Imagine you have discovered a new species of bacteria. To begin your investigation
of this organism, you run an assay on the total nucleotide content of the bacterial
cells. If the cytosine content of DNA from the bacterial cells is 17%, what is the
adenine content?
a. it is impossible to calculate this number for prokaryotes
b. 34%
c. 33%
d. It is impossible to calculate this number for eukaryotes
e. 17%
f. 66%

c. 33%
sexual reproduction:
a. results in a new generation with the same number of chromosomes as the parents
b. results in offspring that are not genetically identical
c. results in a new generation that is not genetically identical to its parents
d. results from combining genetic material from two gametes
e. all of these choices are correct

e. all of these choices are correct
the division of replicated genetic material into two eukaryotic daughter cells is called
a. cytokinesis
b. genetic fission
c. replication
d. mitosis

What is the difference between a gene and an allele?
a. An allele is a segment of DNA that codes for a protein or RNA; a gene is an
alternate form of an allele.
b. An allele is a segment of DNA that codes for a gene; a gene is an alternate form of
an allele.
c. A gene is a segment of DNA that codes for a protein or RNA; an allele refers to all
the DNA of an organism.
d. A gene is a segment of DNA that codes for a protein or RNA; an allele is an
alternate form of a gene.
