PROTEIN
L
M
N
Macromolecule made up of amino
acids; produced on ribosome during
protein synthesis
Triplet code found on the mRNA;
translated into amino acids for
protein synthesis
Triplet code found on tRNA; used to
carry appropriate amino acid to the
mRNA on the ribosome
Process of cell division; producing
two identical daughter cells from
one parent cell
Preliminary stage to Mitosis; where
the DNA doubles and prepares to
divide
First stage of Mitosis; the nuclear
membrane disappear, &
chromosomes appear
Second phase of mitosis;
chromosomes line up across the
equator, anchored by spindle fibers
Third phase of mitosis;
chromosomes are pulled apart to
opposite poles of the cell
Fourth phase of mitosis; nuclear
membrane reappears and cell
membrane pinches in
After mitosis two new daughter cells
are produced; contain identical DNA
Process of transcribing DNA into
RNA in order to produce or make
proteins
A mistake in the DNA code
A segment of DNA that codes for a
specific trait; DNA instructions to
make one protein
Coiled DNA found in nucleus;
structure containing DNA and
proteins
20. Proteins are formed from monomers
(subunits) called —
A amino acids _
B fatty acids
C nucleic acids
D nucleotides
15. This chart compares the base sequences
of homologous segments of DNA
from three primates. Based on this
information, how many differences in
the resulting amino acid sequences
would you expect to find between
humans and chimpanzees?
A2_
B3
C4
D6
21. Which of these will complete the
mRNA strand matched to DNA?
A CAG
B AUG
C GUC _
D UAC
16. Amino acids link together by peptide
bonds to form proteins. In which
cellular organelle would this process
occur?
F Mitochondrion
G Ribosome _
H Lysosome
J Golgi body
22. The jimsonweed Datura stramonium,
normally has 12 chromosomes in the
body cells. How many chromosomes
will an egg cell of the weed have?
A 6 chromosomes _
B 12 chromosomes
C 18 chromosomes
D 24 chromosomes
17. Which of these is most responsible for
carrying coded information from the
nucleus?
A The cell membrane
B The ribosomes
C mRNA _
D ATP
23. The parts of DNA that provide the code
for proteins are the —
F sugars
G phosphates
H hydrogen bonds
J nitrogenous bases
18. The process of DNA replication is
necessary before a cell —
F makes a protein
G codes for RNA molecules
H divides into two cells _
J modifies lysosome enzymes
19. The processes of meiosis and
fertilization help ensure the survival of
the species by providing each
generation with the same number of —
A body cells
B chromosomes _
C offspring
D gametes
24. The picture shows an x-ray diffraction
of DNA. The x-ray diffraction of DNA
led to the idea that DNA —
F is a double helix _
G contains paired bases
H can copy itself
J is a very long molecule
