Answer
  • Ribosomes
  • DNA
  • Chromosomes

Question 4

Question
What are chromosomes?
Answer
  • Compact units in which double helices are packaged into
  • Compact units in which DNA are packaged into

Question 6

Question
What is a trait?
Answer
  • A type of cell that carries oxygen from the brain to the lungs
  • A part of the double helix
  • A notable quality or feature of a person

Question 7

Question
Most traits are complex as opposed to single.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 8

Question
How does a molecule hold information?
Answer
  • The double helix’s ladder’s rungs are built with the A, C, T, and G DNA alphabet.
  • It sends it to the ribosomes when it can't hold it anymore.
  • It stores it in the mRNA

Question 9

Question
How are genes related to proteins?
Answer
  • Each gene in the DNA encodes information about how to make a specific protein.
  • Each ribosomes encodes information about how to make a specific protein.
  • Each nucleotide encodes information about how to make a specific protein.

Question 10

Question
What is mRNA
Answer
  • They are portable copies of genes. The cell's "flash drive".
  • 3-D “machines, tools, and structures,” printed by ribosomes. The working “apps” of the cell. What is being printed.
  • The cell's hard drive
  • The molecular symbols of the genetic code

Question 11

Question
What do ribosomes do?
Answer
  • Print off proteins
  • Store all the cell's nucleotides
  • Create mRNA

Question 25

Question
What is the correct order of the printing process in cells?
Answer
  • -Make an mRNA copy of the gene -Unzip the double helix at the required gene -Send the mRNA copies to the ribosomes -Ribosomes read the mRNA code, print the protein, tRNA brings the amino acids to the ribosomes
  • -Unzip the double helix at the required gene -Make an mRNA copy of the gene -Send the mRNA copies to the ribosomes -Ribosomes read the mRNA code, print the protein, tRNA brings the amino acids to the ribosomes
  • -Make an mRNA copy of the gene -Unzip the double helix at the required gene -Send the mRNA copies to the ribosomes -Ribosomes read the mRNA code, print the protein, tRNA brings the amino acids to the ribosomes -Make an mRNA copy of the gene
  • -Make an mRNA copy of the gene -Send the mRNA copies to the ribosomes -Unzip the double helix at the required gene -Ribosomes read the mRNA code, print the protein, tRNA brings the amino acids to the ribosomes

Question 26

Question
What is the correct order of the process of DNA replication?
Answer
  • -Proofread the new copies for errors in the nucleotides -Unzip the double helix -Add new nucleotides to each side, creating two new double-helices, each identical to the originals.
  • -Add new nucleotides to each side, creating two new double-helices, each identical to the originals. -Proofread the new copies for errors in the nucleotides -Unzip the double helix
