MCAT Biology Central Dogma - correct answer DNA → RNA → Protein Purines - which bases? - how many rings? - correct answer Pyrimidines - which bases? - how many rings? - correct answer Remember: "Pyrimidine" has a "y" in it; so does "cytosine" and "thymine." Phosphodiester Bond - correct answer Joins one nucleotide to the next; between the 3rd C of one ribose and the 5th C of the other to create the sugar-phosphate backbone Directionality of DNA (convention) - correc...

How do catalysts and inhibitors affect reaction rates? How is ∆G affected by enzymes? correct answers catalysts increase reaction rates; inhibitors decrease them. ∆G is not affected by enzymes Name 3 ways to determine if something has been oxidized or reduced. correct answers oxidation= gain of oxygen, loss of hydrogen, loss of electrons reduction=loss of oxygen, gain of hydrogen, gain of electrons Name cellular location and end products per glucose for the following: glycolysis, pyru...

MCAT Biology Practice QuestionsHyperbaric oxygen may be used as a treatment for certain types of bacterial infections. In this therapy, the patient is placed in a which the partial pressure of oxygen is significantly increased, increasing the partial pressure of oxygen in the patient's tissues. This treatment is most likely used for infections with: A. obligate aerobic bacteria B. facultative anaerobix bacteria C. aerotolerant anarobic bacteria D. obligate anaerobic bacteria - correct an...

Le Châtelier's Principle correct answers the equilibrium will favor products when the concentration of products is kept low. cytochrome c correct answers a heme protein that only cycles between a ferrous and ferric state during oxidative phosphorylation. Only single electron transfers are possible. oxidative phosphorylation correct answers the process in which ATP is formed as a result of the transfer of electrons from NADH or FADH2 to O2 by a series of electron carriers. This process, w...
