Multiple Choice

Both are made of nucleotides
DNA is double stranded and RNA is single stranded
DNA and RNA contain a different type of sugar
They both consist of the same four bases
All of these choices are true

Multiple Choice
Which type of RNA acts as a messenger to take the genetic code to the Ribosomes?
mRNA
rRNA
tRNA
zRNA

Multiple Choice
Why does a cell need to utilize transcription?
Because DNA can not leave the nucleus
To maintain a balance of electrolytes
Because the cytoplasm needs to move in and out of the the nucleus
Because amino acids need to get moved to the ribosomes

What enzyme is essential for transcription?
DNA polymerase
RNA polymerase
DNA hydrolase
RNA hydrolase

True
False

Multiple Choice
Which is NOT TRUE about proteins?
They are made up of long chains of amino acids
They are the main component of muscle tissue
Enzymes are a type of protein
They are just long straight strands of polypeptides

Multiple Choice
A codon is a section of 3 bases that "codes" for one protein.
True
False

25
Multiple Choice
What would be the correct amino acid sequence translated from the mRNA strand on the previous slide?
trytophan - leucine - isoleucine - serine - methionine
methionine - alanine - serine - leucine
valine - arginine - serine - leucine - stop
none of these are correct
