| Building block or monomer of nucleic acids | ||
| 5 carbon sugar, phosphate group and nitrogen base | ||
| Sugar found in DNA | ||
| Nitrogen base that is the complementary pair to Thymine in DNA and complementary pair to Uracil in RNA | ||
| Nitrogen base that is the complementary pair to Adenine | ||
| Nitrogen base that is the complementary pair to Cytosine | ||

| Scientists that were credited with the model of the double helix | ||
| Scientist that produced Photo 51 that allowed Watson and Crick to create a model of DNA | ||
| Indicates an enzyme; example helicase or polymerase | ||
| Where DNA is found in the cell and where transcription takes place | ||
| Process by which DNA makes exact copies of itself | ||
| Messenger RNA (mRNA), Transfer RNA (tRNA) and Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) | ||
| Carries instructions for making proteins from the nucleus to the ribosome in the cytoplasm | ||
| Brings amino acids to the ribosome | ||
| Globular form that makes up the ribosome. Produces enzymes to link amino acids | ||
| RNA is produced from the DNA instructions; message from the DNA is copied on the mRNA in the nucleus | ||
| The building block of protien | ||
| Sequence of 3 bases on mRNA that codes for a specific amino acid | ||
| Sequence of 3 bases on tRNA that is complementary to mRNA codon | ||
| Formation of proteins using info coded in DNA; carried out by RNA | ||
| Long chain of amino acids in correct order | ||
| Short segment of DNA that direct formation of proteins | ||
| Project with a goal to determine the sequence of base pairs which make up DNA and to identify and map the approximately 20,000-25,000 genes | ||
| Process of converting information in mRNA into a sequence of amino acids in protein; takes place at the ribosome | ||
| Protein factory of the cell | ||
