Biology Chapter 2 : Topic 11
DNA, RNA and Protein Synthesis
1 / 15
The flow of genetic information in a cell is correctly represented by:
Reasoning: Genetic information is first copied from DNA to RNA and then used to make proteins.
2 / 15
The process by which information from DNA is copied into RNA is called:
Reasoning: Transcription is the formation of RNA using DNA as a template.
3 / 15
The process in which RNA directs the synthesis of proteins is called:
Reasoning: Translation converts the genetic code in RNA into a protein.
4 / 15
During transcription, genetic information is transferred from:
Reasoning: DNA serves as the template for RNA formation.
5 / 15
Which molecule carries genetic instructions from DNA to ribosomes?
Reasoning: Messenger RNA (mRNA) transports genetic information from DNA to ribosomes.
6 / 15
Ribosomes are the sites where:
Reasoning: Ribosomes read mRNA and assemble amino acids into proteins.
7 / 15
If transcription is blocked in a cell, which molecule will not be produced from DNA?
Reasoning: Transcription is the process that produces RNA from DNA.
8 / 15
Which sequence correctly describes protein production?
Reasoning: This sequence represents the central dogma of molecular biology.
9 / 15
A mutation occurs in DNA. Which molecule will most directly receive the altered information first?
Reasoning: RNA is transcribed directly from DNA before proteins are synthesized.
10 / 15
The main role of mRNA in protein synthesis is to:
Reasoning: mRNA acts as a messenger carrying genetic information.
11 / 15
Which statement best explains the relationship between DNA and proteins?
Reasoning: Genes in DNA contain the code used to synthesize proteins.
12 / 15
If a cell cannot produce mRNA, the immediate effect will be:
Reasoning: Without mRNA, genetic instructions cannot reach ribosomes for protein production.
13 / 15
During translation, ribosomes use information present in:
Reasoning: Ribosomes read the sequence of mRNA to assemble proteins.
14 / 15
Why can a change in DNA affect the structure of a protein?
Reasoning: Changes in DNA alter the RNA message, which can change the resulting protein.
15 / 15
Which statement summarizes the role of DNA, RNA, and proteins?
Reasoning: DNA stores genetic instructions, RNA transfers them, and proteins carry out most cellular activities.
