The "factory" through which the "protein assembly line" is fed is the 

• cell membrane
• nucleus
• ribosome
• mitochondria

• 12
• 4
• 15
• 5

Who used plants to study the way traits are passed from parents to offspring?

• Sutton
• Punnett
• Mendel
• Allele

A mutation in DNA Could result in

• no change at all
• a harmful change
• a positive change
• All of the above

If you cross a white flower (pp) with a purple flower (PP), the possible genotypes of the offspring are 

• all PP
• all Pp
• all pp
• PP and pp

According to the last question, the phenotypes for a cross of PP x pp would be

• all white
• all pink
• all purple
• white and purple

The complementary strand to ATCGGATAC would be 

• TAGCCTATG
• TAGGCATAC
• TTGCCTTTC
• ATCGGATAC

If you cross two hamsters that have the genotype Tt, how many possible genotypes can be found in the offspring?

• four
• two
• one
• three

An original base sequence of DNA, AAACCCGGG, changes to AAACACGGG. This mutation is know as a(n)

• substitution.
• deletion.
• insertion.
• omission.

The organism's appearance is know as its 

• genotype.
• heredity.
• pedigree.
• phenotype.
