Nice test, dunno if i did well tho

 

[HoangDDS]

Nice test, dunno if i did well tho

I got all the same answers as osimsDDS. I wasn't sure about the gibberellins question though. I would've went with all of the above. After a quick check on wiki, I couldn't find any connection between gibberellins and phloem, so I think osimsDDS, you're right.

Go Sharks! -maybe next year...again

 

[theedaddy77]

yeah gibbernalls thingy also does stem elongation so it has to be E or a...

 

[TarheelKid24]

From what I read in Schaum's, Gibberellins do all of the above. Auxins stimulate the production of Xylem.

 

[Glycogen]

2)Which of the following is false of the anterior pituitary gland ?
a. It is also called the adenohypophysis
b. It does not realease oxytoxin or ADH
c. It release of hormones is independent of any other organ or structure
d. It is situated by the intermediate and posterior lobes
e. Two of the above are false.

I think this is not the case because AP is indirectly is under control of hypothalamus.This is what wiki says:

Under the influence of the hypothalamus, the anterior pituitary produces and secretes several peptide hormones that regulate many physiological processes including stress, growth, and reproduction.

I might be wrong but what about wiki!?

 

[Glycogen]

The other thing,I read somewhere that RBC actually has mito and therefore DNA which will be inherited from mother!
I don't know how this can be true since we know for sure RBC doesn't have any organelle!!
Any explanation!

I just used my knowledge of menstraul cycle to figure this one out, since GnRH is produced by the hypothalamus and stimulates the anterior pituitary to secrete FSH or LH, then the anterior pituitary must be dependent on the hypothalamus...im not saying it is for every single hormone but it is at least for FSH and LH...so thats why its false because it is not independent, its dependent on the hypothalamus...hope that made sense

Pretty cool test, although I think your wording was difficult to understant. Also, the protostome question, should be referring to mouth and anus, not "head/tail". Post the answers man so we can check ourselves.

[DRHOYA]

Ahh crap, I forgot to count a few ATP's from the substrate level phorphorylation in Kreb's cycle before ETC.

 

[osimsDDS]

Ahh crap, I forgot to count a few ATP's from the substrate level phorphorylation in Kreb's cycle before ETC.

also base linkage is hydrogen, nucleotide linkage is phosphodiester bond....glycosidic linkage is 2 sugars...

FOr this question , i really do not agree with the answer , I think b could be the aswer , because if both alleles of female have are recessive , it will cause death in females too . Any explanation ???

Nucleotides are linked by :
a. Hydrogen bonds
b. Phosphodiester bonds
c. Covalent bonds

This question is so weird , my answer was phosphodiester bond . But , the answer is hydrogen bonds , any help?

b. 8
c.36
d.48
e.40

Enough for now , i will post answer and more questions later . Enjoy studying DAT.

U guys are so smart , most of you did good jobs.Thanks

 

[phungy]

Hmm..wiki says phosphodiester bonds are covalent bonds. A nucleotide is a nitrogenous base, a sugar, and a phosphate group. The backbone has phosphodiester bonds but the bases are held by hydrogen bonding. Bad question?

 

[DRHOYA]

yeah thats what I was thinking. I didn't even think on that question, just went right to H-bond. ?? Anyone else.

 

[sweetpea2]

Yea i think nucleotides are definitely connected by phosphodiester bonds, this forms the backbone. THe bases, however, are held together by hydrogen bonds

 

[osimsDDS]

1000000000000% sure nucleotides are connected by phosphodiester bonds, only the bases are connected via H-bonds...

 

[DRHOYA]

Yea i think nucleotides are definitely connected by phosphodiester bonds, this forms the backbone. THe bases, however, are held together by hydrogen bonds

Ok, so when say....C is bound to G in a triple bond and A to T in a double bond in DNA, those bonds are H-bonds. But the sugar-phosphate backbone is connected by phosphodiester bonds. Ok got it. Thanks so much!

This is b/c the question said "nucleotides" and not the individual bases.

 

[TexasDent]

Which of the following is true concerning a sex linked disorder that is lethal in infancy ?
a. Females are unable to carry the gene
b. It will cause death in both males and females
c. Male chidren of male carriers will be carriers
d. It will cause death only in males
FOr this question , i really do not agree with the answer , I think b could be the aswer , because if both alleles of female have are recessive , it will cause death in females too . Any explanation ???

Well you have to think about it... How could a male carry the allele(XY) if it is fatal...It would kill him before he could reproduce. So this means that the allele could only be passed on by the mother. So, a daughter could get one recessive allele from her mother but she would only get the normal dominant allele from her father and survive as a carrier.
Great question though!

 

[wkawk2416]

so, not only palelete or whatever

but damaged tissue also produce components that are nessesary to clot the blood.

wasn't sure about that

 

[theedaddy77]

nucleotides is a whole unit therefore the units are connected by phosphodiester bond. NUCLEOSIDE notice it is different is just the the unit minus the phosphate therefore phosphdiester bond not possible therefore talking about hydrogen bonding......
