What do we call the duplication of chromosomes?
100
Uracil instead of thymine
What is one difference between DNA and RNA
100
point, sustitution, insertion, deletion
What are different types of mutations?
100
Semi-logarithmic
What is the scale used for the vertical axis of a standard curve?
200
helical, or twisted ladder
What is the shape of DNA?
200
In the nucleus
Where does replication occur?
200
Single rung of ladder vs double
What is RNA vs DNA?
200
naturally occuring, radiation, UV light, certain chemicals
What sorts of things cause mutations?
200
Distance (mm) and Fragment Size (base pairs)
What are the two variables used when graphing a standard curve?
300
It proceeds in opposite directions
What is the formation of new DNA strands?
300

300
The shortest fragments
What move the fastest in the agar gel?
400
In the nucleus

400
During S phase
When does replication occur?
400
Translation
What is the assembling of proteins from information carried on the RNA called?
400
So that we can interpolate the length of an unknown DNA fragment
What is the reason for creating a standard curve?
500
They unwind, or break apart DNA and then "read" the DNA template and attach the correct base.
What are the enzymes in the nucleus?
500
It occurs in cells all the time
What is transcription and translation?
500
mRNA (function)

500
bacteriophage lambda
