66. Bacteria containing recombinant plasmids are often identified by which process?
(A) examining the cells with an electron microscope
(B) using radioactive tracers to locate the plasmids
(C) exposing the bacteria to an antibiotic that kills cells lacking the plasmid
(D) removing the DNA of all cells in a culture to see which cells have plasmids
(E) producing antibodies specific for each bacterium containing a recombinant plasmid.

62. Which of the following statements about the lysogenic cycle of lambda (λ) phage is incorrect? (A) After infection the viral genes immediately turn the host cell into a lambda-producing factory, and the host cell then lyses. (B) Most of the prophage genes are silenced by the product of a particular prophage gene. (C) The phage genome replicates along with the host genome. (D) Certain environmental triggers can cause the phage to exit the host genome, switching from the lysogenic to the lytic cycle. (E) The phage DNA is incorporated by genetic recombination (crossing over) into a specific site on the host cell's DNA.

63. Which of the following statements concerning the eukaryotic chromosome is false? (A) It is composed of DNA and protein. (B) The nucleosome is the most basic structural subunit. (C) The number of genes on each chromosome is different in different cell types. (D) It consists of a single linear molecule of double-stranded DNA. (E) Active transcription occurs on euchromatin.

64. Why do histones bind tightly to DNA? (A) Histones are positively charged, and DNA is negatively charged. (B) Histones are negatively charged, and DNA is positively charged. (C) Both histones and DNA are strongly hydrophobic. (D) Histones are covalently linked to the DNA. (E) Histones are highly hydrophobic, and DNA is hydrophilic.

65. What is the enzymatic function of restriction enzymes? (A) to add new nucleotides to the growing strand of DNA (B) to join nucleotides during replication (C) to join nucleotides during transcription (D) to cleave nucleic acids at specific sites (E) to repair breaks in sugar-phosphate backbones

67. A eukaryotic protein can be made in bacteria by inserting the gene encoding the protein into a(n) (A) protein plasmid. (B) expression vector. (C) yeast artificial chromosome (YAC). (D) PCR vector. (E) restriction plasmid.

72. Even in Darwin's time, the blending hypothesis was incompatible with observed facts. If the blending hypothesis were true, then what should one expect to observe over the course of generations? (A) Phenotypic polymorphisms should increase. (B) Genetic variation should increase. (C) Members of a breeding population should become more uniform in phenotype. (D) Neutral variation should decrease. (E) Genetic polymorphisms should increase.
