Front

What process is occurring when mRNA is synthesized from a DNA template?

Back

Transcription

Front

What is the process called when proteins are synthesized from mRNA?

Back

Translation

Front

What happens to enzymes when they are heated to a high temperature?

Back

The shapes of the enzyme are altered (denatured).

Front

What is the function of ribosomes in a cell?

Back

Ribosomes are responsible for protein synthesis.

Front

What is the role of the stroma in photosynthesis?

Back

The stroma is the site of the Light Independent Reactions (Calvin Cycle).

Front

What is denaturation in the context of enzymes?

Back

Denaturation is the alteration of an enzyme's shape, affecting its function.

Front

What is the difference between dehydration synthesis and hydrolysis?

Back

Dehydration synthesis builds larger molecules by removing water, while hydrolysis breaks down molecules by adding water.
