BIOBEYOND MAKING PROTEIN LATEST ACTUAL EXAM
WITH VERIFIED QUESTIONS & CORRECT ANSWERS
Question 1.
Where are the "instructions" for cellular function stored?
ANSWER
Nucleic Acids
Question 2.
what are some functions of nucleic acids?
ANSWER
Store information Speed up reactions Transport information
Question 3.
Shown is a diagram of a single-stranded DNA segment, similar to the one you built in Genetic
Blueprints, along with the three components of a single nucleotide. Match the components to
their names and determine the sequence of the complementary strand, using single letters for
the bases.
ANSWER
base sugar phospa
Question 4.
Complementary sequence from bottom to top (enter letters only - no spaces or punctuation):
ANSWER
ATCG
Question 5.
What holds the two strands together?
ANSWER
HYDROGEN BONDS
Question 6.
Where do you think the information is encoded?
ANSWER
The sequence/order of bases
1
, Question 7.
Produces free proteins
ANSWER
Ribosome E Yes
Question 8.
Protects genetic material
ANSWER
Nucleus A No
Question 9.
Produces proteins to be excreted
ANSWER
B No
Question 10.
In eukaryotes DNA resides in the nucleus, but proteins are made by ribosomes in the cytoplasm
or by ribosomes in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). How do you think the information from the
DNA (that is needed to make proteins) gets to the ribosomes?
ANSWER
The information is copied to another molecule which goes from DNA to ribosome
Question 11.
Prokaryotes don't have their genetic material stored in a nucleus. How do you think prokaryotic
genetic information gets to the ribosomes?
ANSWER
The information is copied to another molecule which goes from DNA to ribosome
Question 12.
Shown to the right are an RNA nucleotide and a DNA nucleotide. What differences do you see?
Select all that apply.
ANSWER
The structure of the sugar is different The structure of the nitrogenous base is different
