16
Q

Excision

A

Takes out damage basepair and replaces it with a functional one

17
Q

Central Dogma

A

Flow of genetic info from dna to dnd, rna to protien

18
Q

Which base pair is the stronges
A-T
G-C

A

G-C because it has 3 hydrogen bonds

19
Q

What is added to the 3’ end of an mRna transcriptuon during Rna processing

A

A Poly A tail

20
Q

Transcrip the Dna sequence 5’-GCTATA

A

3”-CGAUAU-5’

21
Q

What protien help Rna polymarase bind to the promoter for transcription

A

Transcription factors

22
Q

What enzyme reloads a tRNA molecule with an amino acid?

A

Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase

23
Q

What does primase add

A

Short strands of RNA to the lagging strand

24
Q

Where do stop codons enter

A

They Enter the A site

25
Q

What molecule transfers info from the nucleus to the cytoplasm in the eukaryotic cell

A

MRNA

26
Q

Silent mutation

A

Same amino sequence just diff codon
