Golden Oldies
These code for different amino acid sequences, which can lead to differences in protein structure and function.
What are alleles?
Sister chromatids are only present because of this process.
What is DNA replication?
DNA is read from 3' to 5', so RNA can be built in this way.
Hint: what ends?
What is 5' to 3'?
They recycle damaged cell parts in a cell
What are lysosomes?
Crossing over happens at this (1) phase of this (2) process.
What is prophase 1 of meiosis?
DNA --> RNA --> Protein describes this flow.
What is the central dogma?
They decode a RNA sequence to build an amino acid chain
What are ribosomes?
These allow for genetic diversity.
Two answers
What is crossing over? What is independent assortment?
This number of base codons result in one amino acid.
What are 3 codons?
A red blood cell placed in pure water bursts because of the difference in solute concentrations between the cell and the water. The red blood cell was in this type of solution (regarding the solute).
Hypotonic
A homozygous red snapdragon flower is crossed with a homozygous white snapdragon flower to get pink snapdragon flowers because of this type of inheritance.
What is incomplete dominance?
The start codon
What is AUG (or Met)?
Two parts:
The DNA double helix wraps around these (1) proteins to form this (2) noodle-like structures.
1. What are histones?
2. What are chromatin fibers?
The mom is a carrier of color blindness. The father is not color blind nor a carrier. The probability of their son having the disease is 50% because of this type of inheritance.
Hint: gender matters
What is X-linked recessive?
RNA polymerase in transcription moves down the DNA strand to form a RNA strand that is complimentary to this DNA strand.
What is the template strand?
