Revision sheet Biology Grade 12 A Genes in Action In the space provided, write T if the statement is true or F if it is false. _____ 1. An insertion is the change of one nucleotide from one kind of base to another. _____ 2. A missense mutation has no effect on the resulting amino acid sequence. _____ 3. A frameshift mutation causes a change in the reading frame of a DNA sequence. _____ 4. A deletion can occur as a small change in the DNA or a larger change in the chromosome. In the space provided, write the letter of the term or phrase that best completes each statement. _____ 5. Germ cell mutations are a. heritable (passed on to the next generation). b. not heritable c.similar in effect to body cell mutations. d. _____ 10. Nondisjunction can result in a. polyploidy. b. a normal number of chromosomes. c. a gene rearrangement. Using the word bank below, fill in each blank provided. intron lac operator operon promoter repressor splicing transcription 11. Exons are joined together during RNA _______________________. 12. A(n) _______________________ is the collective name for a group of genes with related functions, along with their promoter site, and their operator. 13. A(n) _______________________ protein binds to the operator and this inhibits transcription (turns off the operon). 14. The _______________________ operon controls the metabolism of lactose. 15. The _______________________ comes before the structural genes in an operon. 16. RNA polymerase binds to the _______________________ region. 17. The ____________________ factor serves as an on-off genetic switch for transcription in eukaryotes. 18. A segment of DNA that has no coding information is a(n) _______________________. B _____ 1. Point mutations involve a change in a. a single nucleotide. c. a few genes. b. a single gene. d. an entire chromosome. _____ 2. After mRNA has been transcribed in eukaryotes, a. its promoters are cut out. b. its operons are joined together. c. it leaves the nucleus through pores. d. its introns are removed. _____ 3. The mutation that has no effect on a gene’s function is called a. missense. b. silent. c. frameshift. d. enhancer. _____ 4. The mutation in which a chromosome carries repetitive sets of alleles for a gene is called a(n) a. duplication. b. deletion. c. translocation. d. inversion. _____ 5. An operon is composed of which of the following? a. a group of proteins, their promoter site, and their operator b. a group of genes, their operator, and RNA polymerase c. a group of genes, their promoter site, and their operator d. an enhancer, an operator, and RNA polymerase _____ 6. Regulatory proteins in eukaryotes that are involved in controlling the onset of transcription are called a. repressors. c. operators. b. transcription factors. d. enhancers. _____ 7. If a deletion mutation eliminated all of the guanine bases from the codon sequence GAT-CGC-CAA-TAG, the altered sequence would read a. ATC-TCA-ATA. c. ACC-CAA-ATA. b. ATC-CCA-ATA. d.

Translocations involve a piece of one chromosome moving to another chromosome. 3)When present in prokaryotic cells, lactose binds to the repressor protein. The repressor prevents RNA polymerase from binding to the promoter. With the blocking effect eliminated, the transcription of genes that code for lactose-metabolizing enzymes proceeds. 4).Introns are segments of nucleotides in eukaryotic genes with no coding information. After transcription, enzymes remove introns from the mRNA molecule. 5) a piece of a chromosome breaks off; duplication—a chromosome fragment attaches to its homologous chromosome, which then has two copies of the genes in the fragment; inversion—a chromosome fragment attaches to the same chromosome in the reverse orientation; translocation—a chromosome fragment attaches to another chromosome.
