Replication Transcription Translation

The process of creating mRNA from DNA strand is called

• replication

• transcription

• translation

The process of creating a protein from mRNA is called

• replication

• transcription

• translation

The process of creating a new DNA double helix from an older DNA molecule is called

• replication

• transcription

• translation

DNA replication results in two DNA molecules,

• Each with two new strands

• Each with one original strand and one new strand

• Each with two original strands

• One with two new strands and the other with two original strands

Determine the correct order of the amino acid sequence to be produced from the DNA template:

3' CCG TCT AAG GTG ACC CTT 5'

• Valine - Threonine - Lysine - Serine - Proline - Glutamic Acid

• Glycine - Valine - Lysine - Serine - Proline - Alanine

• Proline - Serine - Lysine - Threonine - Valine - Stop

• Glycine - Arginine - Phenylalanine - Histidine - Tryptophan - Glutamic Acid

Explain how DNA replication differs from transcription.

• DNA replication creates a complete copy of the DNA; transcription creates mRNA.

• DNA replication occurs in the cytoplasm; transcription occurs in the nucleus.

• DNA replication involves ribosomes; transcription does not.

• DNA replication synthesizes proteins; transcription synthesizes lipids.
