Genes & Genomes exam thread

Hey guys, this is the place to compare our multiple choice answers for past exams (2010, 2008, and there was even one from 1998 on the unimelb library page).

Has anyone done 2010 question 31 or 2010 q35? I can't find the 6bp palindrome in 35 :S

2008.

Q28: C

I agree it is C, lecture 33 slide 9 basically gives you the answer.

Q32: I have no freaking idea... Did we go though this in our lectures??? :S

2010 exam

Q28: A

Yea i remember reading that to increase copy number, reduce size of the plasmid.

Q31: D

I'm not sure about this either!! Wow the questions you've presented so far are pretty hard.....I'm hoping you only picked out the hardest ones :( I havne't looked at the whole exam yet.

Maybe Golden can help.

LOL btw i can't find the 1998 exam on the LMS :( Will have to search for it later somehow.

But for now, i'm actually enjoying memorising the step of glycolysis!! IT's surprisingly fun haha
