ATI Teas 7 Biology Questions and
Correct Answers/ Latest Update /

Protein Synthesis
Ans: Forming proteins based on information in DNA and carried out by
RNA.
Transcription
Ans: DNA in nucleus is unzipped by RNA Helicase. mRNA creates and
delivers a copy to the ribosomes on the rough endoplasmic reticulum.
Translation
Ans: rRNA creates structure on ribosomes.
mRNA is decoded by tRNA which read the codons on mRNA. tRNA brings
amino acids to each codon. These amino acids then become protein.
Interphase
,2 | Page
Ans: G1, S, G2
G1 phase
Ans: Cell performs normal job, replicates organelles, and synthesizes
what's needed for DNA replication.
Checkpoint happens here.
S phase
Ans: DNA is replicated. (92 chromatin)
G2 phase
Ans: Cell grows, centrosomes mature and make microtubules.
Checkpoint happens here.
Mitosis
Ans: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase

Prophase
Ans: Chromatin condense and form "x" shape, nuclear envelope starts to
dissolve, centrosomes begin migrating to opposite side of cell.
Metaphase
Ans: Kinetochores form at centromere, nuclear envelope is fully dissolved,
centrosomes are at opposite sides of cell, and chromosomes line up in the
middle.
Checkpoint happens here.
Anaphase
Ans: Sister chromatids are pulled away from each other. Cell elongates.
Telophase/Cytokinesis
Ans: Nuclear membrane forms, chromatids become chromatin, and
cleavage furrow pinches parent cell to 2 identical daughter cells.
