Back 8

DNA molecule

Front 9

Which of the following is a nucleotide found in DNA?

Back 9

deoxyribose+phophate group+cytosine

Because of base pairing in DNA, the percentage of

Back 10

thymine molecules in DNA is about equal to the percentage of adenine molecules

Front 11

The table in FIgure 12-3 shows the results of measuring the percentages of the four bases of DNA of several different organisms. Some of the values are missing from the table. Based on Chagraff's rule, %s of guanine bases in chicken DNA should be around

Back 11

21.5%

Front 12

Based on Chagraff's rule, the % of cytosine in DNA of bacterium S Lutea should be around

Back 12

29.4%

Front 13

Rosalind Franklin contributed to the understanding of DNA by

Back 13

producing the images of DNA molecules using XRay

Front 14

WATF statements correctly describes Chagraff's contribution to the study of DNA?

Back 14

Chargraff showed that adenine and thymine were found in equal percents in DNA

Front 15

Which scientist(s) figured out the shape of DNA?

Back 15

Hershey and Chase

Front 16

Which of the following forms a base pair with Thymine

Back 16

Adenine

Front 17

DNA replications results in two DNA molecules

Back 17

each with a new strand and one original strand

Front 18

During DNA replication, a DNA strand that has the bases CTAGGT produces a strand with the bases

Back 18

GATCCA

Front 19

in figure 12-5 what nucleotide is going to be added at point 1 opposite thymine?

Back 19

adenine

Front 20

in 12-5 what is adding base pairs to the strand?

Back 20

DNA polymerase

Front 21

In both prokaryotes and eukaryotes, DNA replication happens

Back 21

before cell division

Front 22

RNA contains the sugar

Back 22

Ribose

Front 23

Unlike DNA, RNA contains

Back 23

uracil

Front 24

Which of the following are found in both DNA and RNA

Back 24

deoxyribose, phosphate groups, and guanine

Front 25

Which nucleotide in 13-1 indicates the nucleic acid above is RNA?

Back 25

uracil

Front 26

Which of the following is true

Back 26

RNA is single stranded

Front 27

Which type of RNA brings the info in the genetic code from the nucleus to other parts of the cell?

Back 27

mRNA

Front 28

WOTF is true of transcription?

Front 29

Which molecules are involves in protein synthesis?

Back 29

messenger RNA, ribosomal RNA and transfer RNA

Front 30

During Eukaryotic transcription, an RNA molecule is formed that is

Back 30

complementary to part of one strand of DNA

Front 31

What does figure 13-2 show?

Back 31

the genetic code?

Front 32

How many nucleotides are needed to specify three amino acids?

Back 32

9

Front 33

There are 64 codons and 20 amino acids. WOTF is true?

Back 33

several different codons can specify the same amino acid

Front 34

In fig 13-3, which amino acid is specified by the mRNA code CCC?

Back 34

Pro

Front 35

in Fig 13-3 which code specifies the same amino acid as UAU?

Back 35

UAC

Front 36

What happens during translation?

Back 36

the cell uses a messenger RNA code to make protiens

Front 37

During translation, the type of amino acid that is added to the growing polypeptide depends on the

Back 37

codon on the mRNA and the anticodon on the tRNA

Front 38

Genes contain instructions for assembling

Back 38

proteins

Front 39

Which is the correct sequence of the transfer of information in most organisms?

Back 39

DNA to RNA to protein

Front 40

In eukaryotes

Back 40

transcription takes place in the nucleus and translation takes place in the cytoplasm

Front 41

When a chromosome undergoes a deletion mutation, information is

Back 41

lost
