A

1) double-stranded helix
2) composed of repeating units of nucleotides
3) each strand consists of a (sugar-phosphate backbone) attached with (nitrogenous bases) (A, T, C and G);
4) two strands are joined together with complementary base pairs formed between

A-T
and
C-G.

25
is the key enzyme for DNA replication
DNA polymerase
26
it has a high proof-reading capability, to make sure daughter DNAs are highly accurate copy of parental DNA
DNA polymerase
27
the synthesis of a complementary strand of RNA from a DNA template.
Transcription
28
called messenger RNA, or mRNA
RNA
29
carries the coded information for making a protein
mRNA
30
is the key enzyme
RNA polymerase
31
RNA polymerase it uses ……… RNA polymerase recognizes and binds to a specific site of DNA called ( "promoter" )
(a) it uses a portion of DNA as a template | (b) it recognizes and binds to a specific site of DNA called "promoter" to start transcription.
32
protein synthesis (genetic information being translated into a protein molecule).
Translation
33
During translation …
a ribosome moves along an mRNA molecule
34
molecules are the actual translators
tRNA
35
they read the genetic code in mRNA and move in a specific amino acid molecule.
tRNA

Phenotypic Variation ممكن مقالي اذكر خواص الاختلاف المظهري
1) non genetic 2) non hereditable 3) not transmitted from one generation to the other and 4)is controlled by environmental conditions.
38
Genotypic Variation
1) genetic ``` 2) transmitted from one generation to another and 3) is not controlled by environmental conditions (permanent). ```
39
Types of Microbial Variation and example for each other ?
- Phenotypic Variation 1) Serratia marscenes 2) Salmonella genotype - Genotypic Variation 1) Transfer of DNA 2) Mutation

Serratia marscenes produce pigment at … but no pigment at

What do Genetic recombination?
a. Conjugation b. Transduction c. Transformation
46
What do Mutations ? Finish page 6❤️
a. Substitution b. Insertion c. Deletion زي وضع حقين الواسطة
47
exchange of genes between two chromosomes
Genetic recombination
48
transfer of DNA from one chromosomal location to another, or from one cell (donor cell) to another cell (recipient cell)
Gene transfer
49
transfer of naked DNA molecule
Transformation
50
gene transfer through the sex pili
Conjugation
51
virus or phage-mediated gene transfer الفيروس او نقل الجينات بواسطة الملتهمة Finish page 7❤️
Transduction
52
uptake of free DNA from the environment when another bacterial cell (donor) dies and undergoes lysis (.......) Example ………
Transformation e.g. Haemophilus, Streptococcus and Neisseria
53
transfer of host genes from one host to another by a virus
Transduction
54
transfer of genes from one prokaryotic cell to another by mechanism involving cell-to-cell contact and a plasmid. Finish page 8
Conjugation
55
-Each triplet base in the mRNA is called …
codon
56
…Since there are 4 possible bases in the mRNA ‏there are (……) possible codons
(ACGU) 4^3 Or 64
57
64-3 = 61 Sixty one of these codons are called
sense- codons (code for specific amino acids).
58
64-61 =3 Three of the codons are nonsense codons (UAA, UGA, UAG) يعني i.e.: they have no complementary anticodons.
nonsense codons (UAA, UGA, UAG)
59
The nonsense codons terminate the protein synthesis acting as ……

The specific sequence of codons is called …… and It is universal in all living beings. Finish page 10 ❤️
