RNA Transcription and Translation

�Which type of code is read to create a sequence of amino acids? �a- t. RNA �b-m. RNA �c-DNA �d-r. RNA

�B-m. RNA

�Which type of RNA is “motionless? ” Meaning it does not move around the cell? �a- m. RNA �b- t. RNA �c- r. RNA

�c- r. RNA

�Which type of RNA carries an anti-codon AND a single amino acid on it? �a-m. RNA �b-t. RNA �c-r. RNA

�b-t. RNA

Which of the following best describes the process of translation? �a- Making an identical copy of a DNA sequence �b-Changing the genetic code from a DNA sequence to an m. RNA sequence �c- Changing an m. RNA sequence to a chain of amino acids �d- Linking amino acids together to make a protein

�c- Changing an m. RNA sequence to a sequence of amino acids

�a- Ribosome

Use your decoder ring to translate the following m. RNA sequence AUG CCG UAG

�Methionine (start), Proline, STOP

Use the following DNA sequence to get a sequence of amino acids: TCG ATT TAT

�Serine, STOP, Isoleucine �You must TRANSCRIBE to m. RNA first, then TRANSLATE into amino acids.

�A t. RNA molecule is carrying the amino acid TRYPTOPHAN. What ANTICODON does the t. RNA moelecule have?

�ACC

�Describe the relationship between a gene and a protein.

�A gene is a segment of DNA that can be transcribed into m. RNA to be translated into a single protein.
