Question 2

What is the correct pairing? Match the cellular processes with the products that they produce.

Question 3

True or False? Replication rarely makes mistakes on copying DNA but in case it makes mistakes, it has proofreading mechanism that corrects the error by following the specific base pairing A-T and C-G.

Accepted Answer

true

Answer

false

Question 4

True or False? Genetic information being carried by mRNA is same information about making protein stored in DNA; they are just different when it comes to thymine and uracil.

Accepted Answer

true

Answer

Question 6

What is the correct pairing? Match the enzymes with their functions in genetic engineering.

Question 7

What is the proper pairing? Match the procedures in genetic engineering with their definitions.

Question 8

What do you call the organisms that received additional genes in their DNA from other organisms through genetic engineering? _______ _______ Organisms (or simply transgenics)

Accepted Answer

GENETICALLY MODIFIED

Question 9

Which of the following can be a benefit from development of GMO?

Accepted Answer
