QuestionAnswer
cell growth & development phase before divisionInterphase
growth, development and divisionCell Life Cycle
cell grows & develops by synthesizing (making) the proteins that give organisms their traits and characteristics from DNA & RNAProtein Synthesis
newly replicated DNA is checked for errors before the cell dividesCheckpoint
instructional genetic code for making the proteins that give living things their traits & characteristics - Double Helix shape inside nucleus in Eukaryotic cells - Circular shape in Prokaryotic cellsDNA
single stranded; uses DNA’s instructions to make proteinsRNA
monomer building blockNucleotide
Deoxyribose Sugar in DNA or Ribose in RNA Phosphate (P) Nitrogen Base - Cytosine - Guanine - Adenine - Thymine in DNA or Uracil in RNANucleotide
Hydrogen Bonds connect the nitrogen bases Cytosine to Guanine (“CG”) and Adenine to Thymine (“AT”) in DNA to form double helix or Adenine to Uracil (“AU”) in RNABase Pairing
each strand of double helix DNASugar Phosphate Backbones
Protein Macromolecules monomer building blockAmino Acids
Traits are expressed by proteins Enzyme proteins catalyze (speed up) chemical rxns Structure (hair, nails, muscles) Transport substances - Ex: Hemoglobin allows red blood cells to transport oxygen Hormone Chemical Messengers - Some hormones are also lipidsProtein Functions
Proteins have unique shapes and functions True or FalseTrue
DNA is replicated, so when the cell divides each new cell doesn’t end up with only half the required amount of DNADNA Replication
Proteins have a unique number and sequence of different amino acid building blocksTrue
