Question
Several different nucleic acids are involved
in the process of getting a protein
produced from a gene. DNA contains the
"genetic code" for the protein. DNA is
double-stranded, but only one strand is
transcribed into MRNA. The MRNA then
goes into the cytoplasm where it is
translated into protein with the help of
TRNA. At each stage of the process, there is
base complementarity (A pairs with T/U
and C pairs with G) between the nucleic
acids involved to ensure the integrity of
the DNA blueprint for the protein being
produced. Therefore, some of the four
strands of nucleic acids involved will
match (except U replaces T in RNA) and
some will have base complementarity.
Indicate whether there is matching (1) or
base complementarity (2) between the
following nucleic acids.
DNA sense strand and MRNA
DNA sense strand and tRNA
DNA antisense strand and
MRNA
MRNA and TRNA
