Question
Answer
DNA   contains the unique genetic code for each organism  
🗑
Gene   a section of DNA that codes for a particular protein  
🗑
Chromosome   an organized section of DNA (humans have 46 chromosomes)  
🗑
Nucleotide   Made up of one sugar, one phosphate and one base; these line up and pair up to make DNA  
🗑
Synthesis   to build or to make from simple to complex  
🗑
Protein Synthesis   using the DNA code to line amino acids in the correct order to make a protein  
🗑
amino acids   the small parts that chain together in a specific order to make a protein  
🗑
mRNA   a copy of the DNA code that can leave the nucleus and travel to the ribosome  
🗑
tRNA   these transfer the amino acids to the ribosome  
🗑
ribosome   the location of Protein Synthesis in cells  
🗑
nitrogen bases   The four bases (A,T,C,G) that line up to make the DNA code
