Q.
RNA molecule, complementary to the original DNA strand, that carries instructions from the DNA in the nucleus for the assembly of amino acids to the rest of the cell (ribosomes specifically) so that proteins/traits can be made

Q.
decoding of a mRNA message into a polypeptide chain of amino acids (protein) from codons; Takes place in the cytoplasm/ribosomes
9

Q.
process in which part of the nucleotide sequence of DNA is copied into a complementary sequence in mRNA; Takes place in the nucleus only. (DNA --> RNA)

Q.
structure that contains the cell's genetic material (DNA) and controls the cell's activities

Q.
A change or mistake in the DNA sequence--There are a variety of different types; Some are harmful, but some are not; Without them, we would have no genetic variation

Q.
A mutation that changes everything in the amino acid sequence from the point of the mutation on; There are 2 types: insertion and deletion
16
30 sec
Q.
Also called a point mutation when one base is swapped out for another and only one codon/amino acid is changed; There are 3 types: missense, nonsense, and silent
