Front

Where does transcription take place?

Back

Transcription takes place in the nucleus of the cell.

Front

What is the complementary DNA strand for AGGTCA during replication?

Back

The complementary DNA strand is TCCAGT.

Front

What is passive transport?

Back

Passive transport is the movement of particles from high concentrations to low concentrations without the need for energy.

Front

What happens during exocytosis?

Back

During exocytosis, a cell releases substances outside of itself using its membrane.

Front

What is replication in the context of DNA?

Back

Replication is the process by which DNA makes an exact copy of itself.

Front

What is the role of the nucleus in a cell?

Back

The nucleus houses the cell's genetic material and is the site of transcription.

Front

Define transcription in biology.

Back

Transcription is the process of copying a segment of DNA into RNA.

Front

What is the difference between active transport and passive transport?

Back

Active transport requires energy to move substances against their concentration gradient, while passive transport does not.

Front

What is facilitated transport?

Back

Facilitated transport is a type of passive transport that uses proteins to help move substances across the cell membrane.

Front

What is the function of ribosomes?

Back

Ribosomes are the sites of protein synthesis in the cell.
