A base found in DNA but not RNA
The opposite directions run by two strands of DNA double helix
Protein synthesis
When mRNA is synthesized from DNA
When a strand of DNA makes a new copy prior to cell division
The RNA that carries amino acids to the site of protein synthesis
A series of three bases on tRNA complimentary to a codon
A three base sequence on mRNA that specifies an amino acid
A change in the base sequence of DNA
DNA containing DNA material from two or more sources
Process by which copies of DNA are duplicated

Answer 1

a)Base found in RNA but not DNA is URACIL

. Uracil is present in RNA and binds to adenine, whereas thymine is present in DNA and binds to adenine

b) Base found in DNA but not in RNA is THYMINE

c)The opposite directions run by two strands of DNA double helix are ANTIPARALLEL

d)Protein synthesis is atype of POLYMERASE CHAIN REACTION

e)When mRNA is synthesized from DNA is called TRANSCRIPTION

f)When a strand of DNA makes a new copy prior to cell division REPLICATION

g)The RNA that carries amino acids to the site of protein synthesis is tRNA

h)A series of three bases on tRNA complimentary to a codon is ANTICODON

i)A three base sequence on mRNA that specifies an amino acid is CODON

j)A change in the base sequence of DNA is called MUTATION

k)DNA containing DNA material from two or more sources is called Recombinant DNA

l)Process by which copies of DNA are duplicated Translation
