| A | B |
| Nucleus | The "master recipe book" is stored here which contains all of the information for that organism. |
| Cellular respiration | The process that is responsible for supplying all of the energy needs for the cell. |
| Transcription | The process by which a "specific" recipe (set of instructions/blueprint) is copied in order to make a specific protein for whatever. |
| diffusion | The process by which all of the ingredients (raw materials) will that will be used in protein synthesis, DNA replication, respiration etc.... will use in order to get into the cell. |
| DNA | an organic compound that consist of nucleotides that contain thymine. |
| Amino Acid | The "raw material" that T-RNA will bring to the ribosome. |
| Uracil | The nucleic acid that is only found in RNA molecules. |
| Codon | The name for the sequence of 3 nucleotides (bases) on M-RNA. |
| T-RNA | Brings the raw materials that are needed for protein synthesis to the ribosomes. |
| Adenine | Is a purine found in DNA that alwasys bonds to the pyramidine known as thymine. |
| Nucleotides | Made up of a sugar (either ribose or deoxyribose), a nucleic acid and a phospate group. |
| Ribose | A normal 5 carbon sugar. |
| Translation | The "process" by which the code on the M-RNA is "decoded" by the T-RNA. |
| Enzymes | The "machines" that are involved in every chemical reaction, such as DNA replication, transcription, translation,, respiration, photosynthesis, hydrolysis and dehydration synthesis (condensation reactions). |
| Diet | The "source" of the raw materisls that will be needed for replication, translation, and respiration. |
| Replication | The "process" by whlich an exact duplicate of teh whole "recipe (DNA) book" will be made. |
| anti-codin | The sequence of 3 nucleotides on the T-RNA that is the "mirror" image(complimentary) to the "codon" on the M-RNA |
| Initiator codon`/"start codon" | the codon that signals for the translation of M-RNA. |
| stop or nonsense codon` | The codon on M-RNA the signals the end of a specific "recipe" for a protein. Found on the M-RNA. |
| condensation reaction/dehydration synthesis | The process that will occur at the ribosome where the chain of amino acids will be bonded together to form a specific protein. |
