Dna

Front 1

gene

Back 1

segment of DNA that is located in a chromosome and that codes for a specific hereditary trait

Front 2

DNA

Back 2

decoy ribonucleic acid , the material that contains the information that determines inherited characteristics

Front 3

nucleotide

Back 3

in a nucleic acid chin, a subnit that consists of a sugar, a phosphate, and nitrogenous base

Front 4

purine

Back 4

a nitrogenous base that has a double ring structure adenine or guanine

Front 5

pyrimidine

Back 5

a nitrogenous base that had a single thing structure in DMA either thymine or cytostine

Front 6

DNA replication

Back 6

the process of making a copy of dna

Front 7

DNA helicase

Back 7

ASB enzyme that unwind the DNS double helix during DNA replication

Front 8

DNA polymerase

Back 8

an enzyme that catalyzes the formation of the DNA molecule

Front 9

RNA

Back 9

ribonucleic acid a natural polymer that is present in all living cells and that plays a role in protein synthesis

Front 10

gene expression

Back 10

the manifestation of the genetic material of an organism in the form of the specific traits

Front 11

gene expression

Back 11

the manifestation of the genetic material of an organism in the form of specific traits

Front 12

transcription

Back 12

first step of gene expression, certain segments of DNA is copied into RNA by the enzyme polymerase.

Front 13

translation

Back 13

final step on the way from DNA to protein. synthesis of protein is directed NY a mRNA template. the info contained in the nucleotide sequence of the mRNA is read as a three letter word (triplets) called condon.

Front 14

condon

Back 14

trinucleotide sequence of dna/rna that corresponds to a specific amino acid. the genetic code describes relationships between DNA bases ( a+t, c+ g) in a gene and the corresponding protein sequence that it encodes

Front 15

mutation

Back 15

change in DNA, when something goes wrong in the DNA process
