DNA and RNA
26
Cytosine is in
DNA and RNA
27
Guanine is in
DNA and RNA
28
Thymine is found in
DNA
29
Uracil is found in
RNA
30
You can tell if it’s DNA or RNA because
RNA is a single strand, DNA is 2
31
What are the two names of DNA strands?
Sense strand and non-sense strand
32
Which strand is copied?
Sense Strand
33
Transcription is
Replication of RNA
34
What is the end product of translation?
Protein
35
mRNA finds a ribosome then
The codon on the mRNA looks for a anticodon from the tRNA.
36
Codon from mRNA finds anticodon from tRNA then what
Ribosome begins making protein
37
Where does the tRNA get it’s amino acids?
Cytoplasm
38
PolyPeptide bond
Amino acids strung together (A protein)
39
Mutation
Any mistake or change in the DNA sequence
40
Chromosomal Mutations
Change in the chromosomes
41
The larger the chromsome
The more information it carries
42
Chromosomal mutations dont only affect 1 chromsome
It affects many
43
Nondisjunction
Failure of chromosomes to separate properly
44
Trisomy
Extra Chromosome
45
Trisomy 21
Down Syndrome
46
Triploidy
1 complete extra set
47
How many chromosomes does a triploid have?
69
48
Monosomy
Lacking a single Chromosome
49
What happens to a triploidy
Everything bad that can happen will happen
