Part 1 of 1 - 100.0 Points
Question 1 of 40
2.5 Points
Nondisjunction during meiosis I will result in .
•
A. n
•
B. n-1
•
C. n+1
•
D. n+1 and n-1
•
E. n, n-1, and n+1
Feedback:Learning Objective: Explain how nondisjunction leads to disorders in chromosome
number
Question 2 of 40
2.5 Points
Which is likely to disrupt the function of the most genes: a 500kb deletion, a 500kb inversion, or a 500kb
translocation?
, •
A. Deletion
•
B. Inversion
•
C. Translocation
Feedback:The deletion will disrupt all the genes contained within it, but the inversion and translocation will
likely only affect the genes on the ends.
Question 3 of 40
2.5 Points
There are a number of unique features to eukaryotic pre-mRNA splicing. Select all that apply.
A. Introns are thought to encode specific subunits of proteins.
B. Introns likely slow down gene expression.
C. Introns need to be removed precisely to prevent mutations.
D. There are often multiple introns in a gene.
Feedback:Learning Objective: Understand the significance of exons, introns, and
splicing
Question 4 of 40
2.5 Points
Which amino acid can sometimes be present at the P site without first entering the A site of the ribosome?
•
A. alanine
•
B. tryptophan
•
, C. methionine
•
D. leucine
Feedback:Learning Objective: Discuss the role of ribosomes in protein
synthesis
Question 5 of 40
2.5 Points

sequence?
•
A. exonuclease
•
B. cleavase
•
C. endonuclease
•
D. sequenase
Feedback:Correc
