The calcitonin gene can encode either the hormone calcitonin or a protein called calcitonin-gene-related peptide depending on which 3′ cleavage site is used. In the thyroid gland, cleavage and polyadenylation occur after the fourth exon leading to calcitonin production. However, in the brain, the exact same transcript is cleaved after the sixth exon yielding calcitonin-gene-related peptide. This is possible because of a process known as:

Bonus question: the image from the question above could NOT represent a prokaryotic transcript because prokaryotic transcripts lack 5′ UTR or 3′ UTR

Scientists have developed novel techniques that allow them to visualize the process of DNA replication in vitro. What conclusions can you draw about the DNA replication process shown below?

The following four questions (A-D)  are based on the scenario below: A scientist has isolated a molecule of nucleic acid but is unsure whether it is DNA or RNA. She investigates the features present in the molecule to determine its identity. A. The scientist observes that the molecule contains both a promoter and a terminator. What type of molecule is she examining?

Use the information below to answer the following 3 questions: You are a researcher studying the effects of a treatment on expression of Gene X in mice. You expose a few mice to the treatment while keeping others as a control. After a few days, you obtain the methylation status of CpG islands found at 4 different locations, near the transcription initiation site of Gene X.  The data from 3 different repetitions is shown below.
