AP Biology Unit 2.1 AP Exam review Questions and Answers What is the structure and function of the ribosome? A ribosome has two subparts, one large subunit and one small subunit. A ribosome functions to synthesize proteins using messenger RNA How does the structure of a ribosome aid in its function? Because ribosomes are made of ribosomal RNA it aids in its ability to read mRNA. because of its structure it can take in the mRNA and read it to synthesize proteins What are the three ty...

AP Biology Unit 6 Topics 3 & 4 fully solved 2023Proteins are _______________ made up of _____________ ________ polypeptides, amino acids Which bonds connect amino acids? peptide bonds gene expression the process by which DNA directs the synthesis of proteins What two stages are used to synthesize proteins? transcription and translation (occurs in all organisms) Describe the basic sequence from DNA to protein. DNA -> transcription -> RNA -> translation -...

Which of the following outlines the four types of decisions assessment helps educators make? screening, progress, diagnostic, or outcome What do the ipsative standards compare? a student's performance on the assessment compared to that of his prior performance. According to research, how long should a teacher wait after asking a question? until at least one person knows the answer What does checking for understanding allow a teacher to assess? whether or not the teacher...

Neuron Function How does a signal travel across and between neurons? Why? Just as the coaxial cables that run down your street or through your house carry television and Internet signals, the job of a neuron is to move an electrical signal from one place to another in order to send sensory messages throughout the body. In a previous activity you saw how a membrane potential is formed both at rest and during an inflow of ions. In this activity you will explore how changes in membrane potent...
