The program of the cell. | Genetic Code |
The process by which genetic material absorbed from the environment is added to or replaces part of a bacterias DNA. | Transformation |
A British scientist who was studying the way certain types of bacteria cause the disease pneumonia. | Frederick Griffith |
He injected mice with different bacterias to understand transformation. | Explain Griffith Experiment |
The nucleic acid that stores and transmits the genetic information from one generation of an organism to the next. | DNA |
Went deeper into Griffith's experiment to discover what causes transformation. | Oswald Avery |
They did the same experiment as Griffith adding enzymes that would brake down certain molecules until the realized DNA was what causes the transformation in the bacteria. | Explain Avery’s Experiment |
Viruses that eat bacteria. | Bacteriophages |
Two American scientists that discovered that bacteriophages inject their genetic code into victim bacteria. | Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase |
What DNA is made up of. | Nucleotides |
With guanine belong to a group of compounds known as purines. | Adenine |
With Adenine belong to a group of compounds known as purines. | Guanine |
With thymine belongs to a group called pyrimides. | Cytosine |
With cytosine belongs to a group called pyrimides. | Thymine |
The female scientist who viewed DNA through x-rays. | Rosalind Franklin |
Double Helix | Shape of DNA |
The british scientists who created the first model for DNA and discovered it's double helix shape. | James Wastson and Francis Crick |
Chargof's rule- A-T/U, G-C | Base Pairing |
The process DNA preforms before cell division to create two strands of DNA | Replication |
Ribonucleic acid, used to preform transcription and translation. | RNA |
The nitrogen base for RNA that takes the place of thymine. | Uracil |
DNA-RNA | Transcription |
RNA-PROTIEN | Translation |
The RNA in transcription that copies the code from DNA and brings it out of the nucleus. | Messenger RNA |
The process using rRNA, tRNA, and a ribosome to create a polypeptides chain. | Protein Synthesis |
Three nucleotides that make a code word to signify the production of an amino acid. | Codon |
RNA that caries an amino acid based on the anticodon it uses. | Transfer RNA |
mRNA with a ribosome attached to it. | Ribosomal RNA |
The three letter code word that fits onto a codon to signify the production of an amino acid. | Anticodon |
