Students have asked these similar questions
identify the following genetic terms in order from smallest to largest.Gene - Nucleotide - Base-pair - Genome. First is the smallest in size:
Define the following terms: genome, chromosome, gene in the context of the DNA structure
Each of these six terms fits into one (and only one) of the following blanks:
bases, proteins, amino acids, genes, chromosomes, codons.
Write the letter corresponding to each space and then write which of the five terms goes with that letter. For instance, if you think the answer to space “a” is “chromosomes,” write a = chromosomes.
DNA is found on pairs of ______a_______. ______b_______ are series of three _____c_____ that code for particular _____d_______. _____e_____ are specific strings of codons. Amino acids are put together to form ________f______.
