What are three types of RNA and where in your cells are each of them found?
|
Messagener RNA (m-RNA)- in nucleus
Ribosomal RNA (r-RNA)- ribosomes Transfer RNA (t-RNA)- cytoplasm |
|
After a point mutation occurs, what is different about a strand of DNA? What is different about DNA after a frame shift mutation occurs? Which mutation is more dangerous to cell's ability to produce a protein?
|
-it changes the codons
-it is definetly going to change the protein -deletion |
|
In order to diagnose a disorder, a doctor might take a picture of a patients chromosomes, and arrange each chromosome from longest to shortest with thhee chromosomes at the end. What is this type of chromosomal analysis called and why is it important?
|
-Karyotype Analysis
-to determine which set has the chromosal (22or 23) |
|

What is cell differentiation?
|
it is the point at which cells start preforming specific jobs
|
|
If you begin life as a single cell in your mother's womb, why arnt all of the cells in your body identical to that original cell?
|
each cell creates its own kind of protein so they each do their own job
|
|
If a blood cell and a nerve cell in your body have the same DNA, why do they look different from each other?
|
they look different from each other because of the protein made
