BIO TAG - Ecology, DNA and DNA Experiments Quiz

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Question
Answer
show viruses. actually seen with a microscope in 1942  
🗑
show characteristics passed on to next generation by DNA  
🗑
Who was Frederick Griffith? What did he do? Why important?   show
🗑
show Knew chromosomes consisted of DNA and proteins. Knew proteins had 20 types of building blocks (amino acids) and DNA 4 building blocks (nucleotides). Thought proteins were TRANSFORMING factor. WRONG about that.  
🗑
show 1952. American. Radioactively tagged the DNA and the protein. Found the DNA was the genetic material.  
🗑
show Viruses. "Bacteria- eaters" The fact that they inject just DNA into the target bacteria is DNA was the genetic heredity material.  
🗑
Write the parts of Hershey and Chases's experiment   show
🗑
Give brief conclusion of what you have gathered in reading of DNA experiments.   show
🗑
What kinds of bonds does DNA make?   show
🗑
show ability to store genetic information, copy it, pass it from generation to generation  
🗑
show N, C, H, O, P atoms. In molecules: phosphate group, deoxyribose sugar and nitrogenous bases A, G, T, C.  
🗑
What is RNA made of?   show
🗑
show a monomer of nucleic acid made up of a 5-carbon sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base.  
🗑
show nucleotide  
🗑
show polynucleotide  
🗑
What are the 4 nitrogenous bases?   show
🗑
What are purines/pyrimidines?   show
🗑
show nitrogenous base, phosphate group and a 5-carbon sugar  
🗑
Sketch nucleotides and label.   show
🗑
show double helix.  
🗑
show It is a repeating pattern of sugar, phosphate, sugar, phosphate. The nitrogenous bases are arranged as appendages along this backbone.  
🗑
show phosphorous atom in its center. It is the source of the acid in 'nucleic acid.'  
🗑
Describe the sugar   show
🗑
show deoxyribonucleic acid . because nucleic comes from location of DNA in a eukaryotic cell. deoxyribose is the name of the sugar. It has an acidic phosphate group, that is why it is called an acid.  
🗑
show sugar is Ribose instead of deoxyribose. Instead of T it has U. single not double helix  
🗑
show proteins are called HISTONES. The histones combine with the DNA top coil the material tightly to form CROMATIN.  
🗑
show Crick and Watson (based on seeing Rosalind Franklin and Maurice Wilkins X-Ray diffraction pictures )  
🗑
What is the familiar term they used   show
🗑
Describe the model they came up with and its role in the discovery?   show
🗑
What did Chargaff discover? What is Chargaff's rule?   show
🗑
Sketch an untwisted double-stranded DNA and label the parts and bonds.   show
🗑
What is the sequence of nucleotides? Does that limit the length of the DNA strand?   show
🗑
With a complete picture of DNA, we can see the genetic information in a chromosome must be encoded in the___________   show
🗑
define genotype   show
🗑
show the TRAITS. Example, one flower purple, one flower blue.  
🗑
How does a genotype use protein molecules to express a phenotype? Describe the steps.   show
🗑
show the transfer of genetic information from DNA into an RNA molecule  
🗑
Define translation. When and how does translation occur?   show
🗑
What were Garrod's ideas? Were they important?   show
🗑
What does the phrase 'one gene-one polypeptide' mean? (The work of Beadle and Tatum   show
🗑
What is the monomer of DNA and RNA?   show
🗑
The sequence of nucleotides of the RNA molecule dictates the ______________   show
🗑
How is RNA a messenger?   show
🗑
show triplets of bases are the smallest 'word' that specifies an amino acid. " AAT in RNA could specify amino acid  
🗑
show There are 64 possible triplets. They code only 20 amino acids. This means more than one triplet can code the same amino acid. Example both AAT and AAC both code the same amino acid.  
🗑
What is a codon   show
🗑
Describe the process from DNA strand to polypeptide   show
🗑
show deoxyribose, phosphate, nitrogen base  
🗑
show nitrogen base  
🗑
List the four different kinds of nitrogen bases, spell out, do not abbreviate.   show
🗑
Explain WHERE the nucleotide molecules connect (bond to each other. Be specific. there are TWO locations where nucleotides connect.   show
🗑
show Adenine pairs with Thymine and Guanine pairs with Cytosine.  
🗑
show Yes. because Adenine pairs with Thymine.  
🗑
Are there always going to be an EQUAL number of guanine and cytosine molecules in a molecule of DNA?   show
🗑
The sides of the DNA ladder are made up of alternating ______ and ______ to form the backbone   show
🗑
The two components of adjacent nucleotides bond in the process of __________ ___________ therefore a __________ bond exists between each nucleotide in the backbone of DNA   show
🗑
In the process of dehydration synthesis, what type of bond forms: ionic, covalent or hydrogen?   show
🗑
The steps or rungs of the ladder of DNA are made of ____ ________ held together by hydrogen bonds   show
🗑
show Our DNA differs in the sequence of the nitrogen bases. We each have A, T, G, C but the sequence varies.  
🗑


   

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.
