Bac Série D Côte d'Ivoire Practice Questions - Baccalauréat Série D (Sciences de la Vie et de la Terre) - Côte d'Ivoire Exam - Bac Série D Côte d'Ivoire Practice Questions - Baccalauréat Série D (Sciences de la Vie et de la Terre)

Question 1

A sample of double-stranded DNA extracted from eukaryotic cell nuclei is analyzed and found to contain 22% adenine. According to Chargaff's rules of base pairing, what is the percentage of cytosine in this DNA sample?

28% 22% 44% 56%

Correct Answer:

28%

Question 2

A segment of a DNA template strand reads: 3'-TAC GGC TTA CGA ATT-5'. During protein synthesis, what is the sequence of the resulting mRNA transcript, and how many amino acids will be incorporated into the peptide chain before termination?

5'-AUG CCG AAU GCU UAA-3'; 5 amino acids 5'-UAC GGC UUA CGA AUU-3'; 4 amino acids 5'-AUG CCG UUA GCU UAA-3'; 3 amino acids 5'-AUG CCG AAU GCU UAA-3'; 4 amino acids

Correct Answer:

5'-AUG CCG AAU GCU UAA-3'; 4 amino acids

Question 3

During eukaryotic DNA replication, what is the primary biochemical role of DNA ligase on the lagging strand?

Unwinding the parental double helix at the replication fork Synthesizing short RNA primers required for polymerase binding Catalyzing the formation of phosphodiester bonds between adjacent Okazaki fragments Proofreading and removing mismatched nucleotides via 3' to 5' exonuclease activity

Correct Answer:

Catalyzing the formation of phosphodiester bonds between adjacent Okazaki fragments

Question 4

A point mutation in the coding sequence of a gene replaces the codon 5'-UAC-3' (encoding Tyrosine) with 5'-UAA-3'. What type of mutation is this, and what is its expected phenotypic impact on the polypeptide?

Silent mutation; no change in polypeptide length or sequence Missense mutation; substitution of a single amino acid with altered folding Frameshift mutation; alteration of the entire downstream reading frame Nonsense mutation; premature termination resulting in a truncated, nonfunctional protein

Correct Answer:

Nonsense mutation; premature termination resulting in a truncated, nonfunctional protein

Question 5

The genetic code is described as 'degenerate' or 'redundant'. What does this property mean in molecular biology?

Multiple distinct codons can code for the same amino acid A single codon can code for multiple different amino acids depending on cellular context Non-coding introns are removed during post-transcriptional splicing The genetic code degrades over evolutionary time across different species

Correct Answer:

Multiple distinct codons can code for the same amino acid
