Consider a benchtop synthesis reaction for a segment of DNA consisting of a helical arrangement of 14 nucleotides. (7 in each strand). The balanced chemical reaction for this hypothetical synthesis is given below.

If you allow 546.2 g of thymine, 456.7 g of adenine, 420.2 g of guanine and 514.6 g of cytosine to react in excess d-ribose and excess H3PO4, what mass of DNA may theoretically be produced?

Question 2 : The human body is said to contain approximately 50.0 grams of DNA in the entire body. If the number of nucleotides in ONE STRAND of DNA is approximately 3.0 x 106, and the average molar mass of a nucleotide is 327 g/mol, what is the average molar mass of an entire DNA double helix?

Question 3 : The total mass of DNA in the body is 50.0 g. If the number of nucleotides in ONE STRAND of DNA is approximately 3.0 x 106, and the average length of a single nucleotide is 0.34 nm, what is the length (in km) of one strand of DNA when it is stretched out to its maximum length (not in a helix)?

Question 4 : Using the average molar mass of a DNA double helix that you calculated in Question 2, what is the molarity of DNA in the human blood system. For the volume of blood, use the average volume of all the blood in a human body which is 4700 mL.

Your state Government hires interns for many of its offices. The Director of Human Resources has noticed that few of the interns submit all the needed paperwork and suspect that the problem is the form memo that goes out to interns. You've bee asked to revise the memo to make it more effective.

Subject: Getting your first paycheck on Time

So that you can receive you first paycheck on time. Please sent the following items to the office of Human Resources by the first working \day of next month. A copy of you Social Security card or a copy of your birth certificate, a copy of your driver's license, proof of enrollment in an accredited college (accepted items include a paid fee statement from the registar's office, a copy of your college identification card with the term and year on it, and proof of your grade status(e.g. first year, sophmore). Attach one of the following your latest grade report, your latest transcript , a letter from the registar's office verifying your grade status, a copy of you college identification card that shows what level you are in. Pay is based on how many quarter or semester hours you have completed. At the end of each term, notify Human Resources, You may be eligible for a pay increase.

Design an experiment to knock out a certain gene of interest in the human genome. Outline the experiment, explaining the methods you would use, and also indicate how you would verify your experiment was successful at each step.

Why are gram-negative microbes and their related property of endotoxin of great concern to human health? Use the organism Neisseria meningitidis, and the resultant septicemia known as meningococcemia, to BRIEFLY apply the important concepts related to this question. Is there prevention for this outcome?

Topic: Person-to-person viral diseases

• Provide an example of a pathogen in the category.
• Provide the genus and species of the pathogen, along with the name of the illness the pathogen causes in humans.
• From an epidemiological perspective, why is this pathogen a human health threat?

Define Bioinformatics. What role does it play in healthcare IT? How does it help us in identifying what is the relationship between understanding the genetic basis of a disease and treating the disease? Discuss using example of Human Genome Project.

If you synthesized a drug, does it make sense to only use TLC to prove that the drug was pure before human consumption? Explain your answer. What other methods learned this semester might be helpful to verify purity?
