You are the lucky student of a wacky professor who develops a time machine and he asks if you will test it with him. You get in and there’s an immediate glitch. The read out indicates that  you have traveled back 80 million years ago, and are now stuck in the Mesozoic era.  Which of the following would you most likely see when you step out of your time machine?

During transcription in a eukaryotic cell, a segment of DNA known as a gene opens up, and a copy of it is made, called a messenger RNA (mRNA). The mRNA leaves the nucleus through the .  Once it leaves the nucleus, the mRNA enters the organelle adjacent to the nucleus, known as the .At this point, the mRNA is recopied into tranfer RNA (tRNA). In the process of translation, the tRNA becomes attached to the and synthesizes a protein. That protein gets packaged up and leaves through a circular organelle, know as a  and travels to the cis-face of the  , where the protein is modified, stored and eventually leaves from  the trans face. The protein is used within  the cell and eventually loses its functionality and ends up being digested by a circular organelle, the  in a process known as phagocytosis. 

What is the process by which DNA codes for a messenger RNA (mRNA)?

Many amphibian populations have been decimated by a parasitic fungi belonging to which lineage?

Nearly all mushrooms are made up of this group of fungi.

What is the advantage of the the origin of the nucleus according to the leading hypothesis?

Cell walls of fungi are composed primarily of

The mycelium of fungi are made up of these long, branching filaments. What are they called? Note: spelling counts.

You find a green organism in a pond near your house and believe it is a plant, not an alga.  Which line of evidence would definitively support your hypothesis?

Which evidence supports the endosymbiotic hypothesis for the origin of the mitochondrion?
