DNA Vocabulary 1. amino acids Definition: The essential building blocks of life. Context: Amino acids provide the structural components of cells and tissues. 2. chromosome Definition: A structure found in the nucleus of cells. Context: Chromosomes carry genes, smaller units that contain DNA, the code of life. 3. cloning Definition: To create progeny asexually. Context: Dolly the sheep is recognized as the first mammal created through cloning. 4. DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) Definition: The genetic material contained in every cell and unique to each individual. Context: DNA is responsible for the enormous possibilities for variability in the living world. 5. nucleotide Definition: The basic structural unit of DNA. Context: Each strand of a DNA molecule is a linear arrangement of nucleotides, which are each composed of one sugar, one phosphate, and one nitrogenous base. 6. polypeptide Definition: A molecular chain of amino acids. Context: Proteins are actually polypeptides, chains of more than two amino acids. 7. protein Definition: A large, complex molecule made up of amino acids. Context: Human beings can synthesize at least 100,000 different kinds of proteins. 8. ribosome Definition: The material from which ribonucleic acid (RNA) is made. Context: Ribosome is key to protein synthesis, an essential part of the genetic code. 9. RNA (ribonucleic acid) Definition: A transient intermediary molecule similar to a single strand of DNA. Context: The protein-coding instructions from genes are transmitted indirectly through a messenger RNA molecule, which serves as a template for protein synthesis.
