COURSE NAME Biology 103 Use the following information to answer questions 1 and 2 below. *** Labrador Centronuclear Myopathy (CNM) is genetic disease in Labrador retrievers that results in insufficient muscle function, poor muscles tone, exercise intolerance, and awkward gait. CNM only develops in dogs that are homozygous recessive (pp) for the PTPLA gene. You are a dog breeder and there is one puppy in a new litter that has CNM. Neither of the puppy’s parents have CNM. 1. What are the parents’ genotypes for the gene responsible for CNM? A) pp and pp B) Pp and Pp C) PP and PP D) PP and Pp 2. Which of the following best describes the mother’s genotype? A) Homozygous recessive B) Heterozygous C) Homozygous dominant D) Heterozygous and Homozygous dominant 3. In biological systems most of the original energy from the sun is lost as? A) Light B) Kinetic energy of motion C) Heat D) Potential chemical energy 4. All of the following are common or recurrent themes in biology except? A) Organisms grow, develop, and reproduce B) Function determines structure C) Matter is recycled while energy flows through living systems D) Living organisms maintain homeostasis E) Evolutionary processes explain both the unity and adaptive diversity of life 5. In the following chemical reaction, what is carbon dioxide (CO2)? Organic molecule + 6O2 ⇨ 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy A) independent variable B) product C) substrate Page 2 of 11 D) enzyme Page 3 of 11 6. Which of the following is true regarding chemical bonds? a) Chemical bonds are an unbreakable union of two atoms b) Chemical bonds are an energetic interaction, or relationship, that occurs between two atoms c) Chemical bonds are a physical linkage of two atoms d) Chemical bonds are the result of energy emitted by radioactive atoms 7. The genome of the bacterium, Helicobacter pylori, is composed of 19% guanine. Which of the following must also be true of its double stranded genome? A) 19% cytosine B) 62?enine C) 31% thymine D) 19% uracil 8. You observe the following outside your window: A chipmunk is munching away on a bean plant in your garden when a black rat snake grabs and eats the chipmunk. What is the chipmunk in this situation? A) predator B) primary consumer C) prey D) secondary consumer E) both B and C 9. The template strand of DNA contains the nucleotide base sequence ATGCCA. The nucleotide sequence of the transcribed mRNA strand would be . 1 (a) ATGCCA 2 (b) ACCGTA 3 (c) UACGGU 4 (d) TACGGT 5 (e) ATCCCT 10. The addition of the green fluorescent protein gene from a jellyfish to the genome of the zebra fish in order to produce a fluorescent green colored fish is an example of what? a) genetic engineering b) genetic drift c) evolution d) selective breeding 11. Cellular respiration occurs in which types of cells? a. Bacterial b. Animal c. Plant d. Protist e. All of the above 12. Dr. Kitty Hauke is studying lobsters in Maine. She noticed that over several years the average length of pincers had increased within this population. She hypothesized that having larger
