Domain 2 – Genetics: 15-Question Assessment

Monomer= Nucleotides

Monomer= Amino acids

Function= Build structures and repair

Function= Genetic information

each new cell needs a complete set of genetic information

it speeds up cell division

it prevents mutations from occurring

it helps the cell grow larger

The 2 "new" molecules of DNA are each made of a strand of old and new DNA

Both molecules of DNA are made of only new DNA

Both molecules of DNA are made of only old DNA

The old DNA molecule is removed from the cell, while the new DNA is retained in the cell

carries information from DNA to ribosome

delivers amino acids to growing protein

makes up ribosome

Gln Val

Tyr Leu

Met Asp

They all have the same DNA, they just express different genes

They all have their own unique set of DNA, and express those genes

Alleles from parent separate during meiosis

Alleles for one trait don't influence alleles for different trait

Dominant allele always shows
