Question 3
At a generalized level, all cells are comprised of what?
Your Answer:
At a generalized level, all cells are comprised of macromolecules
Macromolecules*
*A student may also answer: Proteins, Lipids, Nucleic acids
and Carbohydrates, but they must answer with all four to be
fully correct.

Question 4
Proteins are formed from various combinations of [answer1] of which
there are [answer2] known forms.
Your Answer:
microbes
2 known forms
, 1. Amino acids
2. 20

Question 5
How many amino acids are classified as being essential amino acids?
Your Answer:
9

Question 6
Where can the two major types of nucleic acids be found in the cell, and
what are their roles?
Your Answer:
The two majpor types of nucleic acids can be found in the center of the
cell, they are the DNA - deoxyribonucleic acid and RNA- ribonucleic
acid. DNA has large amount of hereritady information, whereas RNA is
responsible of decoding the hereritady information found in DNA and
using that information to synthesize proteins
, While both DNA and RNA can be found in the nucleus
(center of the cell), only RNA is capable of leaving the
nucleus. DNA contains a vast amount of hereditary
information and is responsible for the inheritable
characteristics of living organisms. RNA is responsible for
deciphering the hereditary information in DNA and using it
to synthesize proteins.
