Question

(a) A gene ______

- is all the DNA that encodes the sequences of some protein or RNA product
- never has an impact on the organism's phenotype
- that is 1500 bp of genomic DNA will produce a protein 500 amino acids in length
- encodes a single enzyme

(b) regulatory sequences do not include ___

- a signal for termination of DNA repair
- a signal for the start of a gene
- sequences that affect rates of transcription
- a signal for the end of a gene

(c) the major problem associated with intracellular packing of DNA packing is ___

- avoided by having some of the DNA in the form of plasmids
- the fact that the total length og DNA in a cell is many times longer than the dimensions of the cell
- the rigid nature of DNA structure
