Question Match the definition with the correct term. A section of DNA that codes for a protein A-T C-G A double-helix A change in the normal sequence of purines or pyrimidines that may have no effect on an individual, could increase one’s survivability, or could cause harm. When the original strand of DNA is used to create a new strand of DNA a sequence of three bases that form a unit of genetic code in mRNA Each alternate version of a gene is called a(n) Having different alleles for a particular gene, ex Hh mutation, chargaff's Rule, Bacteriophage, semiconservative replication, deoxyribonucleic acid, gene, condon, allele, phenotype, heterozygous, homomzygous

Here are the terms matched with their definitions:

  1. A section of DNA that codes for a protein - gene
  2. A-T C-G - Chargaff's Rule
  3. A double-helix - deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)
  4. A change in the normal sequence of purines or pyrimidines that may have no effect on an individual, could increase one’s survivability, or could cause harm. - mutation
  5. When the original strand of DNA is used to create a new strand of DNA - semiconservative replication
  6. A sequence of three bases that form a unit of genetic code in mRNA - codon
  7. Each alternate version of a gene is called a(n) - allele
  8. Having different alleles for a particular gene, ex Hh - heterozygous
  9. Having the same alleles for a particular gene - homozygous (not mentioned directly in your options but typically referred to)
