Q

rna just genrral info
sugar, function

A

5 cardbon sugar ribose

Q

all cells have the same dna except

A

for gametes and red blood cells,

cells that have the same dna can differ in pritine compositiuons to code for specicif features

16
Q

all organisms

A

use the same gene code

17
Q

replication, transcription and translation occure

A

in a 5 (carbon) 3 (phosphate) direction

18
Q

dna polymerase

A

enzyme for synthesising dna molecules diring replication

19
Q

miss matches in base

A

a+g too short
c+t too long

miss matches lead to structural instabilityu causing death in cells or cancer

19
Q

a and t

c and g

A

form 2 H bons

form 3 H bonds

20
Q

eukarotyotic dna

A

in nucleus, asspciated with histone proteins which protect dns

21
Q

prokaryotic dna

A

in cytoplams, hasnno huistones §

22
Q

nucleosome

A

dna ith 150 base pares wrapped aeound core of 8 (4 pairs) of histones

Nuclesomes are called dna linkers have dna flowijg between

(only eukaryotic dna)

23
Q

nucleosomes play role in

A

gene expression and dna coilign

24
first organism couldbnt
eat others so was an autotroph
25
LUCA
protection from uv and enrrgy from . hydrothermal vents (o2 free)
26
elements we need for life
ammonia, co2, ch4, o2, phosphate , nitrogen but they need liwuid solvent to grow (h20)
27
chase and hershey experiment they use a
radioactiveisotope in bacterophage and it injects a bacteria, this shows that the dna is the genetic materila since there was radioactise phosophrus in dna and radioactive sulfur in protine coat. then the radioatcitity in bacteria was only seen in phosophurus which shows the virus injected this part
28
viruses in liquid are
radioactive, but are not in sediment
29
chargaff analysed the dna uding
paper chromatrography but falsified the theory of repeating sequence of the four bases in DNA.
30
section of dna
gene
31
i gene encloses
1 polypeptide protine
32
polynucleitide
strand
33
3 baaes
per aminoacid
34
dna esta o ultimate
and full infomation store for the production of the organism (full detailed manual)
35
rna is involved in the
sharing of small sections of the "dna manual" for the functioning of organisms/cell like a photocopyer
36
rna is found
all around cell in cytoplams but produced in nucleus,, dna is so in nucleus
