Structure
These are the subunits of DNA.
What are nucleotides?
Rosalind Franklin produced this image called?
What is Photo 51?
I protect the ends of chromosomes.
What is a telomere?
Genes have to be passed from one generation to the next; a living organism needs to produce more cells; a living organism needs to grow and develop...
What are some reasons that DNA needs to replicate or be copied?
Hey - I'm quite interesting right now because of my abilities to lengthen a telomere.
What is the telomerase?
This is the sugar within DNA.
What is deoxyribose?
Watson and Crick's model demonstrated that the shape of DNA is called a?
What is a double helix?
The DNA wraps/coils around proteins called?
What are histones?
Prokaryotic replication is different from eukaryotic because the:
What is prokaryotic DNA has to be copied all at once from one replication fork?
The purpose of mashing and adding the extraction buffer to the strawberries was important because...
What is to break open the cell wall and cell membranes to access the DNA?
The nitrogenous bases are held together with these bonds.
What are hydrogen bonds?
This technology revealed the interior structure of the molecule.
What is X-ray Diffraction?
The extracted DNA from the strawberry was insoluble in this liquid?
What was ethanol?
I am an enzyme and do a great job "unzipping".
What is helicase?
The sugar and phosphate in DNA are held together with these bonds.
What are covalent bonds?
Antiparallel arrangement of the DNA molecule means what exactly?
What is the strands run in opposite directions?
The Chargaff Rules state these two principles.
1). The % of A = T and G = C.
2). Across all organisms these bases will be in equivalent percentages.
I was used as an important tool to support that DNA was the genetic material in the Hershey-Chase experiment?
What are a Bacteriophage and radioactive isotopes?
I have mad skills. Before cells divide I have to make copies of all of your DNA by making two new strands from your parent strand. Oh - and then I proofread it with incredible accuracy.
What is DNA polymerase?
This is a picture of all of the chromosomes in an organism.
What is a karyotype?
A strand of DNA has a sequence of GGTCTAAC, what is the sequence of the complementary strand?
What is CCAGATTG?
We were awarded the Nobel Prize for the Structure of DNA? Name the scientists and the year.
Who are Watson, Crick, Wilkins in 1962?
This occurs when genetic information is transferred from one bacterial generation/strain to the next and name a scientist who was able to experiment with this process.
What is bacterial transformation and either Griffith or Avery?
DNA replicates during this phase of the cell cycle.
What is the S phase?
DNA to RNA to Protein to Trait
What is the central dogma of cellular biology?
