The Correct Answer and Explanation is :
Here are the correct choices for the questions:
- RNA can leave the nucleus.
- mRNA is made during transcription.
- mRNA is made in the nucleus.
- DNA is located in the nucleus.
- Transcription converts DNA into mRNA.
- mRNA is used to carry the genetic code from DNA to the ribosomes.
- rRNA makes up the ribosome. (You may need to check this one in your book, but rRNA is part of the ribosome structure.)
- RNA uses uracil instead of thymine.
- Amino acids make up a protein.
- Transcription takes place in the nucleus.
- tRNA is used in translation.
- tRNA uses anticodons to match to the mRNA.
- Proteins are made at the ribosome.
- tRNA attaches the amino acids into a chain.
- tRNA is found in the cytoplasm.
- Translation converts mRNA into a protein.
- Translation takes place in the cytoplasm.
Explanation:
- RNA can leave the nucleus because it is transcribed from DNA and serves as a messenger that carries genetic information to the cytoplasm for protein synthesis. DNA stays inside the nucleus for protection and storage of genetic information.
- Transcription is the process where mRNA is made from a DNA template. It occurs in the nucleus, where DNA is located.
- mRNA is made in the nucleus, where DNA is found and the process of transcription occurs.
- DNA stays in the nucleus because it carries genetic information for the cell.
- Transcription takes the genetic code from DNA and creates a corresponding mRNA strand that can be translated into a protein.
- mRNA carries the genetic information copied from DNA to the ribosome, where protein synthesis occurs.
- rRNA, not tRNA, forms part of the ribosome structure. This helps the ribosome function during translation.
- RNA has uracil instead of thymine, a key difference from DNA, where thymine is used to pair with adenine.
- Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. They are assembled into proteins through the processes of translation and transcription.
- Transcription happens in the nucleus, where mRNA is transcribed from the DNA.
- tRNA is used during translation to help assemble the amino acids into proteins by matching its anticodons with the mRNA codons.
- Anticodons are the complementary sequences found on tRNA that match the codons on the mRNA during translation.
- Proteins are made in the ribosome, which is located in the cytoplasm or attached to the rough endoplasmic reticulum.
- tRNA attaches to amino acids and brings them to the ribosome, where the amino acids are connected to form a protein.
- tRNA is found in the cytoplasm, where it interacts with mRNA to synthesize proteins at the ribosome.
- Translation involves reading the mRNA sequence and translating it into a protein at the ribosome in the cytoplasm.
- Translation occurs in the cytoplasm, where ribosomes use mRNA to synthesize proteins.
This diagram represents the process of gene expression, starting with DNA, which is transcribed into mRNA in the nucleus. The mRNA then moves to the ribosome in the cytoplasm, where tRNA brings the corresponding amino acids, which are linked together to form a protein.
