Answers 100% Solved | Graded A+
What is different from eukaryotes and prokaryotes in replication - ✔✔Eukaryotes can have thousands
of repliation origins per chromosome
In what end is the nucleotides attached during DNA replication? and what functional group is found
here? - ✔✔3' Hydroxyl Group
leading strand - ✔✔the new complementary DNA strand synthesized continuously along the
template strand toward the replication fork in the mandatory 5' to 3' direction
lagging strand - ✔✔A discontinuously synthesized DNA strand that elongates by means of
Okazaki fragments, each synthesized in a 5' to 3' direction away from the replication fork.
What are challenges for DNA replication - ✔✔Torsion, Antiparallel Elongation, Priming DNA synthesis
Torsion - ✔✔Being to twisted
Antiparallel Elongation - ✔✔each strand of DNA faces in an opposite direction
DNA replication machine - ✔✔Stationary Complex
What is the error rate of DNA replication? - ✔✔1/10,000
nucleotide excision repair - ✔✔The process of removing and then correctly replacing a
damaged segment of DNA using the undamaged strand as a guide.
End of replication chromosomal - ✔✔They get shorter because RNA primer can not be replaced with
DNA (Eukaryotic) Dont have the problem because they are circular DNA (prokaryotes)
, Telomeres - ✔✔DNA at the tips of chromosomes to help prevent Erosion of DNA
silent mutation - ✔✔The base pair changes but does not change the amino acid
missense mutation - ✔✔The base pair changes and so does the sequence of amino acids
nonsense mutation - ✔✔The base pair changes and causes a stop codon
Sickle Cell mutation - ✔✔Point or missense mutation
frameshift mutation - ✔✔mutation that shifts the "reading" frame of the genetic message by
inserting or deleting a nucleotide
chromosomal mutation - ✔✔A change in the chromosome structure, resulting in new gene
combinations.
What is the process by which DNA directs protein synthesis - ✔✔Gene Expression
Two stages of gene expression - ✔✔1. Transcription
2. Translation
Beadle and Tatum - ✔✔The "one gene-one enzyme" hypothesis that the function of a gene was to
make a specific enzyme
what do we now know that genes encode for? - ✔✔Polypeptide chains
What is the central dogma? - ✔✔DNA-transcription-RNA-translation-protein
