Q

DIFFERENCS BETWEEN DNA REPLICATION AND TRANSCRIPTION

A

-only small section of DNA unzips during transcription
-Both strands act as template in replication
-RNA vs DNA free floating nucleotides
-RNA vs DNA polymerase
-Different helicase enzymes
-Products are two new daughter strands in Replication whereas only one new mRNA strand in transcription
-mRNA leaves nucleus whereas the new DNA strand remains bound to template strand in replication

Q

Discuss implications of the over use of antibiotics when people don’t show symptoms

A

-When exposed to antibiotic, most resistant survive
-Less competition = make resistant population

-antibiotic is selective pressure
-only some bacteria have resistance

Q

explain why toxins produced from three different strains of bacterium are described of being “immunologically distinct”

A

-Toxins produced by each chain will be slightly different
-each toxin have different 3D shape
-Toxin acts as/is antigen
-immune response determined by shape of antigen
