Q

what goes with cytosine

A

guanine

17
Q

what links nitrogen bases

A

a weak hydrogen bond

18
Q

why is the hydrogen bond weak

A

so it can break off for replication

19
Q

what is dna

A

double-helix

20
Q

why is it a double helix

A

so it can be easily and accurately replicated

21
Q

what determines proteins and therefore traits

A

order of nitrogen bases

22
Q

describe the order of protein synthesis

A

DNA –> mRNA–> amino acids–> protein–>

23
Q

where does transcription occur

A

in the nucleus

24
Q

what occurs during transcrption

A

DNA rewritten as RNA

25
Q

where does mRNA go

A

it leaves the nucleus to go to the ribosomes

26
Q

where does DNA go

A

its too big to leave the nucleus

27
Q

where does translation occur

A

in the ribosomes

28
Q

what occurs during translation

A

mRNA translated into amino acids

29
Q

what is the result of translation of mRNA into amino acids

A

it creates a polypeptide chain

30
Q

what happens after a polypeptide chain is created

A

tRNA bring the amino acids back to the ribosome

31
Q

what happens after amino acids are brought back to the ribosome

A

anticodon on the tRNA binds with the codon on the mRNA

32
Q

what is a mutation

A

a change in a genetic sequence

33
Q

a single nucleotide change in a DNA sequence can cause a change in the _ sequence

A

amino acid

34
Q

_ mutations change one amino acid

A

substitution

35
Q

the change in one amino acid is known as

A

point mutation

36
Q

mutations can be caused by

A

errors in DNA replication

37
Q

mutations can be caused by (2)

A

environmental factors like UV rays

38
Q

mutations are

A

not good or bad
