5' to 3' New nucleotides are added to the 3' end of a growing polynucleotide.

Given a template strand of 3'-ATGCTTGGACA-5' and a partially-made complementary strand containing only 5'-TAC-3', what would be the sequence of the new strand of DNA (including the 5'-TAC-3') if the only additional nucleotides available to DNA polymerase were those containing the bases G, A, and C?

5'-TACGAACC-3' DNA polymerase will continue to add nucleotides onto the growing strand as long as it has nucleotides with the bases required to complement the template strand. If it is missing one kind of base, it will stop at that point on the strand.

How many unique gametes could be produced through independent assortment by an individual with the genotype AaBbCCDdEE?

Duplication of chromosomes occurs during S phase of the cell cycle. Duplication requires the separation of complementary DNA strands to allow for DNA replication. Which of the following statements best explains how weak hydrogen bonds function better in this situation than stronger bonds would?

Complementary DNA strands are separated or "unzipped" for the replication process. Weak hydrogen bonds between complementary strands are easily disrupted during DNA replication because they are not high-energy chemical bonds.

Nearly every mRNA gene that codes for a protein begins with the start codon, _____, and thus begins with a methionine. Nearly every protein-coding sequence ends with one of the three stop codons (UAA, UAG, and UGA), which do not code for amino acids but signal the end of translation.

AUG

A black guinea pig crossed with a guinea pig with albinism produced 12 black offspring. When the albino was crossed with a second black animal, six blacks and six albinos were obtained. What is the best explanation for this genetic situation?

Albinism is a recessive trait; black is a dominant trait.

Now, suppose that the three tomato genes from Part A did not assort independently, but instead were linked to one another on the same chromosome. Would you expect the phenotypic ratio in the offspring to change? If so, how?

All eight possible phenotypes could occur, but a greater proportion of the offspring would have the parental phenotypes. Because all three genes are linked, it is more likely that the parental allele combinations would stay together rather than be recombined through a crossover event. That is why a greater proportion of the offspring would have parental phenotypes. Nevertheless, some crossing over would likely occur, which is why a small proportion of the offspring would have recombinant phenotypes.

For any given gene, what ultimately determines which DNA strand serves as the template strand?

D) the base sequence of the gene's promoter

Law that states that allele pairs segregate equally into gametes during meiosis. This means that a gamete will have only one allele of any given gene, and that the probability of a gamete having one allele or the other is equal (and therefore ½, or 50%, for either allele).

What materials does DNA polymerase require in order to synthesize a complete strand of DNA?

-All four deoxyribonucleotides triphosphates (containing A, C, T, or G) -Single-stranded DNA template -3'-OH end of the new DNA strand

Suppose that a portion of double-stranded DNA in the middle of a large gene is being transcribed by an RNA polymerase. As the polymerase moves through the sequence of six bases shown in the diagram below, what is the corresponding sequence of bases in the RNA that is produced? Diagram of DNA showing a coding strand and a template strand. Coding strand from 3' to 5' reads C C G A G T. Template strand from 5' to 3' reads G G C T C A. Enter the sequence of bases as capital letters with no spaces and no punctuation. Begin with the first base added to the growing RNA strand, and end with the last base added.

-UGAGCC There are three principles to keep in mind when predicting the sequence of the mRNA produced by transcription of a particular DNA sequence. The RNA polymerase reads the sequence of DNA bases from only one of the two strands of DNA: the template strand. The RNA polymerase reads the code from the template strand in the 3' to 5' direction and thus produces the mRNA strand in the 5' to 3' direction. In RNA, the base uracil (U) replaces the DNA base thymine (T). Thus the base-pairing rules in transcription are A→U, T→A, C→G, and G→C, where the first base is the coding base in the template strand of the DNA and the second base is the base that is added to the growing mRNA strand.

Helicase

-binds at the replication fork -breaks H-bonds between bases

-breaks covalent bonds in DNA backbone -binds ahead of the replication fork

Mechanisms that contribute to genetic variation include

-errors (mutations) that occur during DNA replication -the production of recombinant chromosomes due to crossing over -the independent assortment of homologous chromosomes in meiosis I -the separation of sister chromatids (which are no longer identical due to crossing over) in meiosis II -the random fusion of male and female gametes during fertilization

Use the figure to answer the question below. A diagram shows the amount of DNA in the nucleus increasing from bottom to top. From left to right, the diagram is divided into first cycle and second cycle. Each cycle is divided into three approximately equal columns and one much narrower section. A graph line runs across the sections, starting halfway up the column. It runs horizontally across the first column and is labeled I. It then rises to the top of the column; that line segment is labeled II. In the third column, labeled III, the line runs horizontally at the top of the column. In the narrow column, labeled IV, the line drops sharply back to its initial level. The line then runs horizontally through the first section of the second cycle, labeled V. The cycle continues to repeat itself. In the figure, G1 is represented by which numbered part(s) of the cycle?

