100
The complementary sequence of this DNA molecule:
What is CGCATG?
100
The two steps in building a protein.
What are transcription (Step A) and translation (Step B)?
100
This number of nucleotides makes a codon.
What is three?
100
The probability of seeing a recessive trait when two heterozygotes mate.
What is 25%?
100
The type of mutation shown.
What is a substitution mutation?
200
The two complementary base pairs of DNA.
What is A pairs with T and C pairs with G?
OR
What adenine pairs with thymine and cytosine pairs with guanine?
200
Identify the cellular locations.
What are
Location 1 - nucleus
Location 2 - cytoplasm
Location 3 - ribosome
?
200
The two codons that code for Leu.
What are UUA and UUG?
200
The types of dominance shown.
What are
Type A - incomplete dominance
Type B - codominance
?
200
This type of mutation has no effect on the protein because it codes for the same amino acid as the original sequence.
What is a silent mutation?
300
Structure 2.
What is a nucleotide?
300
Sections of DNA that code for proteins.
What are genes?
300
The process shown here.
What is transcription?
300
This is the genotype of Individual 1. Use the pedigree shown:
What is Aa (heterozygous)?
300
Cells are shown in meiosis. Which cell could result in a trisomy?
What is Cell B?
400
These bonds hold together base pairs. Labeled here as X.
What are hydrogen bonds?
400
In RNA, this base replaces thymine.
What is uracil?
OR
What is U?
400
Proteins are made from these building blocks.
What are amino acids?
400
If a disease is caused by a dominant allele, this is the probability that a child will inherit the disease if one parent is homozygous dominant and the other is homozygous recessive.
What is a 100% chance?
400
Because this type of mutation changes the reading frame of a gene, it is usually detrimental to the final protein product.
What is a frameshift mutation?
500
The two components that makeup the backbone of the DNA double helix. Outlined here in red.
What are sugars and phosphates?
500
The amino acids coded for by this DNA sequence: TCA TGC
What is Ser - Thr ?
How did you get that?
First transcribe DNA to mRNA = AGU ACG
Then, use the codon chart
AGU = Ser
ACG = Thr
500
Structures A, B and C.
What are tRNA, ribosome, mRNA?
500
Color blindness is an X-linked recessive trait. This is the probability that a female will be colorblind if the mom is a carrier for color blindness and the dad has normal vision.
What is a 0% chance?
500
These two words describe the mutation shown.
One word is for the gene change, one word is for the amino acid change.
What are substitution mutation AND nonsense mutation?
