that go on inside a cell that help
an organism to survive.
Gene Expression: The
conversion of the information
from the genes into mRNA via
transcription and then to proteins
via translation, making the traits Synthesis: refers to a
DNA mRNA tRNA -­‐ amino acids combination of two or more
entities that together form
something new Genes: a segment of DNA that codes for a specific trait Codon: a three-­‐nucleotide sequence of mRNA that codes for a particular amino acid Anticodon: A three-­‐sequence of polypeptide chains proteins traits The
sequence of
nitrogen bases code for your DNA.
Certain segments of genes code for your
traits. You inherit these from your
parents. They code for the proteins that
make up your traits.
tRNA that that is complementary to an mRNA codon that transfers amino acids together into polypeptide chains Amino Acids (A.A): 20 different monomers that build together to form proteins Polypeptide Chains: A chain
of amino acids joined together
through peptide bonds What are the two cellular processes
involved in the production of
proteins? Transcription and transl.
