Macromolecules
I provide long-term energy storage.
What organelle is responsible for converting radiant energy into chemical energy?
What is the chloroplast?
This type of ASEXUAL cell division is responsible for an organism's repair and growth.
Mitosis
What is the full name of the cell structure that stores genetic information?
If B = Brown and b= blue for eye color an autosomal trait. Write the genotype of a heterozygous brown-eyed male.
What is Bb?
What is the monomer of Protein?
What is Amino Acids.
the mitochondria is responsible for this cellular process.
What is cellular respiration?
This type of cell division involves crossing over, which helps create genetically unique daughter cells.
Write the complementary DNA strand for the following:
AGC CGT GGA
TCG GCA CCT
A male with type AB blood has offspring with a female that is heterozygous Type B blood. What are the possible genotypes of their offspring?
25% IAIB
25% IBIB
25% IBIi
25% IAIi
An organic molecule MUST contain what element?
What is Carbon.
Which cycle are photosynthesis and cellular respiration the driving factors behind?
What is the Carbon Cycle?
During which phase do cells spend most of their time in the cell cycle?
What is Interphase?
Transcribe the following:
GGT ACG TGA
CCA UGC ACU
Cows can either be red, white, or roan. Roan cows are heterozygous (Rr) and have red and white patches. What type of inheritance is cow coat color?
What is Codominant?
What are the Three functions of protein?
1. Speed of chemical reactions (enzymes)
2. Structure and support (muscles)
3. Protection (antibodies)
Animals can generate energy through anaerobic respiration when oxygen is not available. Why do animals NOT use this form of energy production more often?
1. Inefficient only producing 2 ATP.
2. Produces Lactic Acid (which hurts the cell).
Draw a picture of each stage of the cell cycle, be sure to include the name. (100 bonus points for the team that will perform the mitosis hand jive!)
Picture on board.
Translate the following:
AUG CUU GAG UAG
Met-lue-glu-stop
Hemophilia is an x-linked recessive trait. If a woman with hemophilia marries a normal man. What are the chances that her sons will have hemophilia?
100%
How do enzymes increase the rate of a reaction? (you may use a picture to explain)
By lowering the activation energy.
C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6H2O + 6CO2 + 38 ATP
Identify when DNA replication occurs, and explain why cells must make a copy of their DNA BEFORE going through cell division.
Interphase (S-Phase)- Each cell needs a complete copy of the DNA when cell division is complete. If cells did not duplicate their DNA, each daughter cell would only contain half the original amount of DNA.
What are the three types of RNA, and what are their roles in protein synthesis?
rRNA- Ribosomal- makes up the ribosome.
tRNA- Transfer- transfers amino acid to the ribosome.
Draw a pedigree for the following individuals, identifying their genotype and phenotype. Cystic Fibrosis is autosomal recessive.
A man with cystic fibrosis has 3 children with a normal woman. The couple has 2 normal boys and a girl with cystic fibrosis.
Picture on the board.
