Pretest And Post Test Questions: Next Generation Sunshine State Standards: SC.912.L.16.9: Explain how and why the genetic code is universal and is common to almost all organisms. SC 912.L.16.3: Describe the basic process of DNA replication and how it relates to the transmission and conservation of the genetic information. 1) DNA polymerase from Thermus aquaticus is used in polymerase chain reaction, or PCR. This technique is used in crime labs to amplify DNA. If the crime lab used Thermus aquaticus DNA polymerase and a human DNA template, what kind of DNA would be produced? A) human DNA B) Thermus aquaticus DNA C) a mixture of human and Thermus aquaticus DNA D) human RNA E) No DNA produced (the reaction is not possible). Answer: A Refer to the figure below for questions 2 – 3 P P P P 1’ 2’ 3’ 4’ 1 2 3 4 P P P P 2) If base 3 is Adenine, What is base 3' ?
