transcription and translation

Question 1

transcription step 1- initiation

Answer 1

RNA polymerase binds to promoter and DNA unwinds at the begining of a gene

Question 2

transcription step 2- elongation

Answer 2

RNA polymerase attaches mRNA to complimentary sequence of DNA in the 5’ to 3’ direction

Question 3

transcription step 3- termination

Answer 3

terminator sequence stop transcription process resulting in RNA

Question 4

translation

Answer 4

going from a nucleic acid to an amino acid

Question 5

exons

Answer 5

part of mRNA that code for a protein

Question 6

introns

Answer 6

parts of mRNA that do not code for a protein and need to be cut out before translation

Question 7

translation step 1- initiation

Answer 7

small and large ribsomal units bind to mRNA at the start condon (AUG)

Question 8

translation step 2- elongation

Answer 8

tRNA enters large ribosomal unit at the A site and the anticodons of the tRNA bind w the codons of the mRNA

Question 9

translation step 3- elongation

Answer 9

tRNA shifts to the p site of the large ribosomal unit and the amino acids produced bind together

Question 10

translation step 4- elongation

Answer 10

tRNA shifts to the E site of the large ribosomal unit and exits the unit

Question 11

translation step 5- termination

Answer 11

a stop codon is reached in the mRNA, releasing the ribosamal units and polypeptide chain

Question 12

transcription coding- RNA

Answer 12

C-ar stays in the G-arage
T-ree still has A-pples, but
A-pples are U-nder tree
