DNA and Polypeptide Synthesis Quiz


Preview:


What is the process where: mRNA is read within the ribosome, where associated anticodons are paired up, leaving their amino acid, creating a polypeptide chain.

A. Translation

B. Transcription

C. Translocation


How are cells differentiated?

A. the way that the DNA molecules are organised and packaged

B. how big they are

C. what nitrogenous bases they have


Tertiary structure

A. the amino acid sequence

B. formation of alpha helices and beta sheets

C. secondary folding caused by the interaction between the polypeptide and its immediate environment, results in the formation of overall 3D structure

D. the relationship between individual subunits


what is the process where: DNA is converted int mRNA code, then is carried to the cytoplasm and then to ribosomes

A. Transcription

B. Translation

C. mRNA replication


What is not a role of mRNA?

A. essential to keep DNA protected

B. carry genetic code from the nucleus to the ribosomes

C. has start and stop codons which initiates translation and releases the polypeptide chain into the cytoplasm

D. carries specific amino acids to be joined onto the polypeptide chain


phenotype

A. physical appearance

B. genetics

C. photosynthetic organisms


Secondary structure

A. the amino acid sequence

B. formation of alpha helices and beta sheets

C. secondary folding caused by the interaction between the polypeptide and its immediate environment, results in the formation of overall 3D structure
