2. What are the repeating subunits called that make up DNA?
Nucleotides

4. Name the 4 nitrogen bases on DNA (spelled out – spelling counts on the test).
Adenine (A) Thymine (T) Guanine (G) Cytosine (C)
![Page 6: DNA, RNA and Protein Synthesis Review](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062323/56815a6a550346895dc7c1cc/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
5. What scientists made the first ever model of DNA as a double helix?
James Watson and Francis Crick
![Page 7: DNA, RNA and Protein Synthesis Review](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062323/56815a6a550346895dc7c1cc/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
6. What is Chargaff’s rule?
Chargaff found that for a particular species, the concentration of adenine is roughly equal to the concentration of thymine (A=T) and cytosine is roughly equal to guanine (G=C)
This helped found the base pair rule, that A always pairs with T, and C always pairs with G
![Page 8: DNA, RNA and Protein Synthesis Review](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062323/56815a6a550346895dc7c1cc/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
In the DNA of a particular species, there is 26% adenine
Since A = T, A. Thymine = 26% (roughly) To figure out C and G, subtract from 100%100 – 26 – 26 = 48, then divide equally into C
and G B. Cytosine = 24% C. Guanine = 24%
*Be prepared to do problems without a calculator on the test

14. Define semi-conservative replication. (in DNA coloring packet!)
DNA saves or conserves 1 strand to produce 1 new strand
Produces 2 identical double-stranded DNA molecules, each containing 1 “original” strand, and 1 “new” strand
![Page 17: DNA, RNA and Protein Synthesis Review](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062323/56815a6a550346895dc7c1cc/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

18. Why aren’t many genes located on the tips, or telomeres, of chromosomes? What does telomerase do to help with this?
Telomeres are susceptible to damage, and thus don’t contain many genes
Telomerase is an enzyme that adds short, repeated nucleotides to the ends so that if damage occurs, the chromosomes are not affected, since the sequences don’t contain genes
