Answer the following question given this paragraph: 3.4 Protein Synthesis DNA stores the information necessary for instructing the cell to perform all of its functions. Cells use the genetic code stored within DNA to build proteins, which ultimately determine the structure and function of the cell. This genetic code lies in the particular sequence of nucleotides that make up each gene along the DNA molecule. To "read" this code, the cell must perform two sequential steps. In the first step, transcription, the DNA code is converted into a RNA code. A molecule of messenger RNA that is complementary to a specific gene is synthesized in a process similar to DNA replication. The molecule of mRNA provides the code to synthesize a protein. In the process of translation, the mRNA attaches to a ribosome. Next, tRNA molecules shuttle the appropriate amino acids to the ribosome, one-by-one, coded by sequential triplet codons on the mRNA, until the protein is fully synthesized. When completed, the mRNA detaches from the ribosome, and the protein is released. Typically, multiple ribosomes attach to a single mRNA molecule at once such that multiple proteins can be manufactured from the mRNA concurrently. Q: In the cellular process of transcription, dna code is converted into what other kind of code? Choices: - dpa - sna - fna - rna A:
rna
Answer the following question given this paragraph: The rate the magma cools determines the texture of the rock. Q: The rate the magma cools determines what property of the rock? Choices: - size - color - location - texture A:
texture
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: The cytoplasm consists of everything inside the plasma membrane, including watery cytosol and organelles. The cytoplasm suspends the organelles and does other jobs. The cytoskeleton crisscrosses the cytoplasm and gives the cell an internal framework. Q: The cytoskeleton crisscrosses the cytoplasm, this gives what to the cell? Choices: - external passageway - internal passageway - external framework - internal framework A:
A: internal framework
Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: form of mechanical weathering that occurs as water expands when it freezes, wedging apart rock. Q: What term describes weathering that occurs as water expands when it freezes, wedging apart rock? Choices: - chemical weathering - cleavage - erosion - mechanical weathering A:
Answer: mechanical weathering

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Measurement of exposure to radioactivity is important for anyone who deals with radioactive materials on a regular basis. Perhaps the simplest device is a personal dosimeter, which is a film badge that will fog up when exposed to radiation. The amount of fogging is proportional to the amount of radiation present. Q: What is measured with a personal dosimeter? Choices: - alcohol concentration - blood insulin - internal temperature - exposure to radioactivity A:
**Answer**
exposure to radioactivity

Answer the following question given this paragraph: The rising air cools as it goes higher in the atmosphere. If it is moist, the water vapor may condense. Clouds may form, and precipitation may fall. Q: Does air temperature increase or decrease as it rises higher in the atmosphere? Choices: - both - increase - neither - decrease A:
**Answer**
decrease
