Flip
replication of DNA in Eukaryotes
is semi-conservative
Flip
pattern baldness is a trait that is referred to as sex..
linked
Flip
translation ends when a stop codon is at the __ site, allowing a __ to bind there.
A, release factor
Flip
suppose the 1st part of a new polypeptide chain being produced in a eukaryotic cell does not have a signal peptide. Where would you expect translation to occur?
cytoplasm only
Flip

none
Flip
a gene that produces multiple effects is call
a pleitropic gene
Flip
during meiosis II
sister chromotids of each chromosome are separated from each other
Flip
DNA replication occurs
between the gap phases of interphase
Flip
which applies to a cell underling mitosis?
the daughter cells have identical genes and these genes are identical to those of the mother cell that produced them
Flip
symptoms of phenylketonuria(PKU) may be minimized or suppressed by a diet low in
phenylalanine
Flip
the TATA box is a key lemon of the __ of most eukaryotic protein-coding genes
promoter
Flip
a women is diagnosed to have the genetic disease known as Huntington's disorder. It is a rare defect caused by an autosomal dominant allele. the chance for nay one of her children to inherit the disease is
one out of two
Flip
during elongation stage of transcription
*RNA nucleotides are added to the transcript *the transcript grows in the 5'-->3' direction *RNA polymerase unwinds the DNA *the double helix reforms behind RNA polymerase
Flip
DNA and RNA are alike in
*the pentose sugar *all the nitrogenous bases used to assemble the genetic code *The number of strands *their function in genetics
Flip
if one parent has type A blood and the other has type B, what types of blood are possible in their children?
A,B,AB,&O
Flip
the docking sites on the centromeres are called
kinetochores
Flip
males tend to be affected in greater numbers by X linked recessive genetic disorders than are females because
males have only one recessive gene for the disorder
Flip
which is an exception to the principle of independent assortment
linkage
Flip
examples of post-translational modification
*phosphorylation *glycosylation *attachment to ubiquitin *quartenary structure folding
Flip
a polysome is
an mRNA molecule with many ribosomes attached
Flip
the process of removing introns from mRNA and putting the remaining eons together occurs together occurs in a complex called the
spliceosome
Flip
in what stage of translation doe the peptide bind join 2 amino acids?
elongation
Flip
which if the following carries amino acids to ribosomes, where amino acids are linked into the primary structure of a polypeptide
mRNA
Flip
when both the dominant and recessive alleles are expressed (such as pink flower color in snapdragons), that trait is called
codominant

the genetic code is made up of units of which consist of how many nucleotides?
3
Flip
the form of RNA that carries the code from the DNA to the site where the protein is assembled is called
messenger RNA
Flip
the central dogma describes the flow of information of eukaryotic gene expression as
DNA-->RNA-->protein
Flip
an autosomal recessive disorder
will appear only in children of parents who both carry the gene
