Unit 7 test Flashcards
1
Q
Initiation
A
RNA polymerase links to a promoter… region that recognizes start of gene (TATA box)
2
Q
Elongation
A
RNA nucleotides are linked together flailing off as it synthesized
3
Q
Termination
A
RNA reaches a sequence of bases that signals the end of the gene
4
Q
mRNA
A
carries DNA’s code to cytoplasm
5
Q
tRNA
A
delivers amino acids to ribosome
6
Q
rRNA
A
makes up ribosomes, site where proteins are made
7
Q
Lysogenic cycle
A
Viral replication. Virus nucleic acid is replicating but not actively destroying cell.
8
Q
Lytic cycle
A
Host cell actively producing proteins necessary for reproduction of new viral parts (proteins etc.). Infectious stage.
