Molecular Bio Flashcards
1
Q
Organisms are very diverse but surprisingly molecular reactions/processes, in general have remained very consistent in all of life
A
All organisms (bacteria to human) have DNA as the genome
2
Q
What is very similar for all organisms?
A
DNA replication, transcription, and translation
3
Q
Gene expression control has a lot of similarities between organisms
A
Gene expression is the process by which the instructions in our DNA are converted into a functional product, such as a protein
4
Q
Molecular processes that are unchanged over years are considered
A
Highly conserved ( to protect)
