What is the role of RNA polymerase?

A
It creates the DNA strand.
B
It bonds the DNA strand.

Which describes a promoter?

A
the first part of an operon that regulates where, when, and to what level a gene is expressed
B
the part of an operon that, if attached by a repressor protein, suppresses the expression of a gene
C
a cluster of genes that are expressed or repressed as a group
D
an enzyme that helps DNA unzip prior to transcription
8

The study of Escherichia coli (E. coli) led researchers to new experimental designs for studying operons. Which experimental design did the scientists use?

A
Used a microscope to observe cell division to determine the structure of operons.
B
Tested the response of E. coli to a variety of chemicals to determine the number of operons that are present.
C
Inserted the operons from one organism into another to determine the mechanism of operon expression.
D
Read the genome sequence to determine the quantity and organization of operons.

Which occurs during translation?

A
mRNA is created by using a DNA template.
B
mRNA codons are joined by tRNA anticodons to assemble amino acids to form a protein.
C
Protein is formed when a polypeptide chain is broken apart and released from ribosome.
D
One strand of DNA is copied into a strand of rRNA.
