A gene mutation can alter the phenotype by changing the function
of a) a carbohydrate b) protein c) lipid d) nucleic acid
Point mutations fall into two general categories: a)
depurination / deamination b) radiation / chemical c) base-pair
substitution / base-pair insertions or deletions d) ionizing
mutations / non-ionizing mutations
Base-pair insertions or deletions, if one or more base pairs are
added or deleted leads to
a) frameshift mutation b) purination mutation c) amination mutation
d) ionizing mutation
Most present day geneticists believe that variation among
organisms resulted from random mutations that sometimes happen to
be adaptive a) true b) false
Non Ionizing radiation does not induce mutations except for a)
ultrasound b) microwave c) fluorescent light d) ultraviolet
light

taste; it is the second most frequent cause of lung cancer after
cigarette smoking a) carbon dioxide b) helium c) radon d) zenon

phenomena, best describes a) the scientific method. b) applied
research c) open experiments. d) basic research
During G2 (gap 2) of Interphase: a) the cell membrane pinches
off to form two daughter cells b) the cell grows slightly and
prepares for nuclear division c) the cell doubles in size and
prepares for cytokinesis d) the cell prepares for chromosome (DNA)
replication
Synapses and crossing-over takes place in a) prophase I of
meiosis I b) prophase II of meiosis II c) both prophase I and
prophase II d) anaphase I of meiosis I
