AP Unit 6 Review (Gene to Protein)

Differences between PRO / EU cells:

• Prokaryotes have a single replication bubble, while eukaryotes have multiple replication bubbles

• Prokaryotes have single-stranded DNA, while eukaryotes have double-stranded DNA

• Prokaryotes have multiple chromosomes, while eukaryotes have just one chromosome

• Prokaryotes have a leading strand only, while eukaryotes have the leading and lagging strands.

Differences between PRO / EU cells:

Which of the following statements best differentiates CELL DIVISION between the two cell types?

• Prokaryotes reproduce through mitosis, while eukaryotes reproduce through meiosis

• Prokaryotes have a single circular chromosome, while eukaryotes have multiple linear chromosomes

• Prokaryotes have RNA as their genetic material, while eukaryotes have DNA

• Prokaryotic cells reproduce two similar cells, while eukaryotic cells reproduce two identical cells

Differences between PRO / EU cells:

Which of the following statements best differentiates TRANSCRIPTION between the two cell types?

• Prokaryotes cells have a nucleus and eukaryotic cells do not have a nucleus

• Prokaryotic cells have single genes, and eukaryotic cells have multiple genes

• Prokaryotic cells do not modify mRNA, while eukaryotic cells DO modify mRNA.

• Prokaryotic cells do not correct errors in mRNA while eukaryotic cells DO correct errors.

Differences between PRO / EU cells:

Which of the following statements best differentiates TRANSLATION between the two cell types?

• Prokaryotes cells have small, simple ribosomes, while eukaryotic cells have large, complex ribosomes

• Prokaryotic cells have 25 amino acids, while eukaryotic cells have only 20 amino acids

• Prokaryotic cells use thymine in place of uracil, while eukaryotic cells use uracil in place of thymine.

• Prokaryotic cells are able to complete transcription and translation simultaneously, unlike eukaryotic cells.

Differences between PRO / EU cells:

Which of the following statements best differentiates GENE REGULATION between the two cell types?

• Prokaryotic cells have inducible and repressible operons, while eukaryotic cells have transcription factors.

• Prokaryotic cells are unable to control gene expression, while eukaryotic cells control it carefully.

• Prokaryotic cells are not dependent on their environment, while eukaryotic cells are very dependent on their environment.

• Prokaryotic cells have an immediate response to cellular demands, while eukaryotic cells have a delayed response.

DNA and RNA:

Which of the following statements is incorrect?

• DNA is double stranded; RNA is single stranded

• DNA is negatively charged; RNA is positively charged

• DNA contains thymine; RNA contains uracil

• DNA contains deoxyribose; RNA contains ribose

DNA and RNA:

Which of the following correctly matches structure and function?

• DNA is the genetic code of all cells; RNA Is the genetic code of all viruses

• DNA is the genetic code of eukaryotic cells; RNA is the genetic code of prokaryotic cells

• DNA contains the genetic code to build proteins; RNA transcribes and translates that code

• DNA contains the code to build cytoplasmic proteins; RNA contains the code to build endomembrane proteins

DNA and RNA:

Which of the following correctly matches location within a eukaryotic cell?

• DNA is found in the nucleus and RNA is found in the cytoplasm

• DNA is read 3' to 5' but RNA is read 5' to 3'

• DNA is read 5' to 3' but RNA is read 3' to 5'

• DNA creates the leading strand, while RNA creates the lagging strand
