RNA
from
DNA
Transcription
results

factors
(TFs)

transcription
of
specific
genes.
Can
wither
activate
or
repress
expression
of
genes
Termination
of
transcription
-
ANS
RNA
polymerase
reaches
a
terminator
sequence
(Stop
codon)

detaches
from
the
template
Translation

by
which
mRNA
is
decoded
and
a
protein
is
produced.

takes
place

ANS
cytoplasm
Codon
-
ANS
A
specific
sequence
of
three
bases
on
a
strand
of

genetic
code
information
for
a
amino
acid
Amino
acids
are
-
ANS
building
blocks
of
proteins
tRNA
-
ANS
An
RNA
molecule
that
functions
as
an
interpreter
between
nucleic
acid
and
protein
language
by
picking
up
specific
amino
acids
and
recognizing
the
appropriate
codons
in
the
mRNA
Codons
allow
-
ANS
for
DNA
and
RNA
to
communicate
Gene
Regulation
-
ANS
the
process
of
turning
genes
on
and
off
Gene
Regulation
occurs
-
ANS
during
transcription

factors
(TFs)
determine
-
ANS
amount
of
protein
product

-
ANS
DNA
subunit;
1
DNA,
1
phosphate,
1

base
Mutation
-
ANS
permanent
change
in
a
DNA
/RNA
sequence
that
affects
genetic
information
germline
mutation
-
ANS
happens
in
germ
cells,
inheritable,
in
all
cells
somatic
mutation
-
ANS
A
mutation
that
occurs
in
the
body
cells
from
spontaneous
development.
Cannot
be
inherited.
Acquired
causes
of
mutations
-
ANS
•
Incorrect
copying
of
the
DNA
sequence/
Environmental
•Exposure
•Spontaneous
silent
mutation
-
ANS
alters
a
base
but
does
not
change
the
amino
acid
DNA
is
-
ANS
master
blueprint
for
human
being
Gene
-
ANS
the
basic
unit
of
inheritance
DNA
makes
-
ANS
proteins
Chromosomes
-
ANS
threadlike
structures
made
of
DNA
molecules
that
contain
the
genes
23
pairs
of
-
ANS
chromosomes
Allele
-
ANS
variant
of
a
gene
A
cell
holds
how
many
alleles
of
each
gene?
-
ANS
2,
one
from
mom
and
one
from
dad
Phenotype
-
ANS
An
organism's
physical
appearance,
or
visible
traits.
Affected
by
environment
Genotype
-
ANS
genetic
makeup
of
an
organism
locus
-
ANS
Location
of
a
gene
on
a
chromosome
Homozygous
-
ANS
An
organism
that
has
two
identical
alleles
for
a
trait
Heterozygous
-
ANS
An
organism
that
has
two
different
alleles
for
a
trait
Recessive
-
ANS
trait
of
an
organism
that
can
be
masked
by
the
dominant
form
of
a
trait
Dominant
-
ANS
An
allele
that
is
always
expressed Carrier
-
ANS
A
person
whose
genotype
includes
a
gene
with
disease
that
is
not
expressed
in
the
phenotype.
Expresstivity
-
ANS
the
degree
to
which
a
particular
genotype
is
expressed
in
the
phenotype
Spontaneous
mutations
are
-
ANS
mutation
that
occurs
within
the
body
cells
and
NOT
the
germline
cells,
caused
by
errors
in
DNA
Mutagen
-
ANS
chemical
or
physical

is
an
example
of
what:
-
ANS
a
mutagen
Anticipation
-
ANS
signs
and
symptoms
of
genetic
condition
tend
to
become
more

appear

generation
to
generation
Huntington's
disease
is
an
example
of
-
ANS
A
disease

individuals
with
a
specific
genotype
who
also
express
the

phenotype
100%
penetrance
-
ANS
gene
will
always
be
expressed
autosomal
dominant
means
-
ANS
at
least
one
parent

for
-
ANS
autosomal
dominant
disorders
Inheritance
of
Autosomal
Dominant
-
ANS
50%
chance
autosomal
recessive
can
be
passed
if
-
ANS
two
copies
of
an
abnormal
gene
must
be
present
in
order
for
the
disease
or
trait
to
develop
autosomal
recessive
