Which of the following does not play a role in "charging" the tRNA molecules?

What term refers to the process of making RNA from a DNA template?

What term refers to the process of making protein from an RNA template?

What is “transcriptomics" and what advantages do zebrafish present for transcriptomic analyses?

What type of chromosome do bacteria have and where does replication begin? Which direction does it go?

•Does an ecologist studying factors limiting numbers in a population of zebras need to consider the influences of interactions with other species or the influences of food on the survival of individuals?Explain your answer…

Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae infections are often asymptomatic. What are the consequences of having an asymptomatic infection? Each of these pathogens has one or more mechanisms that promote host infection. Describe these (give 2 examples) mechanisms for one of these pathogens.

3. Listed below are the phenotypes of the offspring from a pizza self fertilization experiment regarding the traits of toppings and crust thickness. Yeah that’s right, in my dream world pizza can self fertilize. AND THEN I EAT IT ALL.

What is the dominant phenotype for pizza toppings?

OK. So, in looking at these data, do you think these genes are linked or unlinked? Briefly explain how you arrived at that conclusion.

So if you did a dihybrid testcross with your dihybrid, what would the phenotypic ratio be?

Using the same example in the book, work the Hardy-Weinberg Equation for the following The sample size is 3200 plants. Keep in mind, flowering plants are diploid. (6 Pts.)

There are:                                                                                                                                                                                         

1980 Blue flowers                 1000 Teal flowers                220 Green flowers

What does this all mean? What are the numbers doing for you?

What are ABC transporters and how do they work?

What are the differences between predictive & carrier testing? What is the relevance of incidental findings that may occur as a consequence of these tests?

4. Here we’ve performed a dihybrid testcross with a pizza a dihybrid that is thick crusted with BBQ sauce.

Based on this data, are these genes linked?

This is a dihybrid testcross. You know the phenotype of the dihybrid... given this information, what is the phenotype of the other mating partner in this cross?

Cool. So, based on this data, are these genes in a cis or trans arrangement in your dihybrid?

How many map units apart are the genes for crust thickness and sauce type?

FOR BONUS FUN (not part of the completion point for this HW)... take all of the information you have regarding these 3 pizza genes from questions 3 and 4 and draw a map.

Design and submit a concept map on what you have learned. It should include concepts and connections between concepts including: Bacteria Structure Bacteria Function Transmission and replication Types

9. Pectin is a food polysaccharide used to provide gelation in many different foods. a. Described how a pectin gel is formed, discussing i) the role of calcium and ii) the role of different types of water. (8 points) b. Give examples of two processed foods where pectin is used to improve product texture. (2 points)
