How are DNA and RNA different? (CHECK ALL THAT APPLY)

• Only DNA can leave the nucleus

• RNA contains Thymine; DNA contains Uracil

• DNA is double stranded, RNA is a single stranded

• DNA contains Thymine, RNA contains Uracil

• Nucleus

• Cytoplasm

• Nucleotide

How many nucleotides code for 1 amino acid?

• 1

The process to go from mRNA to a protein is called ____

• transcription

• rRNA

• replication

• translation

mRNA contains anticodons and tRNA contains codons.

• True

• False

What determines the shape and function of a protein?

How can a mutation in the DNA sequence result in NO change to the protein that is made?

• There are multiple codons that can code for the same amino acid and result in the same protein

• There is always a change in the protein when a mutation occurs

• Only the mRNA is used in protein synthesis so a mutation in the DNA would have no effect on the protein
