Nucleotides join in chains at

the 5' phosphate head and the 3' sugar tail

Single base additions or subtractions

Always have a major effect on the gene

Bateson and Punnett found that traits did not behave independently, this proved

That some traits were linked on a chromosome

Griffith found that a "transforming factor" could make bacteria deadly to mice. This was

a chemical substance called a gene

What were two assumptions that Mendel relied on for his theory of inheritance?

Two traits are inherited, one is dominant

Watson and Crick showed that

Base pairs are held together by hydrogen bonds

3
Single base additions or subtractions
Always have a major effect on the gene
Are how dominant genes are formed
May have an effect on the gene
Have no effect on the gene
4
Bateson and Punnett found that traits did not behave independently, this proved
That some traits were stronger
That some traits were not as important
That some chromosomes were inherited seperately
That some traits were linked on a chromosome
5

6
Griffith found that a "transforming factor" could make bacteria deadly to mice. This was
A chemical substance called a prion
a chemical substance called a gene
A chemical substance, they are all bad man....
A chemical substance called an antigen
7
What were two assumptions that Mendel relied on for his theory of inheritance?
Two traits are inherited, one is dominant
Four traits are inherited, two are dominant
Pea plants reproduce sexually, traits work together
Traits are inherited, the new plant modifies them
8
The first person to identify genes as the method of inheritance was
Georg Blumstead
Louis Pastuer
Greg Highstead
Gregor Mendel
9
Watson and Crick showed that
The DNA strand cannot be modified
DNA cannot act as a template for its own replication
Base pairs are held together by hydrogen bonds
A bonds with C and T with G
10
Only one strand of DNA contains the gene, this strand is known as the
active strand
Complimentary strand
fill strand
template strand
