Pregunta 9
Pregunta
DNA is a double helix (a double stranded spiral). Each of the two DNA strands are made up of what?
Respuesta
-
Proteins.
-
Cricks.
-
Nucleotides.
Pregunta 10
Pregunta
Nucleotides contain a small molecule called a "base". How many bases are there and what are they called?
Pregunta 11
Pregunta
Each base forms cross links to a base on the other strand. This keeps the two DNA strands tightly wound together. But which base pairs, pair with each other?
Respuesta
-
A pairs with G, and T pairs with C.
-
A pairs with T and C pairs with G.
-
T pairs with G and A pairs with C.
Pregunta 12

Pregunta 14
Pregunta
What does DNA do every time a cell divides?
Pregunta 15
Pregunta
What do new nucleotides do during this process?
Pregunta 16
Pregunta
Which is correct?
Pregunta 17
Pregunta
What does DNA control the production of?
Pregunta 18
Pregunta
A section of DNA that codes for a particular proteins is called a...
Pregunta 19
Pregunta
Proteins are made up of chains of molecules called what?
Respuesta
-
Cells.
-
Chloroplasts.
-
Amino Acids.
Pregunta 20
Pregunta
Each different protein has its own particular number and order of amino acids.
Pregunta 21
Pregunta
If each protein has its own particular number and order of amino acids, does this give the proteins a different shape or a different function?
Pregunta 22
Pregunta
How many bases is an amino acid coded by?
Respuesta
-
4. (Quad)
-
2. (Pair)
-
3. (Triple)
Pregunta 23
Pregunta
The amino acids are joined together to make proteins, following how many bases there are in a gene.
Pregunta 24
Pregunta
So, why does each gene contain a different sequence of bases?
Pregunta 25
Pregunta
What carries the code to the Ribosomes?
Pregunta 26
Pregunta
Where are the ribosomes?
Respuesta
-
The Nucleus.
-
The Cytoplasm.
-
The Mitochondria.
Pregunta 27
Pregunta
To make proteins, ribosomes use the code in the DNA. DNA is found in the cell nucleus an can't move out of it because...
Respuesta
-
DNA is really big.
-
The DNA will get lost.
-
DNA is really small.
Pregunta 28
Pregunta
If the DNA can't leave the cell then another molecule is needed to get the code from the DNA to the Ribosome. This is called mRNA. How is it used?
Pregunta 29
Pregunta
DNA controls a cell by...
Pregunta 30
Pregunta
Different types of cell have different functions because they make different proteins.
Pregunta 31
Pregunta
Why do some genes switched off?
Pregunta 32
Pregunta
In a muscle cell, which genes are switched on and which are switched off?
Respuesta
-
Bone, nerve and skin cells are switched on and muscle cells are off, to conserve energy.
-
Or are muscle cells switched on and bone, nerve and skin cells are switched off.
