This is produced during
transcription.
D 100
What is RNA?
D 100
This is the location of the
transcription process in the
cell.
D 200
What is the nucleus?
D 200

the bonding of RNA
nucleotides during
transcription.

What is X-Ray
radiation?
F 100
This is the type of chemical
bond found between the two
strands of the double helix--between the nitrogenous
bases.
F 200
What is the hydrogen
bond?
F 200
These sections are edited out
of mRNA during processing.
F 300
What are introns?
F 300
The major portion of the translation
process in which the chain of amino
acids grows as the ribosome moves
along the mRNA.
F 400
What is elongation?
F 400
This adjective is used to describe the
DNA strands in the double helix,
because one strand runs in the 5’ to 3’
direction, while the other runs from
the 3’ to 5’ direction.
F 500
What is
antiparallel
?
F 500
The Final Jeopardy Category is:

Please record your wager.
Click on screen to begin
This is the location of the
ribosomes in a cell, where
proteins to be exported are
produced.
Click on screen to continue
They are attached to the
endoplasmic reticulum. (They are
modified and exported from the
cell via the cytomembrane
system.)
