Document Summary
Cells and genomes: heredity is central to the definition of life, everything is stored in long strands of dna (gcat, every monomer in one dna strand = nucleotide, nucleotide= two parts, sugar with phosphate and a base, sugars are linked together by phosphate group = phosphate backbone, bases protrude from existing strand bind to bases of the strand being synthesized. All cells translate rna into protein the same way: messenger rna reads groups of 3 nucleotides at a time or a codon = codes for one amino acid, code is read out by transfer rna trna attach to one end of specific amino acid and displays at the other end a sequences of three nucleotides= anticodon, mrna molecules bring amino acids together and match up base pairs through their anticodons with its successive codons amino acids then link together and trna are relieved of their burdens.

- How is replication different from transcription?
- Refer to Exercise 4. Write the letters for the base sequence ofmRNA in the spaces below DNA. Note that the order is reversed;start with the 3â end of the DNA strand and the 5â end of the mRNAstrand. Transcription is DNA to mRNA. Note RNA contains Uracilinstead of Thymine; There is no thymine in RNA.
