| Question |
Answer |
| 3 PROCESSES THAT MUST OCCUR FOR THE PROTEINS TO BE MADE CORRECTLY- |
DNA REPLICATION, TRANSCRIPTION, AND TRANSLATION |
| THE SHAPE OF A DNA MOLECULE IS USUALLY DESCRIBED AS A- |
DOUBLE HELIX |
| (TRUE OR FALSE) THE SEQUENCE OF THE NUCLEOTIDES IS CHANGED. |
FALSE |
| WHAT WOULD BE THE DNA COMPLEMENT TO THE SECTION OF DNA =GCCTTA= |
CGGAAT |
| DNA CONTAINS GENETIC INFORMATION IN ITS- |
NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE |
| (TRUE OR FALSE) CHROMOSOMES ARE MADE UP OF RNA AND PROTEIN. GENES ARE not SECTIONS OF DNA ON A CHROMOSOME. |
FALSE |
| WHY ARE PROTEINS IMPORTANT? |
THE CELL'S PROTEINS CONTROL ALL OF THE PROCESSES IN THAT CELL |
| WHAT ARE THE 3 PARTS OF NUCLEOTIDES? |
A SUGAR, A PHOSPHATE GROUP, AND A NITROGEN BASE |
| WHAT ARE THE FOUR BASES OF DNA? |
ADENINE, GUANINE, THYMINE, CYTOSINE |
| WHAT IS THE SUGAR IN DNA CALLED? |
DEOXYRIBOSE |
| WHO ARE THE 2 SCIENTISTS THAT DISCOVERED THE TWO CHAINS OF NUCLEOTIDES? |
CRICK AND WATSON |
| THE TWO CHAINS ARE JOINED TOGETHER AT THE NITROGEN BASES BY- |
HYDROGEN BONDS |
| WATSON AND CRICK ALSO DISCOVERED THAT THE DNA IS TWISTED IN A SHAPE CALLED A- |
DOUBLE HELIX |
| WHAT MAKES UP THE "RUNGS" OF THE DOUBLE HELIX "LADDER" STRUCTURE? |
THE COMPLEMENTARY BASE PAIRS |
| WHY IS THE SEQUENCE OF THE NUCLEOTIDES VERY IMPORTANT? |
NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCES FORM THE GENETIC INFORMATION OF EVERY ORGANISM |
| (TRUE OR FALSE) IF A NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE CHANGES, THEN THE INFORMATION THAT IT CARRIES WILL STAY THE SAME. |
FALSE |
| (TRUE OR FALSE) CHROMOSOMES ARE MADE OF DNA AND PROTEIN. |
TRUE |
| WHAT ARE THE SECTIONS OF DNA THAT PROVIDE INFORMATION ABOUT SPECIFIC TRAITS? |
GENES |
| WHAT IS THE FIRST STEP OF DNA REPLICATION? |
THE TWO STRANDS OF DNA UNZIP. THE HYDROGEN BONDS ARE BROKEN AND THE NITROGEN BASES ARE EXPOSED. |
| DURING DNA REPLICATION, A SECTION OF THE DNA HAS A NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE OF A-T-T-G-C-C. WHAT WOULD BE THE SEQUENCE OF NUCLEOTIDES THAT FORMS THE COMPLEMENT TO THIS SECTION OF DNA? |
T-A-A-C-G-G |
