QUESTION Who are the American biologists who
made the double helical model of the DNA molecule
in the 1950s won a Nobel Prize. Also, Maurice
Williams Rosalind Franklin worked on this model.
ANSWER James Watson Francis Crick

• Row 1, Col 1

4
QUESTION What are enzymes that separate DNA
strands during replication by breaking hydrogen
bonds between complementary nitrogenous bases.
ANSWER Helicase

• 1,2

5
QUESTION What is the synthesis of an RNA
molecule from information in DNA? (Its the
process by which the genetic instructions in a
specific gene are transcribed or rewritten as
an RNA molecule.)
ANSWER Transcription

• 1,3

6
QUESTION What is the process of making
proteins from the combined efforts of mRNA, tRNA
rRNA called?
ANSWERTranslation.

• 1,4

7
QUESTION What are the repeating subunits that
make up a DNA molecule consist of 3 parts a 5
carbon sugar, a phosphate group a nitrogenous
base.
ANSWER Nucleotide

• 2,1

8
QUESTION What is the 2 separated strands of
the DNA molecule which serve as templates for
making a DNA copy or an RNA molecule.
ANSWER Replication fork

• 2,2

9
QUESTION What is the enzyme that catalyzes the
formation of RNA on a DNA template. Adds free
nucleotides that are complementary to DNA
nucleotides results in an RNA chain?
ANSWER RNA polymerase

• 2,3

10
QUESTION What is the series of steps in
translation where amino acids are added to the
growing protein chain called? (Where codons on
tRNA bringing each new amino acid to the ribosome
as it reads mRNA. Each amino acid is bonded by
a covalent peptide bond.)
ANSWER Elongation.

• 2,4

11
QUESTION What are the types of bonds between
complementary nitrogenous bases that can be
easily broken (zipped unzipped) for DNA
replication, RNA transcription translation into
proteins.
ANSWER Hydrogen bonds.

• 3,1

12
QUESTION What is a change in the nucleotide
sequence in a DNA molecule?
ANSWER Mutation

• 3,2

13
QUESTION What is the 3 nucleotide sequence in
mRNA that encodes an amino acid or signifies a
start or stop signal called? (when 3 letters 1
amino acid)
ANSWER codon

• 3,3

14
QUESTION What is the order of the nitrogenous
bases (A ,T, G,C) (Adenine, Guanine, Thymine,
Cytosine) on a chain of DNA called?
ANSWER The DNA Base Sequence

• 3,4

15
QUESTION What is it called when the
base Adenine always pairs with Thymine Guanine
always pairs with Cytosine (AT, GC)
ANSWER Complementary Base Pairing Rule

• 4,1

16
QUESTION What is the enzyme in DNA replication
that adds individual nucleotides to the unzipped
template side of a DNA molecule? (It results in 2
identical DNA strands.)
ANSWER DNA polymerase

• 4,2

17
QUESTION What is the corresponding group of 3
nitrogenous bases on a tRNA molecule (that,
along with mRNAs codon- will build a protein at
rRNA) ?
ANSWER Anticodon

• 4,3

18
QUESTION What is the set of rules that relates
how a particular sequence of nitrogenous bases
corresponds to a particular amino acid
called? (How the groups of 3 letters (combos of
A,U,G C) on DNA make mRNA code for a specific
amino acid)
ANSWER the genetic code

• 4,4

19
QUESTION Who is the scientist who in 1928
showed the concept of transformation
hereditary material passed from 1 bacterial cell
to another. (The surprising result of his test
was that the heat killed non virulent strains
killed mice.)
ANSWER Frederick Griffith

• 5,1

20
QUESTION What is the concept of DNA
replication in which one of the strands in each
new DNA molecule is conserved or kept intact
from the original DNA molecule that was copied
one side is a new strand of nucleotides?
ANSWER The semi- conservative model of DNA
replication

• 5,2

21
QUESTION What is the specific nucleotide
sequence that tells the enzyme RNA polymerase
where to bind to a DNA sequence and begin making
an RNA polymer?
ANSWER Promoter.

• 5,3

QUESTION What is the complete sequence of
nucleotides in human DNA called? (There are 3.2
billion base pairs decoded.)
ANSWER The Human Genome.

• 5,4
