What does 5-bromouracil replace in a DNA chain and what is its complimentary paring? Why is this important?
|
5-bromouracil replaces thymine, but it binds with guanine, which is a point mutation.
|
|
What type of mutation results from UV light radiation?
|
Induced mutation
|
|
What type of mutation results from x-ray radiation?
|
Induced mutation
|
|
How does a cell become an Hfr cell?
|
By incorporating the cell's plasmid into its DNA chromosomes, a F+ becomes a Hfr cell.
|
|
When the Hfr cell performs conjugation with an F- cell, what does the Hfr cell transfer to the F- cell?
|
During conjugation, the Hfr cell transfers part of the chromosome that has the inorporated plasmid to the recipient cell.
|
|
What usually happens to the Hfr cell's chromosome when it transfers the chromosome to a recipient cell?
|
Usually, when a Hfr cell transfers the chromosome with a plasmid incorporated in it, the chromosome breaks or fragments.
|
|
What is the result of the chromosome fragmenting when an Hfr cell transfers the chromosome with the attached plasmid to the recipient cell?
|
During conjugation, if the Hfr cell's chromosome with its incorporated plasmid fragments, the recipient cell only obtains a portion of the chromosome and the plasmid.
|
|
After an F- cell completes conjugation with a Hfr cell, what is the recipient cell called?
|
Recombinant F- cell
|
|
Other than conjugation, how does an Hfr cell pass on its genetic information?
|
Vertical gene transfer
|
|
Which type of virus uses an envelope to attach to a host cell?
|
Human viruses
|
|
Which type of virus attaches to the host cell using tail fibers?
|
Bacteriophages
|
|
What must a virus have before it can attach to human cells?
|
A lipid envelope
|
|
How do I stop a human virus, if it is intracellular?
|
Stop it from uncoating
|
|
What would I prevent viral infection, Vitamin C or a surgical mask?
|
A surgical mask
|
|
Why does preventing viral attachment stop viral infection?
|
Viral bioreplication only occurs intracellular
|
|
Which type of virus causes an infection of a host cell that does not directly lead to the cell's death?
|
Temperate phages
|
|
Which viral life cycle actually has the phage replicating itself?
|
The lytic cycle
|
|
What must happen in the lytic cycle before a virulent page multiplies extracellularly?
|
The lysis of the host cell must release the phages extracellularly
|
|
What are the two types of mutations?
|
Induced and Spontaneous
|
