Chapter 1: Dna Structure And Function
Multiple Choice
1. In Which Body Or Cell Area Are Most Genes In Humans Located?
a. Nucleus
b. Mitochondrion
c. Cytoplasm
d. Plasma Membrane
Ans: A
Most Genes Are Part Of The Dna Located In The Nucleus Of Body Cells. Only A
Few Genes Are Located In A Cell’s Mitochondrion Or Mitochondria. There Are No
Genes Or Dna In Either The Cytoplasm Or The Plasma Membranes Of Any Cell.
2. Which Condition Or Statement Exemplifies The Concept Of Genomics Rather Than
Genetics?
a. The Gene For Insulin Is Located On Chromosome 11 In All People.
b. Expression Of Any Single Gene Is Dependent On Inheriting Two Alleles.
c. Sex-Linked Recessive Disorders Affect Males More Often Than Females.
d. One Allele For Each Gene Is Inherited From The Mother, And One Is
Inherited From The Father.
Ans: A
Genetics Is The Study Of The General Mechanisms Of Heredity And The
Variation Of Inherited Traits. Genomics Is The Study Of The Function Of All The
Nucleotide Sequences Present Within The Entire Genome Of A

gemnEs
. wins Dna Coding Regions And Dna Noncoding
Regions. Selections B, C, And D All Refer To Mechanisms Of Heredity. Only
Selection A Refers
To The Function Of A Specific Nucleotide Sequence.
3. What Is The Purpose Of Phosphorous In A Dna Strand?
a. Linking The Nucleotides Into A Strand
b. Holding Complementary Strands Together
c. Ensuring That A Purine Is Always Paired With A Pyrimidine
d. Preventing The Separation Of Double-Stranded Dna Into Single-Stranded Dna
, Test Bank - Genetics and Genomics in Nursing and Health Care, 2nd Edition (Beery, 2019)
Ans: A
Each Nucleoside Becomes A Complete Nucleotide When A Phosphate Group Is
Attached. The Phosphates Have Multiple Binding Sites, And Each One Can
Link To Two Nucleotides. These Linkages Allow The Nucleotides To Be
Connected When Placed Into The Dna Strand. The Nucleotides Within Each
Strand Are Held In Position By The Linked Phosphate Groups, Which Act Like
The String Holding A Strand Of Beads Together, Forming A Necklace.
4. What Is The Term Used To Define Alternative Forms Of A Gene That May
Result In Different Expression Of The Trait Coded For By That Gene?
a. Alleles
b. Bases
c. Centromeres
d. Diploids
Ans: A
