3 multiple choice questions drawn from
the material covered by the exam. In the case of exam 1, topics
correspond to lecture material (but not really to chapters in the text)
are listed below. Each question must have 5 possible answers. The
correct answer must be indicated (the easiest way is to put a symbol
such as * next to the letter, or to circle the letter by hand if you
prefer.) Please do NOT put an answer key list at the end.
1 point for each group of 3 multiple choice questions
Topics (9):
Chapter 9: DNA Structure and
Replication
Chapter 10: Gene Action: From DNA
to Protein
Chapter 11: regulation of gene
activity during development and in different tissues (selected topics
in chapter)
Chapter 17, 18 selected topics related
to
immunity, the genetics of antibodies, monoclonal antibodies, cancer
Chapter 19: genetic technologies, patenting, amplifying, modifying
DNA; monitoring gene function
Chapter 20: screening, testing, treating genetic disorder
Chapter 22: genomics, sequencing, etc.
current and future technologies, use of DNA technologies to study
genetics
current and future technologies, use of DNA technologies to
manipulate genetics: vectors, etc.
You may work on
these assignments in your study groups,
but each
student is responsible, individually, for completing each assignment.
If they are handed in jointly, all names MUST appear on the assignment,
and there MUST be a commensurate multiple of the assigned questions (
e.g. if two people work together => 6 multiple choice questions per
chapter/topic).
