Q

why do one and two ringed structures connect to each other

A

to make the DNA structure fairly even with 3 ring on every base pair

16
Q

Proteins

A

Makes up muscle, hormones, connective tissue, blood, antibodies, hair, nail, ETC

17
Q

Why are proteins ALL shaped differently

A
  1. hydrophilic/phobic
  2. basic or acidic
  3. positive/negative charge
  4. the AA can change how the Quaternary structure is formed
18
Q

glabular

A

it is used to describe proteins because of there weird shapes

19
Q

mRNA

A

it decodes the AA of a polypeptide, directed by DNA, and happens during transcription

20
Q

polypeptide

A

a group of AA

21
Q

rRNA

A

makes up ribosomes which makes mRNA to a protein

22
Q

tRNA (train car)

A

brings the AA to the ribosomes during translation

23
Q

Central dogma

A

it is a 2 step process that takes DNA’s info and makes proteins for the organism

24
Q

Where does central dogma occur?

A

It happens in every cell but it is always different

25
transcription
it synthesis's mRNA from DNA and happens in nucleus of eukaryotic cells
26
translation
product of a protein from a code off of mRNA that happens in the cytoplasm on a ribosome
27
exon
AA coding segments that are used in proteins
28
intron
segments that are needed for the protein and are removed to make mRNA
29
promotor
the beginning of the gene were DNA starts to unwind
30
substitution
one base pair is replaced by another EX. A for a C
31
Insertion
one or more base pairs are added to a sequence
32
deletion
one or more base pairs are lost from a sequences
33
silent mutations
when the base pair is changed but the AA doesn't change
34
substitution
when the base pair changes and it only changes ONE amino acid
35
premature stop
when a base pair changes so that a stop codon is created and it stops to early
36
codon deletion or codon insertion
when a whole new amino acid is added or removed
37
frame shift mutation
when a base pair is changed at the beginning of the code and it changes the whole sequences
38
know how to translate DNA to mRNA
DNA unwinds and nitrogenous basesare paired with one of the strings until terminator is reached and mRNA breaks off
39
know how to translate mRNA into proteins
rRNA codes for the first 3 nitrogenous bases and calls for an amino acid until stop codon is reached and protein is made
