Questão 9
Questão
DNA is a double helix (a double stranded spiral). Each of the two DNA strands are made up of what?
Responda
-
Proteins.
-
Cricks.
-
Nucleotides.
Questão 10
Questão
Nucleotides contain a small molecule called a "base". How many bases are there and what are they called?
Questão 11
Questão
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?
Responda

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.

Darwin and Lamarck.
-
Watson and Crick.

Questão 14
Questão
What does DNA do every time a cell divides?
Questão 15
Questão
What do new nucleotides do during this process?
Questão 16
Questão
Which is correct?
Questão 17
Questão
What does DNA control the production of?
Questão 18
Questão
A section of DNA that codes for a particular proteins is called a...
Questão 19
Questão
Proteins are made up of chains of molecules called what?
Responda
-
Cells.
-
Chloroplasts.
-
Amino Acids.
Questão 20
Questão
Each different protein has its own particular number and order of amino acids.
Questão 21
Questão
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?
Questão 22
Questão
How many bases is an amino acid coded by?
Responda
-
4. (Quad)
-
2. (Pair)
-
3. (Triple)
Questão 23
Questão
The amino acids are joined together to make proteins, following how many bases there are in a gene.
Questão 24
Questão
So, why does each gene contain a different sequence of bases?
Questão 25
Questão
What carries the code to the Ribosomes?
Questão 26
Questão
Where are the ribosomes?
Responda
-
The Nucleus.
-
The Cytoplasm.
-
The Mitochondria.
Questão 27
Questão
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...
Responda
-
DNA is really big.
-
The DNA will get lost.
-
DNA is really small.
Questão 28
Questão
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?
Questão 29
Questão
DNA controls a cell by...
Questão 30
Questão
Different types of cell have different functions because they make different proteins.
Questão 31

In a muscle cell, which genes are switched on and which are switched off?
Responda
-
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.
