Genetics and DNA NAME: Exam Review Packet BRING COMPLETED TO THE TEST FOR +5 xc PTS. The test will mostly cover DNA – practical questions will ask you to copy DNA, transcribe DNA into RNA code, or use the protein wheel There will also be some Punnett squares for heredity, and a few concept questions. Human Genetics Unit - Do identical twins have to look exactly the same? Explain - What factors play a role determining your phenotype? - If a genetic disorder is found mostly in males, the disorder is most likely what kind? - What does it mean for a person to be a carrier for a disorder? - Explain why most sex-linked disorders occur in males? (Hint: Think what makes a male different than a woman) - Human height is what type of trait? Why? DNA Unit - Where does DNA replication take place in a cell? - Given one side of the DNA strand (AGTCATCGA), what is the other side of the DNA strand? What would be the mRNA strand? - What scientist discovered and took the first image of DNA? - What is the shape of a DNA molecule? - What message does mRNA carry? - What is a clone? - Draw what would be seen after DNA is run through Gel Electrophoresis. Label which strands are the smallest and which are the largest. How did you determine this? - Each organism has a unique combination of characteristics encoded in molecules of what? - Give the following mRNA strand, write the correct amino acid sequence for it: AUCCCGCACGUA - What outcome has been achieved by the Human Genome Project?
