Mutations Day 2

What is the relationship between these three structures?

• DNA is made up of proteins that are synthesized in the cell.

• Protein is composed of DNA that is stored in the cell.

• DNA controls the production of protein in the cell.

• The cell is composed only of DNA and protein.

Polypeptides containing different sequences of Amino Acids will have different

• Densities

• Shapes

• Building Blocks

• Bonds

Muscle Cells and Brain Cells ...

• Have the same DNA, but activate different genes

• Have the same DNA, and activate the same genes

• Do not have the same DNA, but activate the same genes

• Do not have the same DNA, and activate the same genes

ANY CHANGE in the sequence of the original DNA sequence

• Alteration

• Genetic Variation

• Genetic Sequencing

• Mutation

Traits and characteristics of an organism reflect the types of

• Cells they have

• Ribosomes they have in their cells

• Nutrition they carry out

• Proteins produced in their cells

The image here shows some similarities between John Lennon and his son Julian. Which conclusion can be drawn regarding these similarities?

• The DNA present in their body cells is identical

• The percentage of their proteins with the same molecular composition is high

• The base sequences of their genes are identical

• The mutation rate is the same in their body cells

The function of the coded instructions contained in the body cells of an organism is to

• Form a variety of gametes that will pass on hereditary information

• Direct the synthesis of proteins necessary for proper cell function

• Synthesize different kinds of amino acids in a specific sequence

• Produce the inorganic molecules needed for normal cell growth
