How are other proteins affected by the ph and tempature
the reasons that temperature and pH affect proteins (including enzymes) is they cause the shape of the protein to change so it can not carry out its job as efficiently.
If the shape of the protein is changed so that the protein no longer functions it is called what
Denatured
Where is deoxyribonucleic acid [dna] stored in every cell
The nucleus
(DNA) is a code made up of 4 bases what are they
A T G C
What does ATGC contain
instructions for the cell to produce all proteins needed by cells.
How are the two strands of the dna structure held together
They are held together complentry base pairing between the bases (A=T G=C)
What does the order of the bases in dna determine
The order of amino acids in a protein
What is the dna the master copy of
Making proteins which the cells need on a day to day basis
Why must dna stay in the nucleus
To reduce the chance of being damaged
Where are proteins made (synthesised)
In ribosomes which are outside of the nucleus in the cytoplasm
