|
list characteristics of RNA how is it different from DNA
|
RNA is a long chain of nucleotides
3 differences: the sugar in RNA is ribose instead of deoxyribose, RNA is single-stranded, and RNA contains uracil in place of thymine |
|
|
describe protein synthesis
|
job of most RNA molecules is protein synthesis. protein is made by transcription and translation
|
|
|
example of protein synthesis
|
ATG TAA CGC
UAC AUU GCG |
|
|
when does DNA replication occur
|
before cell division
|
|
|
what are codons and anticodons? where do you find each?
|
codons are 3 consecutive nucleotides anticodons are complementary to a codon: example codon = UUC
anticodon = AAG found in RNA |
|
|
what do genes code for
|
different traits
|
|
|
what are three types of RNA
|
messenger RNA, ribosomal RNA and transfer RNA
|
