Wassarman Chapter 1-20 Answers are at the End of Each Chapter chapter 1 Indicate the answer choice that best completes the statement or answers the question. 1.

Gene G encodes a protein that is a crucial component of the forelimbs' small bones in mice. b. Gene G encodes a protein that is normally only present in the forelimb cells of developing mice. c. Gene G is necessary for proper development of the forelimbs' small bones in mice. d. Gene G is normally only present in the forelimb cells of developing mice. e. Gene G is normally only transcribed in the forelimb cells of developing mice. 3. Which of the following is a component of DNA? a. alanine b. arginine c. cysteine d. guanine e. tyrosine 4. The Central Dogma describes a. the hypothesis of how DNA is packaged into small molecules. b. the process by which RNA is processed within a cell. c. the flow of genetic information within cells from DNA to RNA to protein. d. how model organisms are used in experiments. e. the method of gene transfer between organisms. 5. In one strand of DNA, the nucleotide sequence is 5'-ATGC -3'. The complementary sequence in the other strand must be a. 3'-ATGC -5'. Name: Class: Date: Copyright Macmillan Learning. Powered by Cognero. Page 2 b. 3'-TACG -5'. c. 5'-ATCG -3'. d. 5'-CGTA -3'. e. 5'-TACG -3'. 6.

Watson and Crick solving the structure of DNA c. Walter Sutton and Theodore Boveri hypothesizing that chromosomes are the hereditary elements d. the rediscovery of Gregor Mendel's scientific findings and Walter Sutton and Theodore Boveri hypothesizing that chromosomes are the hereditary elements e. All of the answer options are correct. 10. Which enzyme is responsible for DNA replication? a. polymerase b. ligase c. nuclease d. allele e. ribosome Name: Class: Date: Copyright Macmillan Learning. Powered by Cognero. Page 3 11. Which of the following is/are TRUE of the DNA structure solved by Watson and Crick? a. It is a double -helical structure. b. Sugar–phosphate backbone is always toward the outside of the DNA. c. There are two hydrogen bonds between A and T and three hydrogen bonds between C and G. d.

How many different DNA molecules that are eight -nucleotide -pairs long are theoretically possible? a. 24 b. 32 c. 64 d. 256 e. 65,536 13. Wild cats (Felis silvestris ) and common mice (Mus musculus ) are diploid. In wild cats, 2n = 38, while in common mice, 2n = 40. Based on this information, we can conclude that wild-cat cells have a. less DNA than common -mouse cells. b. smaller genomes than common -mouse cells. c. fewer DNA molecules than common -mouse cells. d. fewer genes than common -mouse cells. e. fewer sets of chromosomes than common -mouse cells. 14. The process of inserting foreign DNA molecules into the genomes of a recipient organism is called a. replication. b. transformation. c. transcription. d. translation. e. ligation. 15. Who originated the one-gene–one-enzyme hypothesis? a. Tatum and Beadle b. Gregor Mendel c. Watson and Crick d. Franklin and Wilkins e. Hershey and Chase 16.

None of the answer options is correct. 18. Which enzyme cuts DNA at a specific location? a. polymerase b. ligase c. nuclease d. allele e. ribosome 19. What are alleles? a. gene variants b. enzymes c. regulatory elements d. de novo mutations e. quantitative trait loci 20. You have come across a dog (named Cindy) that does not have a tail. Interestingly, all the puppies produced by this dog don't have a tail. If the lack of tail is caused by a genetic mutation, where has this mutation most likely taken place? a. in Cindy's gametes b. in the cells that should normally have given rise to Cindy's tail c. in the cells that should normally have given rise to Cindy's and her puppies' tails d. in all of Cindy's cells (including her gametes) e. in a gamete of one of Cindy's parents 21. Why does the age of the father matter, while that of the mother seems to have no effect on the frequency of new point mutations? 22. Describe the purpose and function of DNA polymerase, nuclease, and ligase. 23. Mutations are often viewed as negative events, and they are nearly always bad for an organism. Paradoxically, without mutations there would be no evolution, and so they are essential. Explain how this is so. 24. Explain what it means to say that the genetic code is redundan t. How does this redundancy help protect against mutations?
