A) bacteria have a greater percentage of thymine and adenine than cytosine and guanine B) percentage of adenine is greater than the percentage of guanine in all the organisms C) mammals have a greater percentage of guanine and cytosine than adenine and thymine D) percentage of purines is almost equal to the percentage of pyrimidines in all the organisms 7. The data table below summarizes the percentage composition of samples of DNA taken from several species of organisms. One conclusion that can be made based on this data table is that the A) It changes every time it replicates. B) It determines the characteristics that will be inherited. C) It is exactly the same in all organisms. D) It directly controls the synthesis of starch within a cell. 8. The type of molecule represented below is found in organisms. Which statement correctly describes the sequence of bases found in this type of molecule? A) DNA, only B) Messenger RNA, only C) Transfer RNA, only D) DNA, messenger RNA, and transfer RNA 9. Which nucleic acid carries instructions from the nucleus to the cytoplasm? A) messenger RNA, transfer RNA, DNA, polypeptide B) DNA, messenger RNA, polypeptide, transfer RNA C) transfer RNA, polypeptide, DNA, messenger RNA, DNA D) DNA, messenger RNA, transfer RNA, polypeptide 10. The correct order of molecules involved in protein synthesis is
11. Complete the chart below by identifying two cell structures involved in protein synthesis and stating how each structure functions in protein synthesis. 12. Base your answer to the following question on the diagram of a cell below. Describe how structures 1 and 2 interact in the process of protein synthesis. 13. Base your answer to the following question on the passage below and on your knowledge of biology. Inherited instructions control the color patterns of snakes. Some snakes that are not poisonous have colors that resemble the patterns on poisonous snakes. Predators avoid eating harmless snakes that have color patterns similar to those of the poisonous snakes. The results of a recent study indicate that predators in areas that have only harmless snakes do not avoid attacking snakes that have color patterns similar to poisonous snakes. Identify the structure that contains the inherited instructions that determine the different color patterns in these snakes.
