This quiz asks random questions from the field of molecular biology and biology. Please don't be scared away... MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
BTW, I am NOT obsessed with ducks or biology.

1

What is translation?
- Translation is when DNA is used to make messenger RNA.
- Do wolves actually howl at the moon? What about werewolves... I'm starting to be scared...
- Translation is when information from messenger RNA is used to make proteins.
- When words in one language are told in another, in a more confusing way.
- Translation is when information from messenger DNA is used to make RNA.
2

What is a codon?
- A sequence of amino acids which is used to regulate transfer RNA.
- An enzyme. GET ME OUT OF HERE!!!!!!!!! I AM BEING RIPPED APART BY BLOODTHIRSTY ZOMBIES!!!!
- A sequence of three nucleotides, used to make one amino acid.
3

What was discovered by Watson and Crick on April 25, 1953?
- The structural weaknesses of ribonucleic acid
- Ooh, SHINY! Wait, where'd the ducks go?
- The structure of deoxyribonucleic acid... DUH!
- Yes, tell me this information now, or your brains will be blown out... *Points a machine gun at the hostage's head *
4

What is the equation for photosynthesis in plants?
- C6H12O6 + 6 O2 ---> 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + Light Energy
- See those ducks spinning around my head... Wait... Huh?
- 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + Light Energy ---> C6H12O6 + 6 O2
- Plants refuse to perform photosynthesis...
5

What is a restriction endonuclease? **HINT - NOT banana peel
- Enzyme that helps digest cereal...
- Helps release Cytochrome C which sets off a chain reaction that stops cellular respiration.
- BANANA PEEL!!!!
- An enzyme which cuts double - stranded DNA at specific, often palindromic sequences.
- APPLE PIE!!!!!
6

Both of the nucleic acids - RNA and DNA - have sugar-phosphate backbones. But which one of these contains the deoxyribose sugar?
- What the *Bleep * is a nucleic acid?
- Wild monkeys... I seriously hate this quiz...
- RNA
- DNA
