Chapter .1 . Genetics: .The .Study .of .Biological .Information
1) How .does .DNA .structure .relate .to .its .function?
- The .order .of .nucleotides .in .a .DNA .strand .specifies .the .order .of .amino .acids
.in .aIprotein.
2) What .is .a .difference .between .the .structure .of .DNA .and .proteins?
- DNA .is .composed .of .nucleotides .and .proteins .are .composed .of .amino .acids.
3) A .genome .can .be .best .described .as
- the .DNA .in .all .chromosomes .in .a .cell.
4) What .is .the .difference .between .the .function .of .DNA .and .the .function .of .proteins?
- DNA .stores .genetic .information .and .proteins .perform .most .cellular .functions.
5) Which .statement .supports .the .theory .that .all .organisms .are .related?
- The .genetic .code .is .almost .universal.
6) New .genes .are .thought .to .arise .by .which .mechanism?
- Gene .duplication .followed .by .divergence .due .to .mutation.
7) What .is .the .most .likely .way .a .mutation .in .one .gene .can .convert .one .body .part .to

- The .mutated .gene .encodes .a .protein .that .affects .the .expression .of .many .other
genes.
8) A .recent .technical .advancement .that .has .accelerated .the .study .of .genomes .is
.the .abilityto
- sequence .large .complex .genomes .rapidly .and .inexpensively.
9) What .is .the .difference .between .genetic .dissection .and .genome .sequencing?
- Genetic .dissection .reveals .information .about .one .gene .at .a .time .and
.genomesequencing .reveals .information .about .all .the .genes .in .a .genome .at
.once.
10) Currently, .what .information .can .be .obtained .from .sequencing .an .individual's .genome?
- Information .about .gene .variants .that .predispose .a .person .to .a .disease,
.such .asIcancer.
11) Which .is .not .a .potential .problem .of .allowing .the .genomic .sequences .of
.individuals .tobecome .widely .available?
- Advances .leading .to .healthier .lives .for .some .people.

12) One .strand .of .DNA .has .the .sequence .5′ .GGTCTA .3′. .What .is .the .sequence .of .the
.otherstrand?
- 5′ .TAGACC .3′
13) Which .statement .is .true .about .the .structure .of .DNA?
- The .two .strands .of .a .DNA .molecule .are .held .together .by .base .pairing.
14) The .size .of .the .mouse .(M. .musculus) .genome .is .2700 .megabases .(Mb) . and . it
. contains .about .25,000 .genes .arranged .on .40 .chromosomes. .If .the .genes . are .evenly
.distributed .on .chromosomes .in .the .mouse, .what .is .the .average .number .of .genes .per
.chromosome?
- .625
15) Which .statement .about .the .structure .of .proteins .is .false?
- Most .proteins .consist .of .two .amino .acid .polymers .attached .together .by
.hydrogen .bonding.
16) Which .is .a .structural .feature .shared .by .DNA, .RNA, .and .proteins?
- The .order .of .monomers .is .important .for .function.
17) A .segment .of .a .protein .has .the .amino .acid .sequence .Ser—Gly—Leu. .Is .it .possible
.toinfer .the .sequence .of .the .RNA .that .encodes .this .amino .acid .sequence?
No; .more .than .one .type .of .RNA .(more .than .one .base .sequence) .could .encode .this
.aminoacid .sequence.
