  • AUG is called a _______ codon because it signals the ribosome to begin translation
    START
  • the DNA strand that is the same as mRNA but "T" is replaced with "U"
    coding strand
  • The RNA that forms into ribosomes (protein factory).
    ribosomal RNA (rRNA)
  • triplet(3) nucleotides in mRNA which codes for a specific amino acid
    codon
  • It has an anticodon arm.
    transfer RNA (tRNA)
  • Give one example of a STOP codon
    UAG , UGA, UAA
  • the DNA strand that is complementary with mRNA
    template strand
  • The RNA that carries the genetic instructions (code) from DNA.
    messenger RNA (mRNA)
  • What is the complementary messenger RNA if DNA template is 3' AGGT 5' ?
    5' UCCA 3'
  • the building blocks of protein
    amino acids
  • What is the complementary DNA strand of 3' AGGT 5' ?
    5' TCCA 3'
  • What do you call when there is CHANGE in DNA sequence?
    Mutation
  • The RNA that delivers the amino acids during protein synthesis.
    transfer RNA (tRNA)
  • the nitrogenous base that is ONLY found in RNA
    Uracil
  • The process of copying a DNA sequence into a messenger RNA.
    transcription
  • this is where translation takes place in the cell
    cytoplasm
  • The messenger RNA is decoded into an amino acid sequence.
    Translation
