| semi-conservative replication | Semi-conservative replication would produce two copies that each contained one of the original strands and one new strand.
🗑
|
||||
| anti-codon | a sequence of three nucleotides forming a unit of genetic code in a transfer RNA molecule, corresponding to a complementary codon in messenger RNA.
🗑
|
||||
| codon | a sequence of three nucleotides that together form a unit of genetic code in a DNA or RNA molecule.
🗑
|
||||
| DNA sequence | the nucleotide triplets of DNA and RNA molecules that carry genetic information in living cells
🗑
|
||||
| elongation | The tRNA transfers an amino acid to the tRNA corresponding to the next codon
🗑
|
||||
| environmental mutagen | a physical or chemical agent that changes the genetic material
🗑
|
||||
| genetic disorder | a genetic problem caused by one or more abnormalities in the genome
🗑
|
||||
| initiation | involves the small subunit of the ribosome binding to the 5' end of mRNA
🗑
|
||||
| messenger RNA | the form of RNA in which genetic information transcribed from DNA as a sequence of bases is transferred to a ribosome.
🗑
|
||||
| mutation | the changing of the structure of a gene, resulting in a variant form that may be transmitted to subsequent generations
🗑
|
||||
| termination | Ending the sequence
🗑
|
||||
| transcription | the process by which the information in a strand of DNA is copied into a new molecule of messenger RNA
🗑
|
||||
| transfer RNA | RNA consisting of folded molecules that transport amino acids from the cytoplasm of a cell to a ribosome.
🗑
|
||||
| translation | the process in which cellular ribosomes create proteins
🗑

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.
