allele
an alternate form of a gene that is located in a specific locus
dominant
an allele that is expressed when two different alleles or two dominant are present
recessive
the allele that is only expressed
chromosome
structure of nucleic and protein found in the nucleus of the most living cells carrying genetic information in the form genes
rna polymerase
dna and attaches to mRNA
mRNA
a version of rna that carries the dna information outside is the nucleus
promoter
the region of dna that singnafies the beginning of the gene
terminator
the region of dna that signifies the end of the gene
ribosome
the site where translation happens
tRNA
a version of Rna that attaches amino acids to the MRNA strand
start codon
a region of mrna that starts the amino acid chain
AUG= Methionine
stop codon
a sequence of 3 mrna that stops the amino acids sequence
translation
the process of mRNA becoming and amino acid chain
transcription
the process of getting a mRNA strand from dna
happens in the nucleus
anticodon
a region of trna that is the complementary codon to the mrna sequence
promoter
start of a gene
terminator
end of a gene
