A chromosomes Blysosomes Cenzymes
D peroxisomes
6. DNA contains the instructions for making what other biomolecule?
A lipids
B carbohydrates C polysaccharides D proteins
7. How is this information carried within the DNA?
A Along the sugar-phosphate backbone
C By the arrangement of the sugars
B Between the peptide bonds
D in the sequence of nitrogen bases
8. While DNA is found in all cells, in eukaryotic cells the DNA is found inside of the -
B vacuole
C nucleus
D Golgi body
9. The information in DNA is written according to the genetic code. The genetic code is used to
translate the information in DNA into a specific protein. The genetic code is -
A unique to each individual species
C unique to each family of organisms
B the same for all living things
D different for every single living thing
10. The genetic code is used for translating the information from DNA into a protein. This
means that the sequence of nitrogen bases are coding for --
B monosaccharides C disaccharides D amino acids
11. Most scientists believe that the genetic code provides evidence that all organisms are
related. This is primarily because --
C some species use similar codes
A all living things use the same basic code
D every species has some form of code
A fatty acids
B each species code is a little different
