Question

g to explain the difference between chromosomes and DNA to your younger brother or sister younger than you. Write down your explanation in simple words that they could understand who is two years If you wanted to is cheek cells? Explain your reasoning olate a copy of the gene that codes for a protein found in the stomach, could that gene be located in The protease used in this procedure functions best at 50°C. Would you expect this enzyme to be isolated from Escherichia coli bacteria? Explain your answer. Hint: Where does E coli live? Meat tenderizer is often used to tenderize tough pieces of meat, like steak. Knowing that steak is made of protein- rich muscle tissue from cows, can you think of an explanation for how meat tenderizer works? DNA double helix does not have which of the following I. antiparallel configuration 2. complementary base pairing 3. major and minor grooves 4. uracil In eukaryotes, what is the DNA wrapped around? I. single-stranded binding proteins 2. sliding clamp 3. polymerase 4. histones Which of the following is the correct order of events in mitosis? A. Sister chromatids line up at the metaphase plate. The kinetochore becomes attached to the mitotic spindle. The nucleus re-forms and the cell divides. The sister chromatids separate. B. The kinetochore becomes attached to the mitotic spindle. The sister chromatids separate. Sister chromatids line up at the metaphase plate. The nucleus re-forms and the cell divides C. The kinetochore becomes attached to metaphase plate. Sister chromatids line up at the metaphase plate. The kinetochore breaks down and the sister chromatids separate. The nucleus re-forms and the cell divides D. The kinetochore becomes attached to the mitotic spindle. Sister chromatids line up at the metaphase plate. The kinetochore breaks apart and the sister chromatids separate. The nucleus re-forms and the cell divides

Explanation / Answer

1. dna is made up of cytosine adenine thymine and guanine.4 base pairs bind together to form a segment which is known as genes. And these segments coil together to form chromosome.

2. The gene responsible for the coding of protein can be found in the enzyme protease also present in saliva so it can be easily found in cheek cells.

3. The enzyme protease is responsible for protein breakdown which mainly works in stomach where the bacteria e. coli is found.

5. Uracil is not present in DNA instead of which thymine is present uracil is present in RNA.
