DNA A with T C with G Deoxyribose sugar + Nitrogen base + Phosphate= Nucleotide
DNA specifies traits Central dogma
Sample question: Question #1: The sugar & phosphate portions of a DNA molecule function mainly to do which of the following? A. store & transmit information about an organism’s traits B. attract the units that are used to create new DNA molecules C. provide the structural support for the sequence of nitrogenous base pairs D. provide the energy that the molecule needs to carry out its function Question #2: DNA affects the organism’s traits by doing which of the following? A. directing the assembly of amino acids to form proteins B. determining which traits will be most beneficial to the organism C. establishing the rules by which all of the elements in the body will form compounds D. identifying which genetic material should be expressed& which material discarded
Sample question: Question #1: What do these three statements describe? I. Instructions for translating information into proteinsII. Alignment & sequence of genes on a chromosomeIII. Composed of nucleotide triplets A. protein synthesis B. the genetic code C. cell differentiation D. DNA fingerprinting
Sample question: Question #2: Refer to the chart. The triplet codes found in this chart apply to: A. humans only. B. plants & animals. C. prokaryotes only. D. all living things.

gene expression is a regulated process Animation link
Sample question: Question #1: Every cell contains DNA. The main purpose of DNA is to store the cell’s genetic information. How does DNA control the cell? A. DNA activates nerve signals B. DNA protects the cell from invaders C. DNA speeds up chemical reactions D. DNA determines what proteins are made Question #2: The base sequence that remains after RNA splicing, & can be translated into a protein is a/an: A. exon. B. deletion. C. insertion. D. intron.
MUTATION= change in dna thecatatethefatrat
MUTATION & significance Beneficial or detrimental?
Sample question: Question #1: A scientist is searching for a chemical that can alter the characteristics a pea plant will pass on to its offspring. The scientist needs a chemical that can affect pea plants in which way? A. by altering the sequence of nitrogenous bases in the plant’s DNA B. by reducing the total number of copies of the plant’s genetic material C. by changing the spiral shape of the plant’s DNA molecules to wheels or horseshoes D. by adding extra deoxyribose molecules to each strand of the plant’s genetic material
Sample question: Question #2: Mutated DNA in somatic cells occurs frequently, but this modified DNA cannot be passed along to offspring because: A. modified DNA in somatic cells is recessive. B. offspring typically reject modified DNA. C. only gamete cells carry genetic material to offspring. D. offspring mutations happen only when somatic cells are diseased.
