Choose the correct statements:
I. Binding of mRNA to the ribosome is loose and reversible.
II. The ribosome, which is composed of tRNA and proteins, consists of a small and large subunit.
III. Each of the 20 amino acids has a minimum of one specific tRNA molecule.
IV. tRNAMET binds to the first codon (AUG) - this is called the START codon.
V. The second tRNA binds to the second codon so that their attached monosaccharides are next to each other
VI. The newly formed polypeptide may undergo post-transcriptional modification.
(1) I, III and IV

DNA fingerprinting works because:
(1) Genes containing the same alleles make it simple to compare different individuals

(2) PCR allows amplification of proteins from single cells

(3) There are multiple alleles for some DNA sequences, making it possible to obtain unique patterns for each individual

(4) DNA in the skin cells is very diverse

DNA replication in eukaryotes differs from replication in bacteria because:
(1) Synthesis of the new DNA strand is from 3' to 5' in eukaryotes and from 5' to 3' in bacteria

(2) Synthesis of the new DNA strand is from 5' to 3' in eukaryotes and from 3' to 5' in bacteria

(3) There are many replication forks in each eukaryotic chromosome and only one in bacterial DNA

(4) Synthesis of the new DNA strand is from 5' to 3' in eukaryotes and is random in prokaryotes

You have analyzed the DNA isolated from a newly discovered virus and found that its base composition is 32% A, 17% C, 32% G, and 19% T. What would be a reasonable explanation of this observation?
(1) The virus must be extraterrestrial

(2) In some viruses, double-stranded DNA is made up of base pairs containing two purines or two pyrimidines

(3) Some of the T was converted to C during the isolation procedure

(4) The genome of the phage is single-stranded not double-stranded
