BIOD 210 Module 5 DNA Replication, Transcription, and Translation (Portage learning)

How many base pairs are in the human genome? 3 billion 2. Structure of nucelotide Nitrogenous base, pentose sugar, and a phosphate group 3. Purines adenine (A) and guanine (G) 4. pyrimidines cytosine (C), thymine (T), and uracil (U) 5. nucleoside purine or pyrimidine base attached only to a sugar 6. nucleotide nitrogenous base attached to a sugar and a phosphate group 7. phosphodiester bond the type of bond that links the nucleotides in DNA or RNA. joins the phosphate group of one nucleotide to the hydroxyl group on the sugar of another nucleotide 8. Oligonucleotides nucleotide sequence of about thirty links 9. polynucleotides long nucleotide chains with 5' end and a 3' end 10. antiparallel refers to the arrangement of the double-helix, where one chain runs in the 5'-3' direction and one chain runs in the 3'-5' direction 11. complementarity the specificity of the A-T and C-G bonds. when oriented properly in the DNA helix, A and T form two hydrogen bonds, and G and C form three hydrogen bonds 12. are nitrogenous bases hydrophobic or hydrophillic? hydrophobic 13. are sugar-phosphate groups hyhydrophillic
