Vocal Quiz Chapter 10 Flashcards
Is the process of decoding the M RNA into polypeptide chain
Translation
Along with protein, makes up the ribosomes
Is the blueprint of the master plan, has a sugar ribose, contains the base uracil, and molecule is single-stranded
RNA
Copies DNAs code in carries the genetic information to the ribosomes
mRNA
Transfer amino acids to the ribosomes where proteins are synthesized
tRNA
Each sequence of three bases is called a
Codon
( G C T)
Codon
DNA is found inside the nucleus. Proteins are synthesized by the ribosomes outside the nucleus. DNAs code must be copied and taken to the ribosomes. At the ribosomes this code must be read so amino acids can be assembled to make polypeptides
Protein synthesis
Have a double ring of carbon and nitrogen atoms such as adenine and guanine
Purine
Have a single ring of carbon and nitrogen atoms such as cytosine and thymine
Pyrimidines
Sugar of the pentose class that occurs wildly in nature as a constitute of nucleosides and several vitamins and enzymes
Ribose
The five-carbon sugar in a DNA nucleotide
Deoxyribose
The process of copying the sequence of one strand of DNA, The template strand
Transcription
