WGU 785 FINAL EXAM QUESTIONS
AND CORRECT ANSWERS
(VERIFIED ANSWERS) A GRADE
3 functions of insulin: - correct answer- 1.
stimulates gluclose uptake
2. inhibits glycogen breakdown
3. stimulates fatty acid production and storage
3 Steps of PCR - correct answer- 1.
Denaturation: DNA is heated to 95C to separate it.
2. Annealing: reaction is cooled to 50C; primers stick to
the DNA you want to copy and add DNA polymerase.
3. Elongation: reaction heated to 70C and DNA
polymerase, adding nucleotides building a new DNA
strand.
4 steps of Beta Oxidation: - correct answer- 1.
FAD -> FADH2
2. H2O
,3. NAD+ -> NADH
4. CoA
5' AAG CGG TAC GTA 3'
What would be complimentary strand? - correct
answer- 5' TAC GTA CCG CTT 3'
5' ATG AGT CTC TCT 3'
What would be the mRNA sequence? - correct
answer- 5' AUG AGU CUC UCU 3'
5' ATG AGT CTC TCT 3'
What would be the template strand? - correct
answer- 3' TAC TCA GAG AGA 5'
5'ATG AGT CTC TCT 3'
,What is the corresonding mRNA sequence? - correct
answer- 5'AUG AGU CUC UCU 3'
This sequence is the same as the coding strand except T
changes to U because it is RNA. RNA doesn't have T.
5'ATG AGT CTC TCT 3'
Find the DNA template strand. - correct answer-
3'TAC TCA GAG AGA 5'
The DNA template strand is complimentary. So start with
the opposite number, then go L-R with the complimentary
letter.
A dehydration reaction _______ a polypeptide, whereas a
hydrolysis reaction ______ a polypeptide. - correct
answer- A dehydration reaction builds a
polypeptide, whereas a hydrolysis reaction breaks a
polypeptide.
A misfolded protein: - correct answer- 1. causes
protein aggregation
2. can result from denaturation
, 3. can be degraded by the cell
4. will lose its normal function
Abbreviated structure of Amino Acids - correct
answer- COO-
I
H-C-R
I
NH3
Amino acids form ______ by loss of water to make
_______. - correct answer- Amino acids form
peptide bonds by dehydration to make protein.
Autosomal:
Dominant: - correct answer- Autosomal: males
and females equally affected.
Dominant: non-carrier parents
