All cells that make up an organism contain the exact same DNA sequence (genome) however individual cell-types look and function very differently. Why? Correct Answer-each cell-type expresses a unique set of genes of the genomic DNA. Speaking of genotype and phenotype how are these terms defined? Correct Answer-the genotype defines the genetic information (gene) and the phenotype the outcome of gene expression. Which of the following describes a functional gene? Correct Answer-a gene is def...

The tryptophan operon is a repressible operon that is: - ANSWER-Turned off whenever tryptophan is added to the growth medium. The lactose operon is likely to be transcribed when: - ANSWER-The cyclic AMP and lactose levels are both high within the cell. For a repressible operon to be transcribed, which of the following must occur? - ANSWER-RNA polymerase must bind to the promoter, and the repressor must be inactive. Which of the following, when taken up by the cell, binds to the represso...

19.1 Discuss why beneficial mutations are rare & suggest a process that beneficial mutations underpin (4 MARKS) - ️️Majority of mutations are silent (1); idea that random change to protein structure is more likely to reduce function (1); idea that beneficial mutations increase chances of survival if environment changes (1); surviving organisms reproduce and pass new alleles to offspring (1); leading to evolution (1) 19.1 Outline why majority of mutations do not have an influence phenotype (...

What is the LacZ enzyme? - Answer breaks down the disaccharide sugar D-lactose to the 2 monosaccharides D-galactose and D-glucose (both will go into glycolysis) What does binding of repressors & activators do to the DNA molecule? - Answer physically change it How is the trp repressor an example of negative regulation of a repressible anabolic operon? - Answer * Low tryptophan levels, transcription of the entire trp operon occurs * High tryptophan levels bind to repressor, repression occurs...

Biology 1000 – Principles of Biology ( BioS 115 Core II: Genetics) Exam Study Guide Questions With Answers. Explain the concepts of penetrance and expressivity Penetrance is the percentage of cases in which a certain phenotype is expressed. There are two types: i. Complete Penetrance: when 100% is correlated to the genotype. So, all express the same thing. ii. Incomplete: this is when some are identical, and others are different. Penetrance= # with genotype showing phenotype x 100 # wit...
