Unit 4 Review Sheet Genetics and Biotechnology Vocabulary Heredity Chromosomes Nitrogenous Bases (what are they?) DNA Replication Protein Protein synthesis Expressed Selective Breeding Gel Electrophoresis DNA Genes Base-Pair Rule Semi-conservative Model Transcription Mutation Genetic Engineering Recombinant DNA Restriction Enzymes RNA Nucleotide Template Amino Acid Translation Allele Biotechnology Gene Therapy Genome DNA and RNA Structure - How many strands? - What are its building blocks? - What bases are found in DNA/RNA? - What’s the Base-Pair rule? - Where is DNA/RNA found in the cell? - What is a chromosome? How many do we have? What’s special about sex chromosomes? - How is RNA similar and different to DNA? DNA Replication - Why is DNA replication “semi-conservative?” *You do NOT need to know the names of the enzymes involved in this process. Protein Synthesis - What is the relationship between DNA, genes and protein? - What is junk DNA? - What is transcription? What is translation? Where do these processes occur? - Do you know how to use the codon chart? - Why is the sequence of amino acids important to the shape and function of a protein? *You do NOT need to know the names of the enzymes involved in this process. Mutations - What is a mutation? - What kind of mutations can happen to DNA (i.e. a nucleotide is deleted)? - Do all mutations result in a faulty protein? Why or why not? - What is trisomy 12? What is another name for this disease? Mendelian Genetics - How many copies of genes does each of us have? Where do we get each copy from? - What’s the difference between dominant and recessive alleles? *You do NOT need to know how to do a Punnett Square for this exam. Gel Electrophoresis - Can you explain, in 2 sentences, what this lab procedure is? - What is the purpose of this laboratory technique? - How can this lab technique be used to determine relationships between organisms? Nature vs. Nurture - How can the environment influence gene expression? - What kind of environmental factors can influence gene expression? Biotechnology - What is selective breeding? Genetic Engineering/Recombinant DNA? Gene Therapy? - What is one positive and one negative effect these technologies have had on our society and the environment?
