How does a DNA sequence code for a protein in a cell? DNA is converted into mRNA which carries the code of the protein and the cell translates this code and makes the protein DNA is converted into tRNA which then forms proteins DNA is converted into rRNA which then forms proteins DNA directly forms proteins without any intermediate

What does it mean that the strands of DNA are complementary? The strands are identical in sequence The nitrogen bases of one strand pair up with the nitrogen bases of the other strand The strands are completely unrelated The strands are parallel but do not interact

The nitrogen bases of one strand pair up with the nitrogen bases of the other strand

What is Chargaff's Rule regarding DNA base pairing? Adenine must pair with cytosine and guanine must pair with thymine Adenine must pair with guanine and thymine must pair with cytosine Adenine must pair with adenine and guanine must pair with guanine Adenine must pair with thymine and guanine must pair with cytosine

Adenine must pair with thymine and guanine must pair with cytosine

What does it mean that two strands of DNA are antiparallel? They run in opposite directions (one strand is upside down) They run in the same direction They are parallel but do not interact They are perpendicular to each other

They run in opposite directions (one strand is upside down)
