DNA Replication

Question 1

DNA CODE (single strand)

Answer 1

Is the name given to the sequence of bases on a single strand of DNA.

Question 2

What does DNA Code do

Answer 2

Three sequential bases form a codon. Each codon codes for a specific amino acid.

Question 3

Amino acids are

Answer 3

Amino acids are the building blocks for
proteins.

Question 4

Genome (20%)

Answer 4

Genes make up less than 20% of the genome. genome control how genes are turned off/on.

Question 5

Replicating DNA (NEW CELL)

Answer 5

DNA replicates itself every time a new cell is made.

Question 6

What happens during Replication (CHROMOSOMES)

Answer 6

DNA in chromosomes copies itself identically, this is called replication.

Question 7

Three steps of DNA Replication

Answer 7

initiation, elongation, and termination.

Question 8

Initiation (UNTWISTS)

Answer 8

DNA strand/double helix untwist breaking bonds.

Question 9

Elongation (GROUPING)

Answer 9

DNA untwist thus grouping it into two groups by nucleotides.

Question 10

Termination (REPLACEMENT

Answer 10

Is the replacement of the double helix by combing the two groups into one.
