Respuesta
-
Hydrogen bonds
-
Condensation Reaction between phosphate group of one nucleotide and deoxyribose of another.
-
Polar attraction
Pregunta 7
Pregunta
Which base does cytosine pair with?
Respuesta
-
adenine
-
thymine
-
guanine
Pregunta 8
Pregunta
What base does thymine pair with?
Respuesta
-
adenine?
-
guanine?
-
cytosine?
Pregunta 9
Pregunta
The organic bases form the structural backbone of DNA
Respuesta
- True
- False
Pregunta 10
Pregunta
What is the function of DNA?
Respuesta
-
To pass genetic information from cell to cell and generation to generation.
-
To provide energy for the cell.
-
To make organic bases.
Pregunta 11
Pregunta
How is the DNA molecule adapted to carry out its functions? (4 points)
Respuesta
-
It is very stable and can pass from generation to generation without changing.
-
It is flexible so can be easily changed.
-
It's two strands are only joined with H bonds which allow them to separate for DNA replication.
-
The two strands are joined with H bonds that are strong and prevent the strands from separating.
-
The molecule is extremely large so carries an immense amount of genetic information.
-
The structural backbone protects the genetic information from corruption.
-
The molecule is very small so lots of them can fit in a small space.
Pregunta 12
Pregunta
What is a gene?
Respuesta
-
A sequence of DNA bases that determines a polypeptide (a sequence of amino acids).
-
A molecule that contains all the genetic information of a cell.
-
A substance made up of DNA
Pregunta 13
Pregunta
What are introns?
Respuesta
-
Sections of DNA that don't code for amino acids.
-
Amino acids.
-
Three bases that code for an amino acid.
Pregunta 14
Pregunta
The triplet code can be read in either direction of the DNA strand
Respuesta
- True
- False
Pregunta 15
Pregunta
The start of a sequence of the triplet code is always the same: the amino acid 'methionine'.
Respuesta
- True
- False
Pregunta 16
Pregunta
Stop codes are triplet codes that don't code for an amino acid, but the end of a polypeptide chain.
Respuesta
- True
- False
Pregunta 17
Pregunta
The triplet code is only specific to humans.
Respuesta
- True
- False
Pregunta 18
Pregunta
Prokaryotic cells don't have chromosomes as their DNA molecules are smaller and not associated with protein molecules
Respuesta
- True

What are different forms of a gene called?
Respuesta
-
alleles
-
chromosomes
-
haploid cells
