1. RNA, Transcription, Translation

2. How is RNA different from DNA
RNA= Ribonucleic acid vs deoxyribonucleic acid
sugars= ribose vs deoxyribose

3. How is RNA different from DNA
RNA= single stranded vs double stranded helix
4 bases AUGC vs ATGC

4. Forms of RNA messenger RNA (mRNA)
carries instructions for protein synthesis from nucleus cytoplasm

5. Forms of RNA Ribosomal RNA (rRNA)
along with proteins make up ribosomes
the site of protein synthesis

6. Forms of RNA Transfer RNA (tRNA) reads code in mRNA
transfers new amino acids onto growing polypeptide chain according to instructions in mRNA

7. Transcription (DNA RNA)
Process by which DNA is copied into mRNA
Carried out by RNA polymerase vs. DNA polymerase
occurs in the nucleus

12. Genetic code language of instruction is DNA/RNA
4 letters code ( either ATGC or AUGC)
Codes for 20 different amino acids
order of code specifies identify and order of a.a.
Each gene codes for a different protiens

13. Codons
a group of 3 nucleotides in mRNA that codes for a specific a.a.

14. Translation (mRNA protein)
nucleotides in mRNA are decoded into a polypeptide
occurs in cytoplasm

15. Translation (mRNA protein)

16. Translation (mRNA protein)

17. Translation (mRNA protein)

19. The importance of protein
key to almost everything living cells do
how cells maintain shape, move, communicate
responsible for all our traits
