What is the structure of DNA called? - Answer--the double helix -adenine pairs with thymine - they form 2 hydrogen bonds together -guanine pairs with cytosine - they form 3 hydrogen bonds together while genetic information is transferred from parent to offspring via DNA duplication, genetic information is transferred from DNA to RNA (which is called transcription) and then RNA to protein (which is called translation) - Answer-the central dogma RNA translated into protein (every 3 RNA bas...

Describe DNA structure - Answer-DNA forms a double stranded helix and adenine pairs with thymine, and cytosine pairs with guanine What pair forms hydrogen bonds and how many - Answer-thymine/adenine form 2 bonds guanine/cytosine form 3 bonds Explain "the central dogma" - Answer-DNA turning into RNA turning into Protein What is transcription - Answer-Copying of DNA code to RNA, one nucleotide at a time so it is complementary to the DNA What is translation - Answer-RNA gets translated int...
