Different types of mutations can occur in DNA.The diagram represents a type of mutation. Which statement describes the mutation in the diagram?

A base is inserted into one strand of the DNA.

A silent mutation results in the insertion of a different amino acid.

A substitution occurs with the adenine base.

A deletion of a cytosine base occurs.

Four different types of cells are shown in picture. Which characteristic is shared by all four cells?

Genetic material composed of DNA

A mechanism for transforming sunlight into energy

Membrane-bound organelles that transport substances

The arctic fox inhabits northern areas of North America. The same arctic fox is shown in the drawing at different times of the year. What causes this change in fur color?

Gene expression for fur color is regulated by temperature.

The arctic fox has two traits for fur color that are determined at birth.

The alleles for fur color change as the arctic fox grows older.

Gene expression for fur color is regulated by latitude.

Why is DNA important?

it serves as the blueprint for making proteins

it is very small and very complicated

because we eat it every day for energy

What components make up the backbone of a DNA molecule?

Deoxyribose and phosphate groups

Phosphate groups and pyrimidines

Which statement best describes a similarity among trees, cats, and amoebas?

They contain DNA composed of the same four types of nucleotides.

They are prokaryotic organisms.

They are classified as members of the same kingdom.

They have genomes that consist of the same number of genes.

Which statements explain how a mutation in a somatic cell is different from a mutation that occurs in gametes?

Somatic cell mutations are generally not passed to offspring. Gamete mutations are usually passed to offspring.

Somatic cell mutations occur in cells that give rise to gametes. Gamete mutations occur in cells that result in apoptosis.

Somatic cell mutations are maintained in the gene pool. Gamete mutations are expelled from the gene pool.

Somatic cell mutations will not be expressed by the individual that contains the mutation. Gamete mutations will be expressed by the individual.

E. coli has three genes that each code for different enzymes that break down lactose. Scientists conducted investigations about the production of these enzymes using samples of E. coli. Their results are shown in the table. Which conclusion about the production of the enzymes can be determined by analyzing the scientists’ results?

Gene expression for the enzymes was controlled by the presence of lactose.

Gene expression for the enzymes was controlled by the temperature of lactose.

The genes for the enzymes were expressed in equal amounts during both experiments.

The genes for the enzymes were mutated before being expressed by the presence of lactose.

Which of the following best explains the term gene expression?

the production of proteins based on the genetic information in DNA

the suppression of RNA polymerase

the suppression of protein production

the production of lipids based on the genetic information in DNA

Part of an important cellular process involving a DNA strand is modeled here. What is the purpose of this cellular process?

transcribing information in the DNA sequence for use by the cell

preserving genetic information for future generations

deleting the information in the sequence produced from the DNA template

producing more nucleotides for the DNA sequence

Which reason explains why nerve cells function differently than muscle cells?

In both kinds of cells different genes are expressed.

In nerve cells all the genes are expressed.

In muscle cells all the genes are expressed.

In both kinds of cells the same genes are expressed.
