Question
Answer
what are the 4 DNA nucleotides   A, C, T, G  
🗑
which nucleotides pair together?   A pairs with T, C pairs with G  
🗑
What is the DNA backbone made of?   made of sugar and phosphate groups. nucleotides join togheter with hydrogen bonds.  
🗑
DNA is replicated when?   S-phase  
🗑
What is the model of DNA replication?   is Semi-Conservative model.  
🗑
What is the rate of replication in eukaryotic cells?   50 nt/s  
🗑
What enezyme adds nucleotides to replicaing DNA   DNA ploymerase performs several functions including adding nucleotides to replicating DNA  
🗑
How big is the human genome   3.9 billion nucletides (bases)  
🗑
Transcription occurs where   nucleus  
🗑
Transcription is what   the transfer of information from DNA to mRNA, mRNA then leaves the nuclear pore and is revieved by ribosome  
🗑
function of mRna   ribosomes translates mRNA into a string of amino acid monomers called polypeptide chain  
🗑
what is tRNA   resp. for bringing the correct amino acids to the ribosome as written codons on the mRNA  
🗑
What is a codon?   3 nucletide word that translated in the ribosome into amino acid  
🗑
What is a base (nucleotide) insertion/ deletion?   a base insertion/ deletion is the addition or subtraction of a nucleotide  
🗑
What is a base subsitution?   is change of a single nucleotide  
🗑
What are the results of these mutations?   mutation could be beneficial, neutral or negative. If codon translates into the same amino acid then there is no effect.  
🗑
What type of mutation causes sickle cell?   a base subsitution  
🗑
Somatic cell nucleur trasnfer   Diploid nuclues is removed from somatic cell and transferred into eff in which eggs haploid necleus was removed.  
🗑
Terapeutic cloning   used to create specific lines of cells that may ultimately be used for tissues or oragans  
🗑
Reproductive cloning leads to   offspring  
🗑
What most likely caused Dolly to die prematurely   DNA contained within the somatic cell nucleus was used in cloning process likely carried a lot of mutations.  
🗑
Signal Trasduction Pathway   gp. of cellular components and chemicals that participate in the transmission of info.  
🗑
Signal Trasduction exp.   substate binding to a receptor embedded on the plasma membrane of the cell.  
🗑
What are proto-oncogenes   is a gene necessary for normal cell activity that, when mutated, leads to oncogene  
🗑
What is an oncogene   gene that could lead to the growth of a tumor  
🗑
ex. of proto oncogene?   ras, which codes for a relaty protein in a signal transdution pathway  
🗑
Tumor suppressor?   inhibits cellular proliferation.  
🗑
The location of a gene on a chromosome is referred to as a   loci  
🗑
which of the following is a lethal dominant disorder with symptons that dont appear till middle age?   Huntington's disease  
🗑
What % of females eggs carry an x chromosome?   100%  
🗑
when a single gene affects many phenotypic characteristics, this is referred to as?   pleiotropy  
🗑
for a sex-linked recessive disorder, if a mother is carrier and the father is normal, what is the probablity that they will have a son with the recessive disease?   25%  
🗑
which of the following is a sex-linked disorder   hemophilia  
🗑
Many clonded animales are sub. to disease and pre mature aging because the donor nucleus probably already has suffered damage to the DNA   true  
🗑
Once a donor nucleus has been implanted into an eff, the egg is subjected to an electrical shock to stimulate cellular division   true  
🗑
adult stem cells from bone marrow can differentiate into any type of somaic cell   false  
🗑
which of the following is a vector used in human gene therapy   virus  
🗑
once a plasmid has been removed from bacteria, what would you use to cut it open   restriction enzyme  
🗑
once a plasmic has been cut open, what wouldbe used to glue a gene of intrest in?   ligase  
🗑
what technique is used to sep. DNA into visable bands?   gel electrophorsis  
🗑
in PCR, in which step does DNA sep into 2 stands   denature  
🗑
the human gene is apox. how big   2.9 billion  
🗑
All DNA in human genome is packaged as genes   false  
🗑
DNA is post. charge   false  
🗑
which of the following is a random evolutionary process   genetic drift  
🗑
darwin was the first person to pose idea of evolution   false  
🗑
which one of the following provides the raw material for evolution to occur   mutations  
🗑
which process can restore genetic variation into population   gene flow  
🗑
when a large population is drastically reduced to a small population due to some catastrophic event, this is referred to as   bottlenecking  
🗑
in fixed species theory, all organisms radiated outward from a single common ancestor   false  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
