BIO B LL1

What has the "recipe" or code for protein?

DNA

tRNA

bring amino acids to the ribosome

Where does protein synthesis occur?

cell

protein

chain of amino acids

3 difference of RNA

its single stranded, it has ribose instead of deoxyribose, it has uracil not thymine

cytosol

liquid in the cell; where ribosomes are located

What takes the message or code out of the nucleus?

mRNA

DNA

molecule with instructions for making protein; kept inside nucleus

amino acids

pieces that make up a protein

ribosome

place where proteins are made

Where protein is made?

ribosomes

Who are the "workers" that bring ingredients or amino acids?

tRNA

mRNA

takes message from DNA out to cytosol

primary structure

the order of the amino acids that determines all other levels of protein structure

transcription

when DNA is copied into RNA; occurs in the nucleus

translation

when mRNA is changed into protein; occurs in the cytosol

nucleus

where DNA is kept

codon

3 bases in an mRNA strand that code for a specific amino acid

anticodon

3 bases on tRNA that are complementary to the codon

Where does the "chief" or DNA stay?

Nucleus

rRNA

RNA inside the ribosome that "glues" amino acids together to make protein

What is protein made of?

amino acids
