Protein is generated using RNA as instructions in a process known as translation.
Compare Polymers and Monomers.
Polymers are made up of individual sub-units called monomers.
True or False? DNA, RNA, and protein are all linear polymers.
,True. The structure of DNA, RNA, and protein is similar in that they are all linear polymers
because each individual unit (or monomer) is attached to only one or two other units, resulting
in a long chain.
What monomers make up DNA? RNA? Protein?
The monomers that make up DNA are known as deoxyribonucleotides.
The monomers that make up RNA are known as ribonucleotides.
The monomers that make up protein are known as amino acids.
What benefits does the linear polymer structure of DNA, RNA, and protein provide during
transcription and translation?
The linear polymer structure of DNA, RNA, and protein helps to transfer and preserve the
encoding of information during transcription and translation.
What is the central dogma of molecular biology?
DNA makes RNA, which makes protein.
How can one easily differentiate transcription and translation using base words "script" and
"translate"?
, The word "script" refers to written forms. Transcription goes from one written form (DNA) to
another (RNA) using a common "alphabet" (aka nucleic acids).
Translation refers to the need to "translate" from one language to another. Here, nucleic acids
from one language (RNA) are translated into amino acids of another language (protein).
RNA is used as a template in the formation of cDNA through the process of:
What is the function of reverse transcriptase?
Reverse transcriptase is the enzyme that carries out reverse transcription, in which
complementary DNA (cDNA) is generated from an RNA template.
What is most likely to occur if a patient with HIV is administered a medicinal drug that
deactivates the enzyme reverse transcriptase?
(A) The patient will die.
