Dna

Question 1

What is a codon

Answer 1

Sequence of 3 dna/rna that corresponds with a specific amino acid or stop signal

Question 2

Three phases of translation

Answer 2

1) initiation= ribosomes assemble around target mRNA, First tRNA is attached to the start codon
2) elongation= last tRNA transfers the amino acid to the large ribosomal subunit which binds it to the previous one (transpeptidation)
3) termination= stop codon, ribosome releases polypeptide

Question 3

What is a genome

Answer 3

Entire genetic material present in a cell of an organism

Question 4

What do tRNA carry

Answer 4

Specific amino acids
