WEEK 5

Question 1

Three Types of RNA:
encodes amino acid sequences of a polypeptide.

Answer 1

MESSENGER RNA (mRNA)

Question 2

Three Types of RNA:
it is responsible for carrying the amino acids to ribosomes while translation.

Answer 2

TRANSFER RNA (tRNA)

Question 3

Three Types of RNA:

produces ribosomes with the ribosomal
proteins that organelles responsible for translation of the mRNA.

Answer 3

RIBOSOMAL RNA (rRNA)

Question 4

The process where mRNA is translated into a protein sequence at the ribosome. It is also the second step in protein synthesis.

Answer 4

TRANSLATION

Question 4

are composed of amino acids linked by peptide bonds.
The sequence of amino acids determines the protein’s structure and function. It has four levels of structure: primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary.

Answer 4

PROTEINS

Question 5

replicates and stores genetic information.
It is a blueprint for all genetic information contained within an organism.

Answer 5

DNA(DEOXYRIBUNOCLEIC ACID)

Question 6

converts the genetic information contained within DNA to a format used to build proteins, and then moves it to ribosomal protein factories.

Answer 6

RNA(RIBONUCLEIC ACID)

Question 7

The process where a segment of DNA is copied into mRNA. It is also the first step in protein synthesis.

Answer 7

TRANSCRIPTION
