What descriptions describe cancer cells (pick 2)

1

What is a tumor?

An adult human body contains trillions of cells. Body cells go through the stages of the cell cycle. A diagram of the cell cycle is shown.


4

Describe TWO events that occur during the interphase stage of the cell cycle.

2

Mitosis and cytokinesis are important stages of the cell cycle. Explain why mitosis must occur before cytokinesis.

2

Describe one way a person's body would be affected if cells stopped going through mitosis and cytokinesis.

The model shows a mutation to a partial sequence of bases in a gene. Which type of mutation does the model represent?

1
DNA undergoes __________ to produce __________
1
RNA undergoes __________ to produce __________
2
A gene on chromosome 17 codes for the p53 protein.

Select from the drop-down menus to correctly complete the sentence.

After the gene is __________ into mRNA the mRNA is __________ to produce the p53 protein.
2
A student created a model of a DNA sequence and its mRNA transcript, as shown.

DNA 3'- AGC CGT ATC - 5'
RNA 5'- TCG GCA TAG- 3'

Select from the drop-down menus to complete the sentence describing the correction that should be made to the model.

The __________ nucleotides in the mRNA transcript should be replaced with __________ nucleotides
1

In cancer cells, mutations in the DNA cause the cells to reproduce uncontrollably, forming a tumor. Cancer directly affects which cellular process?

1

Which of the following is a primary reason for cancer cells developing in an organism?

1

Image W is a molecule that is a double helix. Image W is

1

The arrow labeled X represents a process where DNA is read, copied, and made into a single strand of mRNA. This process called

1

The arrow labeled Y represents the step in the process when mRNA is made into a protein chain. This process is called

1

The structure labeled Z is what is created as a result of protein synthesis. Structure Z is a long strand of

1

Which of the following is the correct sequence of events in the creation of a protein?

1

Which mutation would leave the phenotype (appearance) of the organism unchanged?

1

In a laboratory, cell parts were separated using a centrifuge. After the cell parts were isolated, RNA and amino acids were added to each sample. After some time, the samples were tested for proteins. Which sample most likely contained newly made proteins?

1

All six codons listed below code for the same amino acid during protein synthesis. CGU, CGC, CGA, CGG, AGA, AGG Which of the following statements describes an advantage of having multiple codons for the same amino acid?

1

Methylation is a process that can add methyl (CH3) groups to DNA. A gene containing methylated nucleotides often cannot be transcribed. As a result, proteins will not be produced. Which of the following cellular processes is most directly affected by DNA methylation?

1

The diagram below shows a strand of DNA matched to a strand of messenger (mRNA).  ​​What process does this diagram represent?

0

The diagram represents a chain of amino acids. The different shapes represent different amino acids.
A scientist wants to produce a single strand of DNA that codes for this amino acid chain. How many nucleotides will be in the DNA that the scientist produces?

1

Which diagram shows how RNA is read to produce an amino acid chain?

In a sample of double stranded DNA, 20% of the nitrogenous bases are adenine (A). What percentage of the nitrogenous bases in the sample are cytosine (C)?

CYP1A is a protein in organisms that breaks down toxic substances such as those found in oil. The amount of CYP1A protein in an organism depends on the expression of the CYP1A gene.
