NUR 622 (Adult_Gero Acute) MOD #12, Genetics, quiz Questions with CORRECT Answers (Grade
A+)
Question 1:
genotype vs phenotype
Answer:
genotype - information of sequence of DNA phenotype - observable and clinical expression (what
you see)
Question 2:
intergartes gene sequencing, bioinformatics, and clinical decision making, of organization,
function, and interpretation of an organism DNA
Answer:
genomics
Question 3:
display of all the chromosomes
Answer:
karyotype
Question 4:
of chromosome under light microscope
Answer:
cytogenetics
Question 5:
-long coiled up structure made of DNA that has instructions for your body -each human has 23
pairs
Answer:
chromosomes
Question 6:
, a specific segment of a chromosome which provides instruction for a specific trait ex. eye color or
hair texture
Answer:
genes
Question 7:
variant of each gene (two copes)
Answer:
allele ex. (brown eyes, blue eyes)
Question 8:
heterozygous vs homozygous alleles
Answer:
hetero - two different alleles for a gene (Aa) homo - same two alleles for a gene (AA, aa)
Question 9:
most important initial steps for diagnosing a suspected genetic issue?
Answer:
family history going back 3 generations
Question 10:

Answer:
germline - inherited somatic - occur after conception
Question 11:
