| Term | Definition |
|---|
| DNA | double stranded helix |
| DNA | 4 nitrogenous bases; adenine, guanine, cytosine, thymine |
| DNA | directs protein synthesis |
| DNA | needs the enzymes DNA polymerase and DNA ligase |
| DNA polymerase | breaks hydrogen bond |
| DNA ligase | puts together |
| DNA | stays within the nucleus |
| DNA | Shows base complimentary, A-T, C-G |
| DNA | Only one type |
| DNA | the sugar is deoxyribose, 5 carbons, and 4 oxygens |
| DNA | the condons represent genes |
| RNA | single stranded helix |
| RNA | 4 nitrogenous bases, adenine, guanine, cytosine, uracil |
| RNA | actually produces protien, does it |
| RNA | producing during transcription |
| RNA | needs the enzymes RNA polymerase and RNA ligase |

| RNA | shows base complimentarity, C-G and A-U |
| RNA | 3 types are produced, messenger, ribosomal and transfer |
| RNA | the sugar is ribose, 5 oxygens 5 carbons |
| RNA | the codons represent amino acids |
| codon | in RNA, a three-base "word" that codes for one amino acid, in DNA, a three-nucleotide sequence that encodes an amino acid or signifies a start signal or a stop signal |
