Biology Exam 12.04.2024

[Strudlente]

Ten questions (not verbatim). Apparently there was more than one version of the exam, mine was version 1.
The first two questions are new, I think:
- What is chymosin? Origin and use in biotechnology?
- What is transformation in biotechnology?
- Miller-Urey-experiment and its conclusions
- Definition of the habitable zone. What are the two prerequisites for life?
- Describe the cell-cycle (phases). During which phase does DNA replication occur?
- Assessment of eco-toxicological risk (max. 4 sentences)
- Baltimore classification of viruses (max. 5 sentences, bullet points)
- Chromosome mutations: mechanisms and importance in evolution
- X-linked inheritance + example
- Secondary structure of proteins
