It will swell (bigger) because water will enter the cell.

It will swell (bigger) because water will exit the cell.

Osmosis is the movement of water . What will be the direction of the water movement?

The water will move in both direction at equal rates!

Why are viruses are considered nonliving organisms?

Viruses need a host cell to reproduce .

Viruses cannot absorb nutrients .

Which of the following occurs after a virus attaches to a host cell in the viral reproduction process?

The virus inserts its genetic information into the host cell.

The host cell immediately dies .

The virus dies after attaching the the host cell.

Copies of the virus are immediately released from the host.

In mitosis , the two resulting cells are -

identical to the starting cell and identical to each other.

different from the starting cell and identical to each other.

different from the starting cell and different from each other.

identical to the starting cell and different from each other.

DNA replication results in two DNA molecules,

each one with one new strand and one original strand

each one with two original strands

one with two new strands and the other with two original strands

What are the three components of a nucleotide?

sugar, phosphate, nitrogen base

What determines the code, or information, of a DNA molecule?

the order (sequence) of the nitrogen bases

the shape (structure) of the nitrogen bases

the color of the nitrogen bases

the frequency (number) of nitrogen bases

What is the purpose of this process?

to create polypeptides and, eventually proteins for gene expression

to copy original DNA strands into complimentary strands

to regulate the internal environment of the cell

The main function of tRNA is to...

bring amino acids from the cytoplasm to the ribosomes

carry a message that, when translated, forms proteins

string together complementary RNA and DNA strands

Why is the order of amino acids so important?

The order of amino acids dictates what shape the protein will fold into.

It is not important. The protein folding chamber will force the protein to fold into the correct shape.
