dna and protein synthesis

Question 1

rRNA does and where

Answer 1

makes up ribosome; manufactured in nucleolus

Question 2

tRNA does and where

Answer 2

attaches to one amino acid and brings to ribosome

Question 3

mRNA does and where

Answer 3

made in nucleus by transcription, carries directions to make proteins from nucleus/DNA to cytoplasm

Question 4

replication

Answer 4

when ladder “splits in half” and complementary nucleotides fill in

Question 5

transcription

Answer 5

how mRNA is made, ladder temporarily “unzips” and mRNA is made and leaves

Question 6

translation

Answer 6

how proteins are made; mRNA codon gets read to make proteins

Question 7

chromosomal mutation example

Answer 7

deletion, duplication, inversion, and translocation

Question 8

gene mutation example

Answer 8

substitution, deletion and addition (frameshift)

Question 9

mutagens

Answer 9

electromagnetic radiation and particulate radiation

Question 10

Griffith and Avery

Answer 10

genetic inheritance and “transforming principle”

Question 11

Hershey and Chase

Answer 11

virus (bacteriophages) and radioactive isotopes

Question 12

Levene

Answer 12

discovered nucleotide and and ribose and deoxyribose

Question 13

Chargaff

Answer 13

rules of base pairings a=t, c=g

Question 14

Franklin and Wilkins

Answer 14

first/best x-ray model of double helix

Question 15

Watson and Crick

Answer 15

created the DNA model

Question 16

what are nucleotides made up of

Answer 16

a phosphate, 5-carbon sugar, and two types of nitrogenous bases (purines and pyrimidines)
