Transcription & Translation
DNA -double-stranded nucleic acid that makes up genes and chromosomes
RNA-is a single-stranded long chain of nucleotides RNA is related to DNA cause RNA is a part of DNA it just has disconnected
tRNA-type of RNA that brings amino acids to ribosomes where they are joined together to form proteins tRNA is related o RNA cause it's a type of RNA
Double stranded-Is when there are two chains in one area
Is related to DNA cause DNA is double stranded
Single-stranded-is when there is only one chain It's related to RNA cause it's single stranded
Genes-a unit of heredity which is transferred from a parent to offspring and is held to determine some characteristic of the offspring Genes are connected to DNA because DNA is what makes up genes
Mutation- is an alteration in the nucleotide sequence of the genome of an organism, virus, or extrachromosomal DNA Mutation is something that occurs in genes that changes them
Hydrogen bonds-a weak bond between two molecules resulting from an electrostatic attraction between a proton in one molecule and an electronegative atom in the other
They are related to DNA cause that's what hold together DNA
Amino acid-tRNA is related to amino acid cause it takes the amino acid to ribosomes
Ribosomes-Are connected to Amino Acids cause they join togther to make proteins
Ribose- constituent of nucleosides and several vitamins and enzymes
Rna uses Ribose
Nucleotides-Are connected to DNA cause that's what it is a long chain of them
Deoxyribose-Is related to nucleotides because they re one of the 5 things that make them up
Codon-group of three nitrogen bases in nucleic acids that makes up a code Having multiple codons for one amino acids helps to protect against mutations
anticodon-a sequence of three nucleotides forming a unit of genetic code in a transfer RNA molecule, corresponding to a complementary codon in messenger RNA
transcription-process in which genetic instructions in DNA are copied to form a complementary strand of mRNA
Translation-process in which genetic instructions in mRNA are ‘‘read” to synthesize a protein
