Chargaff's Rule
There are equal amounts of Adenine to Thymine and Guanine to Cytosine
Guanine
One of the four nitrogenous bases, it pairs with Adenine in DNA.
Uracil
One of the four nitrogenous bases, it pairs with Adenine in RNA.
DNA
Nucleotides
Chromosome
Messenger RNA is a type of RNA that carries genetic information from the DNA in the nucleus to the cytoplasm
Organic molecules that play essential roles regarding genetic information
Ribosomal RNA is a structural part of ribosomes
RNA
The opposite arrangement of the sugar-phosphate backbones in a DNA double helix
Adenine
tRNA
Transfer RNA transports amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis
They are segments of DNA that contain the instructions for building proteins, which are essential for the structure, function, and regulation of the body's cells, tissues, and organs
Forms the structural framework of nucleic acids
Base Pairing Rules
In DNA, Adenine pairs with Thymine while Guanine pairs with Cytosine
Purines
One of two types of nitrogenous bases, it is characterized by their two fused rings. The two bases are adenine and guanine
Nitrogenous base in both RNA and DNA, pairs with Guanine
One of the two types of nitrogenous bases, They are characterized by a six-membered ring structure composed of four carbon atoms and two nitrogen atoms.The two bases are thymine and cytosine.
Hydrogen Bonding
Attractive force between a hydrogen molecule covalently bonded to an electronegative molecule
