3. Each strand of DNA consists of three billion base pairs. Other than sex and blood cells, every cell in your body is making approx. 2,000 proteins every second. 75 trillion cells in your body

17. Semiconservative replication would produce two copies that each contained one of the original strands and one new strand. Conservative replication would leave the two original template DNADNA strands together in a double helix and would produce a copy composed of two new strands containing all of the new DNA base pairs. Dispersive replication would produce two copies of the DNA, both containingDNA distinct regions of DNA composed of either both original strands or both new strands

42. To begin translation, the small subunit first identifies, with the help of other protein factors, the precise point in the RNA sequence where it should begin linking amino acids, the building blocks of protein. The small subunit, once bound to the mRNA, is then joined by the large subunit and translation begins.

43. A – amino acid P – making the peptide E- exit

45. The small subunit is involved in decoding the genetic information, while the large subunit has the catalytic activity responsible for peptide bond formation (that is, the joining of new amino acids to the growing protein chain).

46. Translation ------ Making Proteins

49. Order Twists and folds Folds, twists and bonds to self

51. Primary Structure The primary structure of a polypeptide or protein is the sequence of amino acids in the protein. In the case of insulin shown here there are two polypeptide chains in the primary structure. Human Insulin Primary structure. Each three letter abbreviation stands for one of the twenty basic amino acids found in living things: Chain 1 GLY- ILE -VAL- GLU -GLN -CYS -CYS -THR- SER -ILE -CYS- SER -LEU - TYR -GLN -LEU -GLU -ASN -TYR -CYS -ASN Chain 2 PHE -VAL -ASN-GLN -HIS -LEU -CYS- GLY- ASP -HIS – LEU- VAL- GLU- ALA -LEU- TYR -LEU- VAL- CYS- GLY- GLU- ARG -GLY- PHE -PHE -TYR - THR -PRO -LYS -THR

52. Secondary Structure Secondary structure refers to the folding of the chain of amino acids into a helix or a pleated sheet.

53. Tertiary Structure Tertiary structure refers to a higher level of folding

54. Quaternary structure Quaternary structure arises when polypeptide chains are bound together usually by hydrogen bonds. For example hemoglobin the oxygen carrying protein in blood
