Answer 12

deoxyribose, thymine, and a phosphate group

Question 13

levels of organization within a cell of multicellular organisms

Answer 13

cell, nucleus, chromosome, gene

Question 14

The coded information of a DNA molecule is determined by the

Answer 14

sequence of amino acids

Question 15

all cells from a fertilized egg have

Answer 15

identical DNA

Question 16

sudden change in the DNA of a chromosome can usually be passed on to future generations of the change occurs in a

Answer 16

Sex cell

Question 17

New in heritable characteristics would be at least likely to result from

Answer 17

mutations which occur in muscle cells and skin cells

Question 18

what is the function of messenger RNA molecules in the synthesis of proteins

Answer 18

they carry information that determines the sequence of amino acids

Question 19

functions of DNA

Answer 19

Controls functions of cell, contains instructions to make proteins

Question 20

nucleotides

Answer 20

DNA made of repeating subunits

Question 21

RNA messenger

Answer 21

A single strand, ribose sugar, doesn’t contain base thymine, contains base uracil, follows base pair rule (a-u)

Question 22

transcription

Answer 22

occurs in the nucleus of the cell

Question 23

how transcription works

Answer 23

A DNA strand separates and serves as a template for RNA assembly, free M RNA nucleotides match up to exposed nucleotides on DNA strand, M RNA strands leaves DNA strand when “stop codon” is reached. The M RNA strand carries code for production of one polypeptide

Question 24

M RNA carries instructions from

Answer 24

nucleus to ribosomes

Question 25

translation

Answer 25

occurs in cytoplasm of the cell, at the ribosome. RNA is turned into proteins (happens in ribosomes)
