In humans, insulin is manufactured in the pancreas, insulin is a peptide hormone that causes the body’s cells to take up glucose. The blueprint for the polypeptide chain that is insulin is found in the — of specialized pancreatic cells.

In type 1 diabetes the immune system erroneously attacks the beta cells that produce insulin in your pancreas. It causes permanent damage, leaving your pancreas unable to produce insulin. Exactly what triggers the immune system to do that isn't clear. Genetic and environmental factors may play a role.

Explanation:

Nucleic acids

Composed of Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen and phosphorous.

DNA

The universal code that stores genetic information in all organisms

Semi

conservative-Bases in original strand split and new nucleotides complementary base pair to form two new strands

Mutations

Any change to the DNA sequence

Gene mutation

Permanent change in the DNA sequence that makes up a gene.

Transcription

The process of copying a nucleotide sequence of DNA to form a complementary strand of mRNA

Translation

Process by which mRNA is decoded and proteins are made.

Codon

Three nucleotide bases

tRNA

Reads the codon on the mRNA using anticodons and the complimentary base pair rules and delivers the amino acids

What would be the replicated DNA strand for the following DNA sequence?...GCGTATG

CGCATATC

What would be the mRNA and tRNA be for the following DNA sequence?...AGGTTA

mRNA...UCCAAU. tRNA...AGGUUA.

The process of converting the genetic message from DNA into is called transcription.

mRNA

How many amino acids are in the human body and what do we call the bond that holds them together?

20; Peptide bond

A single strand of DNA contains the following nine nucleotides in order ACTTATGGA. What sequence of bases will be present on the complementary strand of DNA?

TGAATACCT

In humans, insulin is manufactured in the pancreas. Insulin is a peptide hormone that causes the body's cells to take up glucose. The blueprint for the polypeptide chain that is insulin is found in the of specialized pancreatic cells.

DNA

Given the sequence of DNA nucleotide bases TTAGCCTTG, give the complementary mRNA produced during transcription.

AATCGGAAC

Identify the correct sequence of molecules, as a gene goes from coded information in the nucleus, to the product the cell wants to make.

DNA...messenger RNA...transfer RNA...Protein

Why is DNA replication considered semiconservative?

Each half of the old DNA strand serves as a template for the new growing strand causing the copied DNA to half new and half old.
