Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a viral infection that is transmitted mainly through skin-to-skin contact. Following transmission, HPV enters host cells and integrates into the host genome, eventually causing the cells to synthesize the viral protein E6. In turn, E6 inactivates the host protein p53, a tumor suppressor that arrests the cell cycle or induces apoptosis (programmed cell death) when DNA damage is detected. Which of the following claims is best supported by the information above?I. HPV increases the synthesis of tumor suppressor proteins in infected cells.II. HPV results into inactivation of tumor suppressor protein.III. HPV causes infected cells to exit the cell cycle.IV. HPV causes uncontrolled cell division in infected cells.

If an individual receives a 23andMe report that says that they have the BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations, what does that mean?

It is converted to heat.

If cellular respiration were 100% efficient, the process would produce around 80 ATP; however, the actual yield is around 30 ATP. What happens to the rest of the chemical energy in glucose?

It depends on how the condition is inherited (dominant V. recessive) and the genotype of your other parent. You should talk to your doctor or a genetic counselor to find out your risk.

If one of your parents is at risk for a genetic health condition, what is your risk of having the same condition?

All of the Above

If yeast can metabolize sugar like glucose aerobically to produce carbon dioxide, then why don't we do the fermentation experiment aerobically?

It will give rise to carbon dioxide bubbles in the fermentation tube.

If yeast is able to use a provided carbon source during a fermentation experiment, what will occur?

False

If your grandmother had breast cancer, you must inherit the related cancer gene from her.

Fermentation occurred in dough, liberating carbon dioxide that makes the dough soft and aerated. This is indicated by the piece of dough fluctuating in the water.

In certain cultures, in the preparation of bread with yeast, a piece of raw dough is put in a glass with water before the bread goes in the oven. While the little piece of dough sits in the bottom of the glass, the bread is incubated with steam. When the piece of dough starts fluctuating, that is a signal that the dough has grown and is aerated enough, and therefore, ready to go to the oven. This process helps to guarantee that the bread will be aerated and soft. Based on this information, what made the dough in the water fluctuate?

What might you theorize about the location of the abnormal gene? I. It could be on the X chromosome. II. It could be on the Y chromosome. III. It is transmitted from father to sons. IV.

Stanley (your friend from the Fermentation Case Study) wrote up the methods of his fermentation experiment. Use this portion of his methods section to answer the following questions (each sentence has been numbered for clarity): (I) To determine the effects of sugar source on production of CO2 during fermentation, three fruit juices were used as experimental treatments. (II) First, all materials (juice, table sugar, water, yeast, test tubes, fermentation tubes, labeling tape, sharpie) were organized on the lab bench. (III) Because different sugar sources contain different concentrations of sugar, the amount of each treatment needed to total one gram of sugar was calculated using the nutritional information from each label. (IV) Each treatment (10 mL apple juice, 11 mL orange juice, and 6.7 mL grape juice, 1 gram sucrose) was added to a separate test tube, and the final volume was brought to 20 mL with distilled water. (V) Five mL of yeast suspension was added to the sucrose tubes, water tubes, grape juice tubes, orange juice tubes, and apple juice tubes. (VI) The solutions were transferred to fermentation tubes, which were then placed into their respective test tubes such that no air bubbles were inside the fermentation tubes. (VII) All tubes were incubated at 42ºC for one hour. What information is missing from his methods section?
