Preface 01 There are no tricks to this exam just as there were no tricks to previous exams. All questions are based on your homework problems, meaning completing and understanding HW is essentially studying/reviewing for the final. That being said, I understand how anxious y’all can be, so here’s a presentation that will hopefully ease your worries and guide your preparation for the exam. Most of the concepts and practice questions I’ve included are problems that I personally remember being tested on when I took Dr. Fischer’s genetics final in spring ‘23, or questions I’ve seen on exam after becoming a UGCA. You guys will do amazing on the final, please remember to take care of yourselves, and thank you for a great semester! Key Concepts 02 RF less than 50% = linked Linkage = no more independent assortment (no more 1:1:1:1 ratio of gamete types) What does DNA replication look like? Draw it out! DNA Digestion Cutting DNA using restriction enzymes. Blunt ends → (5’) even (3’) 5’ Sticky end → (5’) ^ heavier (3’) 3’ Sticky end → (5’) heavier ^ (3’) Recognition sites. Finding one → (¼)n Length → 4n # Fragments → genome/length 03 Practice Problems CH 1, Q 18 CH 2, Q 10 CH 5, Q 10 CH 4, Q 17 CH 2, Q 42 CH 5, Q 8 CH 7, SP II CH 8, Q 5 CH 8, Q 17 CH 4, Q 40 CH 9, Q 5 CH 9, Q 20 CH 9, Q 12-13 CH 10, Q 22 CH 10, Q 2 CH 12, Q 38 CH 12, Q 25 CH 14, Q 19 Same exact problem as in the slide above, but the new context is a deletion instead of a tandem duplication. CH 14, Q 9 Which mom is Dolly a clone of (mom 1, 2, or 3)? CH 15, Q 22 / Class: 20, QotD #1 CH 15, Q 2 Ask Yourself: 1) Can transcription occur without a promoter? 2) Can transcription occur without an enhancer? 3) If transcription occurs, will there be sufficient levels of expression under the following conditions? a) Promoter, no enhancer. b) Enhancer, no promotor. c) Promoter + enhancer. CH 19, Q 36 CH 21, Q 38 04 Alternative resources Reminder that combined office hours are on Wednesday, 12/11, from 11 AM - 4:30 PM in WEL 2.140. Exam will take place in WCP 1.402.
