Science-Genes, DNA, Proteins Flashcards
I am a double helix
DNA
I am single stranded
RNA
I am the difference between RNA and DNA
Thymine (T- DNA) Uracil (U- RNA)
I am the type of RNA that brings the Amino Acids to the ribosome and add them to the growing protein
Transfer RNA
I am the order of nitrogen bases along a gene
Genetic code
I am the part of DNA that codes for a protein
Gene
I am the type of RNA that is made in the nucleus, and I copy the coded message from DNA and carry it to the ribosome in the cytoplasm
Messenger RNA
I am the base that pairs with Guanine (G)
Cytosine
I am the base that pairs with Adenine (A) in DNA
Thymine (T)
I am the base that pairs with Adenine (A) in RNA
Uracil (U)
I am the ‘backbone’ of the DNA molecule
Phosphate and deoxyribose
I am the process by which DNA is copied
DNA replication
I am the result of DNA replication
Copy
I am the number of strands in the copies DNA molecule
One
I am the complementary DNA strand to ACGGGA
