What is the complementary sequence for the following DNA sequence? 5' - GCC ATC TCG AAT - 3' Correct Answer: 5' - ATT CGA GAT GGC - 3' Assuming 100% reaction efficiency, how many DNA copies are created after the completion of four complete PCR cycles? Correct Answer: 16 What is the function of DNA polymerase in the process of PCR? Correct Answer: It recognizes the primers and uses the available dNTPs to replicate the template DNA sequence. What are possible blood types of the par...

What is the complimentary DNA sequence to this sequence 5' - ATC CTT TAG GTT-3' Correct Answer: 5'-AAC CTA AAG GAT-3' Which answer choice displays the tRNA anticodon of the mRNA codon 5'- UGA-3'? Correct Answer: 5'-UCA-3' What would be the resulting mRNA sequence from the template strand with this sequence: 5'-CAG CTC GTC-3' Correct Answer: 5'-GAC GAG CUG-3' What is the coding strand DNA that would be made from this template strand? 5'-AAA TAC CGG GAT-3' Correct...

Bohr Effect chart (low pH) Correct Answer: C- High CO2 H- High H+ A- Acidic R-Release of O2(rt. Shift) T- tense state (in tissues) Primary structure Correct Answer: Sequence of amino acids that make up a protein Secondary Structure Correct Answer: Sequence of amino acids fold. Tertiary Structure Correct Answer: -more folding in a 3D shape. -R groups (side chains) Quaternary Structure Correct Answer: Protein has more than 1 polypeptide chain. Chemical reaction Correct Ans...

PCR- know the steps Correct Answer: 1) denaturation: heated to 95*C to separate it*** 2) annealing (cool to 50*C for sticking) 3) elongation (reaction heated to 70*C to build new DNA) ***ligase is NOT involved Ingredients for PCR: Correct Answer: Template DNA Nucleotides (dNTPs) DNA Polymerase DNA primers Base excision repair Correct Answer: how you're repairing a mutation remove damaged base and replace it DNA glycosylase see's damaged DNA and removes it DNA polymerase...

1. The polymerase chain reaction is a tool used to study protein structure. True False Correct Answer: False Feedback PCR is a tool used to amplify a specific segment of DNA. What color is the primer in the following diagram? Red Purple Blue Correct Answer: Red Feedback Recall from the section on DNA replication that DNA polymerase needs a primer to begin DNA synthesis. This requirement means the primers will direct the DNA polymerase to only synthesize complementary strand...
