Instructions

Check your understanding of concepts from 5·6–5·8 Building organisms: information in DNA directs the production of the molecules that make up an organism by answering the following questions.

1.

1. What is the primary product of the transcription of eukaryotic genes?

A.
B.
C.
D.
E.
Correct! (See section 5·6 In transcription, the information coded in DNA is copied into mRNA.)
Incorrect. (See section 5·6 In transcription, the information coded in DNA is copied into mRNA.)

2.

2. During transcription the DNA sequence of a gene is copied into a RNA molecule by:

A.
B.
C.
D.
E.
Correct! (See section 5·6 In transcription, the information coded in DNA is copied into mRNA.)
Incorrect. (See section 5·6 In transcription, the information coded in DNA is copied into mRNA.)

3.

3. In order for translation to occur:

A.
B.
C.
D.
E.
Correct! (See section 5·7 In translation, the mRNA copy of the information from DNA is used to build functional molecules.)
Incorrect. (See section 5·7 In translation, the mRNA copy of the information from DNA is used to build functional molecules.)

4.

4. During translation, chain elongation continues until:

A.
B.
C.
D.
E.
Correct! (See section 5·7 In translation, the mRNA copy of the information from DNA is used to build functional molecules.)
Incorrect. (See section 5·7 In translation, the mRNA copy of the information from DNA is used to build functional molecules.)

5.

5. To start the transcription process, a large molecule, __________________, recognizes a _______________________.

A.
B.
C.
D.
E.
Correct! (See section 5·6 In transcription, the information coded in DNA is copied into mRNA.)
Incorrect. (See section 5·6 In transcription, the information coded in DNA is copied into mRNA.)
