Translation is crucial to the process of making proteins. Which statement best describes what takes place during translation?

• A copy of chromosomal DNA is created 

• Information in mRNA is converted into a sequence of amino acids in a protein 

• A RNA copy of a DNA strand is made.
  

• Instructions from DNA in the nucleus are brought to the cytoplasm 

Which process is shown?

• diffusion

• repiration

• recombination

• translation

Which enzyme is responsible for unzipping the DNA strands?

• helicase

• DNA polymerase

• topoisomerase

• ligase

How do the three types of RNA work together?

• mRNA carries message, tRNA carries amino acids, and rRNA makes ribosome

• mRNA makes ribosomes, tRNA carries amino acids, and rRNA relays information

• mRNA carries amino acids, tRNA transfer message, and rRNA makes ribosome

• mRNA is made, tRNA holds the DNA in place, and rRNA removes the deoxyribose

What is the sequence of nucleotides on mRNA read in triplets called?

• anticodon

• codon

• triplet box

• wobble

Identify which molecules bind to the promoter region

• Ligase

• Topoisomerase

• DNA polymerase

• RNA polymerase

Which RNA bases would pair with TACGAA in transcription? 

• AUGCUU

• ATGCTT

• GCATCC

• GCAUCC