In rabbits and many other mammals, one genotype (ee) prevents any fur color from developing.

Life as we know it depends on the genetic code: a set of codons, each made up of three bases in a DNA sequence and corresponding mRNA sequence, that specifies which of the 20 amino acids will be added to the protein during translation. Imagine that a prokaryote-like organism has been discovered in the polar ice on Mars. Interestingly, these Martian organisms use the same DNA → RNA → protein system as life on Earth, except that there are only 2 bases (A and T) in the Martian DNA, and there are only 17 amino acids found in Martian proteins

In the most general case of x bases and y bases per codon, the total number of possible codons is equal to xy . In the case of the hypothetical Martian life-forms, is the minimum codon length needed to specify 17 amino acids is 5 (25 = 32), with some redundancy (meaning that more than one codon could code for the same amino acid). For life on Earth, x = 4 and y = 3; thus the number of codons is 43, or 64. Because there are only 20 amino acids, there is a lot of redundancy in the code (there are several codons for each amino acid).

Think about the DNA coding sequence of a gene. If an A were swapped for a T, what kind of mutation could it cause and why?

It could cause a silent, missense, or nonsense mutation because those are the types that can be caused by a nucleotide-pair substitution like this one.

During translation, nucleotide base triplets (codons) in mRNA are read in sequence in the 5' → 3' direction along the mRNA. Amino acids are specified by the string of codons. What amino acid sequence does the following mRNA nucleotide sequence specify? 5′−AUGGCAAGAAAA−3′ Express the sequence of amino acids using the three-letter abbreviations, separated by hyphens (e.g., Met-Ser-Thr-Lys-Gly).

Met-Ala-Arg-Lys An amino acid sequence is determined by strings of three-letter codons on the mRNA, each of which codes for a specific amino acid or a stop signal. The mRNA is translated in a 5' → 3' direction.

What amino acid sequence does the following DNA nucleotide sequence specify? 3′−TACAGAACGGTA−5′ Express the sequence of amino acids using the three-letter abbreviations, separated by hyphens (e.g., Met-Ser-His-Lys-Gly).

Met-Ser-Cys-His Before mRNA can be translated into an amino acid sequence, the mRNA must first be synthesized from DNA through transcription. Base pairing in mRNA synthesis follows slightly different rules than in DNA synthesis: uracil (U) replaces thymine (T) in pairing with adenine (A). The codons specified by the mRNA are then translated into a string of amino acids.

One of two major forms of a human condition called neurofibromatosis (NF 1) is inherited as a dominant gene, although it may range from mildly to very severely expressed. Which of the following is the best explanation for why a young, affected child is the first in her family to be diagnosed?

How does natural selection apply to sexual reproduction as opposed to asexual reproduction?

Sexual reproduction results in many new gene combinations, some of which will lead to differential reproduction

DNA is transcribed to messenger RNA (mRNA), and the mRNA is translated to proteins on the ribosomes. A sequence of three nucleotides on an mRNA molecule is called a codon. As you can see in the table, most codons specify a particular amino acid to be added to the growing protein chain. In addition, one codon (shown in blue) codes for the amino acid methionine and functions as a "start" signal. Three codons (shown in red) do not code for amino acids, but instead function as "stop" signals. Sort the following ten codons into one of the three bins, according to whether they code for a start codon, an in-sequence amino acid, or a stop codon AUG, UAG, UAA, UGA, AAA, UGC, AUC, CAC, GCA, ACU

Start/Methionine AUG Stop codon UAG, UAA, UGA Amino acid AAA, UGC, AUC, CAC, GCA, ACU

Synthesis of the lagging strand is accomplished through the repetition of the following steps

Step 1: A new fragment begins with DNA polymerase III binding to the 3' end of the most recently produced RNA primer, primer B in this case, which is closest to the replication fork. DNA pol III then adds DNA nucleotides in the 5' to 3' direction until it encounters the previous RNA primer, primer A. Step 2: DNA pol III falls off and is replaced by DNA pol I. Starting at the 5' end of primer A, DNA pol I removes each RNA nucleotide and replaces it with the corresponding DNA nucleotide. (DNA pol I adds the nucleotides to the 3' end of fragment B.) When it encounters the 5' end of fragment A, DNA pol I falls off, leaving a gap in the sugar-phosphate backbone between fragments A and B. Step 3: DNA ligase closes the gap between fragments A and B.
