27 Ribose
28 What is the name of the nitrogenous base only found in RNA?
29 Uracil
30 How many codons are needed to specify 3 amino acids?
31 3
32 Amino acids are joined together to make ________________.
33 Proteins
34 USE YOUR CODON CHART! GGA codes for what amino acid?
35 Glycine
36 Use your codon chart! UCG codes for what amino acid?
37 Serine
38 Use your codon chart! GAC codes for what amino acid?
39 Aspartate
40 What are the 3 parts of an RNA nucleotide?
41 Phosphate Ribose Uracil
42 What holds your base pairs together?
43 Hydrogen bonds
44 Name the 2 enzymes that are present in DNA replication.
45 Helicase DNA Polymerase
46 What is a mutation?
47 Change in the DNA sequence
48 Which RNA molecule carries the amino acids to the ribosome?
49 tRNA
50 Explain the translation process.
51 During translation, the mRNA strand that was produced in transcription leaves the nucleus and travels to the ribosome. tRNA carries amino acids that pair up with codons on the mRNA strand. As more amino acids join together they make up a protein which can then go to the part of the body where it is needed. The end product after translation is complete is a protein. Translation happens in the RIBOSOME.
