Multiple choice/true-false quiz on the 4 types of eukaryotic gene expression control.


Questions and Answers
  • 1. 

    Which of the following is NOT a method of gene expression control in eukaryotes?

    • A.

      Transcriptional

    • B.

      Replicational

    • C.

      Post transcriptional

    • D.

      Translational

    • E.

      Post translational

    Correct Answer
    B. Replicational
  • 2. 

    Which type of gene expression control is related to the rate at which pre-mRNA is converted to mature mRNA.

    • A.

      Transcriptional

    • B.

      Post transcriptional

    • C.

      Translational

    • D.

      Post translational

    Correct Answer
    B. Post transcriptional
    Explanation
    after transcription of the pre-mRNA, the introns must be cut out and the mRNA spliced together along with the addition of end caps.

  • 3. 

    Where does post-translational control take place?

    • A.

      Nucleus

    • B.

      Cytoplasm

    Correct Answer
    B. Cytoplasm
    Explanation
    translation takes place at the ribosomes in the cytoplasm

  • 4. 

    All cells receive a copy of all genes.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Because of this, genes must be able to be turned on or off depending on the type of cell.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    Which of the following is a mechanism that controls the rate of transcriptional control?

    • A.

      Organization of chromatin

    • B.

      DNA polymerase

    • C.

      The presence or absence of an inducer

    Correct Answer
