Transcription and Translation Lesson

In what process is mRNA synthesized?

• Transcription

• DNA Replication

• Translation

• Mitosis

Which molecule carries the anticodon?

• mRNA

• rRNA

• DNA

• tRNA

How do know when to STOP translating a strand of mRNA?

• you don't

• stop at the end of the strand

• when Metz tells you to

• the codon will read STOP on the codon chart

What process is going on in this photo?

• DNA Replication

• Transcription

• Translation

• Mitosis

If DNA undergoes transcription to create an mRNA strand, match the codons of mRNA (bottom row) to the triplets of DNA (top row)

• UAA

• TAG

• AUC

• GCA

• GCU

• ATT

• CAG

• ATG

• UAC

• GTC

A sequence of a DNA template strand is shown.
