Resumo de Recurso

Questão 1

Questão
By observing bacterial transformation, Avery and other scientists discovered that the nucleic acid DNA stores and transmits genetic information from one generation of bacteria to the next.
Responda
  • True
  • False

Questão 2

Questão
Hershey and Chase's experiment with bacteriophages confirmed Avery's results, convincing many scientists that DNA was the genetic material found in genes-not just in viruses and bacteria, but in all living cells.
Responda
  • True
  • False

Questão 3

Questão
The DNA that makes up genes must be capable of storing, copying, and transforming the genetic information in a cell.
Responda
  • True
  • False

Questão 4

Questão
DNA is a nucleic acid made up of amino acids joined into long strands or chains by covalent bonds
Responda
  • True
  • False

Questão 5

Questão
The clues in Franklin's X-ray pattern enabled Watson and Crick to build a model that explained the specific structure and properties of DNA.
Responda
  • True
  • False

Questão 6

Questão
The double-helix model explains Chargaff's rule of base pairing and how the two strands of DNA are held together.
Responda
  • True
  • False

Questão 7

Questão
DNA poly merase is an enzyme that joins individual nucleotides to produce a new strand of DNA.
Responda
  • True
  • False

Questão 8

Questão
Replication in most prokaryotic cells starts from a single point and proceeds in two directions until the entire chromosome is copied.
Responda
  • True
  • False

Questão 9

Questão
In prokaryotic cells, replication may begin at dozens or even hundreds of places on the DNA molecule, proceeding in both directions until each chromosome is completely copied.
Responda
  • True
  • False

Questão 10

Questão
The process by which one strain of bacterium is changed into another strain is called
Responda
  • transcription
  • transformation
  • duplication
  • replication

  • be modified in response to environmental conditions.
  • be broken down into small subunits.

Questão 14

Questão
A nucleotide does NOT contain

  • the attraction of phosphate groups for each other.
  • strong bonds between nitrogenous bases and the sugar-phosphate backbone.
  • weak hydrogen bonds between nitrogenous bases.
  • carbon-to-barbon bonds in the sugar portion of the nucleotides.
