Week 12 Quiz

these are repetitive caps at the end of DNA Strands, made by a specific enzyme and carries its own RNA primer

• telomeres

• DNA Caps

• Okazaki fragments

• single stranded binding proteins

this enzyme prevents super coiling of the DNA double strand

Match the following!

• re-anneals Okazaki fragments

• DNA polymerase III

• builds DNA and proofreads new strands

• Ligase

• polymerase activity 5' to 3'.

• DNA polymerase 1

• provides a primer for synthesis

• Helicase

• unwinds DNA double helix

• Primase

• 121.8cM

• 13.4cM

• 1.2cM

In Griffith's transformation experiments,

• the R form transformed the S form into a virulent variety of the bacteria.

• mice infected with live R form caused pneumonia and death in mice.

• the S form lacked an enzyme involved in the manufacture of the polysaccharide coat, leading to the abnormally smooth colonies.

• mice infected with heat-killed S form and live R form caused pneumonia and death in the mice.

• it is composed of a double helix

• it uses the nucleotides A, T, U, G

• it has two strands

• 1,0

• 0,1

• 1, multiple

• multiple, 1
