Nanomed Final Exam 2025
Questions and Answers 100% Pass
What is nanomedicine? - ✔✔the application of nanotechnology in addressing current
issues and problems that are faced in medicine and healthcare
What is the primary rationale of working at the nanoscale range? - ✔✔it enables
scientists to utilize the unique physical, chemical, and biological properties possessed
by the materials at such small dimensions
What are the key properties of the nanoscale range? - ✔✔1. high surface area to volume
ratio
2. quantum effects dominate at this scale
3. biological scale
What is the rationale of using nanotechnology in medicine? - ✔✔at the nanoscale
certain materials exhibit different and chemical properties that are potentially beneficial
When the bulk material is broken down into smaller materials such that the volume of
the particles remains the same as the bulk material, the sum of the surface area of the
smaller particles is less than the surface area of the bulk material. True or False? -

, Molecular self-assembly is a top down approach for synthesis of nano-materials. True
or False? - ✔✔false
What are the three components of a nucleotide? - ✔✔sugar, phosphate, nitrogen base
DNA is the only molecule that is capable of replicating itself? True or False? - ✔✔true
Can proteins duplicate themselves? - ✔✔no
In replication, DNA polymerase adds bases from 5' to 3' direction from scratch. True or
False? - ✔✔false
State True of False:In the figure two gene promoter constructs are shown A and B.
Using genetic engineering one flips the position of the genes and promoters in the
construct resulting in the construct shown in C. In the case C, on turning on the
promoter 1 there will be expression of gene 2.
A) promoter 1, gene 1
B) promoter 2, gene 2
C) promoter 1, gene 2 - ✔✔true
In the cell where does the processes of replication, transcription and translation take
place? - ✔✔Replication-Nucleus, Transcription-Nucleus, Translation-Cytoplasm
It is desired to produce Keratinocyte Growth Factor (KGF) recombinantly. To this end, a
construct containing the gene encoding KGF in front of the eukaryotic promoter CMV
was created. Which host will you select for producing large quantities of KGF using this
construct? - ✔✔eukaryotic host
State True or False. " A researcher is trying to identify the role of protein A in a
particular disease. He decides to look at expression of the gene encoding protein A in
