This type of carbohydrate is made by autotrophs, like plants, for long term energy storage

• glycogen

• cellulose

• starch

This carbohydrate is used for when extra glucose is needed quickly in animals. It's also stored in muscles and our liver

A mutation is any change in a DNA sequence. Of the following mutation events, which one would have the most significant effect on the resulting polypeptide?

• A nucleotide & its complementary base are replaced, resulting in a new amino acid in translation.

• A nucleotide pair is added into a gene near its terminal end, altering the reading frame of the genetic message.

• A nucleotide pair substitution occurs, which results in the introduction of a "stop" codon.

• A nucleotide is altered that results in no change in the amino acid sequence due to redundancy.

What is the basis for the difference in how the leading and lagging strands of DNA molecules are synthesized?

• The origins of replication occur only at the 5' end.

• Helicases and DNA polymerase work at the 5' end.

• DNA polymerase can join new nucleotides only to the 3' end of a growing strand.

• DNA ligase works only in the 3' --> 5' direction.

Griffith investigated R and S strains with mice. What did he conclude about the S strain and the R strain in the trial with heat-killed S strain and living R strain?

• The mouse lived as the R strain provided protection from the nonliving S strain.

• The mouse died as the R strain did not provide protection from the nonliving S strain.

• The mouse lived as the R strain was not affected by a transforming agent released from the nonliving S strain.

• The mouse died as the R strain was affected by a transforming agent released from the nonliving S strain

Which of the following enzymes is responsible for joining the Okazaki fragments?

• DNA polymerase

• Helicase

• Primase

• DNA ligase

Which of the following describes how DNA replication differs between a prokaryotes and eukaryotes?

• Prokaryotes have circular DNA requiring one origin of replication while eukaryotes have multiple origins on linear DNA

• Prokaryotes have linear DNA requiring one origin of replication while eukaryotes have multiple origins on circular DNA

• Prokaryotes have circular DNA requiring multiple origins of replication while eukaryotes have one origin on linear DNA

• Prokaryotes have linear DNA requiring multiple origins of replication while eukaryotes have one origin on circular DNA

Which of the following describes how a plasmid and gene of interest are combined to create a vector?

• A restriction enzyme binds to the same restriction site on both DNA strands then DNA ligase seals phosphodiester linkage

• A primer binds to the gene of interest to facilitate the process of inserting the gene into the plasmid

• A helicase unwinds the DNA to allow for the gene of interest to be inserted then DNA ligase seals phosphodiester linkages

• A DNA polymerase uses the gene of interest as a template to insert the gene into the plasmid
