Unit 3 Test day

     Today in class we took the Unit 3 test about DNA. The free response covered protein synthesis in which I explained the steps in the synthesis for a eukaryote that goes through transcription, RNA processing and translation. It also had a DNA sequence which we then had to convert into mRNA, then tRNA and then code for its amino acids sequence. I then discussed the inducible operon system that starts off and needs to be turned on. I made a diagram and then explained the reason for the glow in the PGLO lab which contained arabinose. We then had 30 multiple choice questions on DNA, protein synthesis, and topics from Unit 1and 2. After we were finished with the test, we were free to leave.
