  1. Honors BiologyDNA Review Jeopardy • March 2015

  2. The Rules • We’ll start with the draw of a popsicle stick and move around the room from there • When a group picks a category, everyone will get a moment to write an answer on their whiteboards • The group that chose the question will get a first attempt at answering it, then we will move clockwise around the room if they get it wrong, giving each group a chance. • EVERYBODY participates in double jeopardy, but they can only earn half the amount wagered by the group that chose the question (so if my group picked the DJ box and wagered $1,000, each other group can only earn a maximum of $500) • Excessive noise will result in lost $$$$$$

  3. The Building Blocks Seeing Double Protein Construction The Real X-men Regulate This DNA Soup $100 $100 $100 $100 $100 $100 $200 $200 $200 $200 $200 $200 $300 $300 $300 $300 $300 $300 $400 $400 $400 $400 $400 $400 $500 $500 $500 $500 $500 $500 $600 $600 $600 $600 $600 $600 $700 $700 $700 $700 $700 $700 Final Jeopardy!!!

  4. Structure- $100 • What are the monomers of RNA called?

  5. Nucleotides!!

  6. Structure- $200 • What are the parts of a nucleotide?

  7. Sugar • Phosphate • Nucleotide Base

  8. Structure- $300 • What sugar is found in DNA?

  9. Deoxyribose!

  10. Structure- $400 • What does DNA stand for? (Spelling counts!)

  11. Deoxyribonucleic acid

  12. Structure- $500 • What are the two “categories” of nucleotide bases? (Hint: One always pairs with the other!)

  13. Purines and Pyrimidines

  14. Structure- $600 • Who were the scientists who are credited with the discovery of DNA?

  15. James Watson and Francis Crick

  16. Structure- $700 • What are the structural differences between RNA and DNA? (There are 3 main ones!)

  17. Single stranded, not double stranded • Contains ribose sugar • Contains uracil instead of thymine

  18. Replication- $100 • When and where does DNA replication happen?

  19. Before cell division • In the nucleus

  20. Replication- $200 • Name the enzyme that “unzips” the two strands of DNA in replication. • What kinds of bonds does it break?

  21. DNA Helicase • Hydrogen bonds!

  22. Replication- $300 • What is the complementary DNA code for the following DNA sequence... TAC CTA GAT TAA ACA ATT

  23. ATG GAT CTA ATT TGT TAA

  24. Replication- $400 • Which strand of DNA is synthesized in Okazaki fragments? Why?

  25. The lagging strand • Because DNA polymerase can only move in one direction!

  26. Replication- $500 • What enzyme binds Okazaki fragments together?

  27. DNA ligase

  28. Replication- $600 • What must happen before DNA polymerase can start acting on the leading or the lagging strand?

  29. RNA primase must lay down RNA primer

  30. Replication- $700 • True or false: For replication to occur, the covalent bonds of DNA must first be broken.

  31. False- the covalent bonds are in the sugar-phosphate backbone!

  32. Transcription/Translation $100 • What is the name for a group of three nucleotides in sequence on a tRNA molecule? • Is this group of 3 the one that is directly “read” to determine the next amino acid in a protein?

  33. An anticodon • No (codons are, on mRNA!)

  34. Transcription/Translation $200 • Translate the following into its mRNA codons: TAC GAA CAT TCC GAT ATC

  35. AUG CUU GUA AGG CUA UAG

  36. Transcription/Translation $300 • What is the enzyme that adds nucleotides during transcription?

  37. RNA Polymerase

  38. Transcription/Translation $400 • What is the sequence of amino acids generated from the following DNA sequence: TAC CGG GCA TAA ACT

  39. Methionine, Alanine, Arginine, Isoleucine, Stop

  40. Transcription/Translation $500 • Translate the following DNA sequence into its tRNA anticodons: TAC GTA ATG CGG ATC

  41. UAC GUA AUG CGG AUC

  42. Transcription/Translation $600 • Where does translation take place? (The overall location and the organelle)

  43. In the cytoplasm • Ribosomes

  44. Transcription/Translation $700 • What is the name of the molecule responsible for carrying an amino acid to a ribosome?

  45. tRNA (transfer RNA)

  46. Mutations $100 • This type of mutation is a change in one base that results in a shift of one amino acid.

  47. Point mutation- missense mutation

  48. Mutations $200 • Which is more likely to cause damage- gene mutations or chromosome mutations? Why?

  49. Chromosome mutations- can affect multiple genes at once

  50. Mutations $300 • What is a mutagen?
