Biology Translation and Transcription RNA summative

RNA Summative

How does the ribosome know where to start translation?

The start code which is AUG- Methionine

How does the cell know where to start transcription?*

Promoter which is TATA

Nonsense mutation

When one of the letters gets switched and makes it a stop code.

The process of making a protein from RNA

translation

The process of making RNA from DNA*

transcription

Silent mutation

when the transcription gets changed by the letter and leads to the same translation

The human genome consists of about 20,000*

protein coding genes

what happens in a frame shift mutation

there is an addition or deletion of one of the letters in transcription

Genes contain the information to create what

proteins

what enzyme is responsible for transcription

RNA polymerase

the process of making duplicate copies of DNA

Dna replication

Compare and contrast DNA

- Dna has two strands rna has one

-Dna has one type and its permanent but rna is temporary

- three types of rna

-rna can leave the nucleus

what determines the proteins functions

its structure.

what is the stop code

UAG-

 ____________ is made of three nitrogen bases and codes for one amino acid

codon

The human genome contains 3,000,000,000 __________________*

base pairs

Mis sense mutation

when one of the letters change which ends up changing the translation

______________ are removed by the spliceasome

Introns

How does the ribosome know where to end translation

stop code

_______________ are put together to make final mRNA*

exons

What is the difference between the coding and template strand of DNA.

the template strand acts as a blueprint for the coding strand that is non transcribed.

______________ carries amino acids to the ribosome.

trna

______________ carries instructions to make a protein out of the nucleus.
