,RNA chunks that contain the actual coding genes - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Exons
filler portions of RNA that are removed from transcript - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Introns
a nucleotide exchange that changes all of the amino acids after it (usually an
insertion, deletion, or duplication) - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Frameshift variant
An organism's genetic makeup, or allele combinations. - 🧠 ANSWER
✔✔Genotype
an exchange of nucleotides that leads to a change in a single amino acid within a
chain - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Missense variant
a nucleotide exchange that leads to stopping translation early by encoding a stop
codon - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Nonsense variant
a complex organic substance present in living cells, especially DNA or RNA,
whose molecules consist of many nucleotides linked in a long chain. - 🧠 ANSWER

✔✔Protein
more portable than DNA; has uracil and ribose sugars - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔RNA
an exchange of nucleotides that results in identical amino acid chains to the
original template - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Silent variant
a common variant affecting one nucleotide (must be present in more than 1% of
the population) - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔SNP
synthesis of an RNA molecule from a DNA template - 🧠 ANSWER
✔✔Transcription
decoding of a mRNA message into a polypeptide chain - 🧠 ANSWER
✔✔Translation
A regulatory protein that binds to DNA and affects transcription of specific genes.
- 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Transcription factor
in the 5' to 3' direction - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔How are genes typically written?
