, Which of the following is true concerning photosynthesis and cellular respiration? - ANS
In cellular respiration, glucose is oxidized and oxygen is reduced, while in
photosynthesis, carbon dioxide is reduced and water is oxidized.
Which of the following is true about enzymes? - ANS Enzymes lower the activation
energy for a reaction
Which of the following is true for cellular respiration? - ANS To proceed into the Citric
Acid Cycle oxygen is required
K
Which of the following is true for all exergonic reactions? - ANS The reaction proceeds
with a net release of free energy
C
If a drug was administered that specifically makes the inner membranes of mitochondria
and thylakoids more permeable to small, charged ions, what would be the effect on ATP
LO
production? - ANS ATP production would decrease in both plants and animals
What is meant by the description "antiparallel" regarding the strands that make up
DNA? - ANS The 5' to 3' direction of one strand runs counter to the 5' to 3' direction of
the other strand.
YC
Transcription in eukaryotes requires which of the following in addition to RNA
polymerase? - ANS several transcription factors
Cytosine makes up 42% of the nucleotides in a sample of DNA from an organism.
D
Approximately what percentage of the nucleotides in this sample will be thymine? -
ANS 8%
U
Suppose you are provided with an actively dividing culture of E. coli bacteria to which
radioactive thymine has been added. What would happen if a cell replicates once in the
ST
presence of this radioactive base? - ANS DNA in both daughter cells would be
radioactive.
The genetic code is essentially the same for all organisms. From this, one can logically
assume which of the following? - ANS A gene from an organism can theoretically be
expressed by any other organism.
If one strand of DNA is 5'-CGGTAC-3', then the corresponding complementary strand
would
be - ANS 3'-GCCATG-5'
