DNA/RNA Study Guide- Test is tomorrow!!! 2/7/12

  1. Know the information about the scientists (what they did, the year, and the conclusion of their experiments)
  2. DNA Replication (where does it take place, when does it take place, what enzymes help with this process, what do the enzymes do, what is made)
  3. Transcription (where does it take place, when does it take place, what enzyme helps with this process, what does the enzyme do, what is made)

Example: DNA: ATT CAT TAG GAA GCA TAT CCA CGG TTA

mRNA: ______

I I

Newly Edited mRNA: ______

  1. Translation (where does it take place, when does it take place , what happens (the steps), what is made)

Example: Newly Edited mRNA: ______

tRNA: ______

Amino Acid Chain: ______

  1. Mutations – inversion, deletion, substitution, duplication, translocation, insertion

Example: original DNA: ATT CAT TAG GAA GCA TAT CCA CGG TTA

copy DNA: ATT CAT TAG GAA GCA TAT CAC GGT TA

Mutation ______

  1. Make sure you know all Flashcard material.
  1. Genetics vocabulary and Punnett Squares will also be on this test so make sure you remember this information.

Example: Cross a pink (RW) flower with a white (WW) flower. What are the phenotypes of the offspring?

Type of Punnett Square ______

You crossed a black (BB) cat with a tan (TT) cat and all the kittens were tabby (BT=black and tan). Cross a tabby cat with a tan cat. What’s the chance of having a black cat?
