Biology-Sample Free Response

Below are two sample free response answers from AP Biology, together with the questions.

Question 1

Imagine that we linked the gene that encodes GFP with the genes that encode each of the following proteins in separate cells. For each, suppose we look at a cultured cell expressing the hybrid GFP protein.  What pattern would you expect to see in the cell?  (i.e. Where would the hybrid protein be located within the cell?)

  • Actin
  • ATP synthase
  • RNA polymerase
  • Catalase
