Your Thoughts On Biology 2010 Exam 2

yeah similar to what you wrote, that the genes are still existant thus he is still able to produce the proteins required therefore he has a normal phenotype.

[pi]

i wrote that the moved genes still produced the same functional proteins despite the translocation, and hence, no phenotypic differences (ie. normal).

is that OK?

[onerealsmartass]

yeah pretty much what i wrote, my teacher said i shuold get full marks for it unless they wanted some other ridiculous answer (:

well, is your pikachu phenotypically normal?

[onerealsmartass]

lmao.

not really


but is the answer OK?

[onerealsmartass]

yeah it is

Wow everyone is saying that it was easy. i thought it was pretty good as well. Does that mean if everybody does good the A+ cut-off will be higher?

[bar0029]

yes

[Lsta061]

ARRRGGGHHH im screwed
hopefully i did good enough to get a good mark

[thushan]

Don't be too disheartened - it was easy, but tricky - so A+ won't be that much higher...it'll be below 62.5

i think for that question i only wrote..although a translocatoin took place, the genetic material will still be in tact and therefore functional

Yeah thats the answer.
The proteins can still be coded for correctly , thus the phenotype will stay the same.

[Lsta061]

yeah i guess so.... we'll have to wait and see

SO one of the bio exams i think had a question about hybrids and it mentioned an animal called a "zonkey"....

I thought they were making it up...

Its legit lol

Anyone know when the examiners report is out?
