  5. One would not want to have much phenylalanine with the disorder. A 200

  6. What is PKU (phenylketonuria)? A 200

  18. What is a carrier? B 300

  19. Cones are altered to some degree, and so is the person’s view of the world caused by this disorder. B 400

  20. What is color-blindness? B 400

  22. What is (Duchene's) muscular dystrophy? B 500

  23. The gender for all squares and circles. C 100

  24. What are males (squares) and females (circles)? C 100

  25. The genotype of a circle or square that is half- filled. C 200

  26. What is heterozygous? C 200

  35. What is a mutagen? D 100

  36. A point mutation ---an amino acid --- a faulty protein --- odd-shaped blood cells. D 200

  37. What is sickle-cell anemia? D 200

  38. If a mutation causes all the codons to change, this type of “shift” has occurred. D 300

  39. What is frame? D 300

  40. A mutation in which one nucleotide is substituted for another, and results in a change in one amino acid. (other than substitution) D 400

  41. What is a point mutation? D 400

  42. Cystic fibrosis is causes by this type of mutation, which involves one codon. D 500
