BIO BEYOND GENETIC REPLICATION WITH
COMPLETE SOLUTIONS GUARANTEED PASS
In the simulation below, build the strand that is complementary
to the one shown. In this case, you are not replicating the
strand but completing it. - ANSWER ->Thymine
Adenine
Guanine
Cytosine
Cytosine
Thymine
Thymine
Adenine
Guanine
Thymine
To continue, click on the image that you think best represents
how DNA normally looks in the cell. - ANSWER ->First image
Looking at the images, how many chromosomes are there in a
typical human? - ANSWER ->46
What do you notice about the chromosomes in both images? -
ANSWER ->They come in pairs
Why are chromosomes a poor way to think of how DNA is
normally stored? - ANSWER ->DNA only looks like this during
replication
, The top image, called a karyogram or karyotype, is from a
human female, while the bottom one is from a human male.
What major difference do you notice? - ANSWER ->The male
has a set of mismatched chromosomes
Thinking back to what you learned about genetics, what do the
colored bands on the chromosome represent? - ANSWER -
>Genes
What do the images pointing to each colored band represent? -
ANSWER ->Phenotypes
From your exploration of DNA structure and biological
macromolecules, what do you recall is the function of DNA in
the cell? - ANSWER ->Information storage
Which of the following characteristics are different between
prokaryotic and eukaryotic chromosomes? - ANSWER ->Shape
Where is the information stored in DNA? - ANSWER ->Base
sequence
Looking at the image to the right, what has to be done to
chromatin before the information in it can be accessed? -
ANSWER ->It has to be unwound to uncoiled DNA
From chromatin, two major processes are needed to prepare
for DNA replication. Watch the video at right - what processes
