REVIEW EXERCISES

Exercise 1. Read the following sentences. Define the types of Conditionals and translate them into Russian.

1. Marked change in RNAP of the system would be expected if the DNAP increase were to reflect the increase in bacterial number. 2. Over most of the area of England, there is little doubt, oak forest would again extend, perhaps in a couple of centuries, if the country were to be completely abandoned by man and his flocks and herds. 3. If fungi and bacteria were not to be active in the destruction of leaves at the end of the growing season, the dead leaves would fall to the ground and eventually would accumulate to such an extent that the tree might be completely covered. 4. If account is taken of the illustration given in figure 9, both the principles will apply. 5. Provided a fourth molecule of water were added to the left in figure 17, an almost equilateral triangle would appear. 6. Were several small bivalents present, they were to be found in the center of the plate. 7. If we knew how the gene arose, we probably should know how life itself arose from the inorganic. 8. Unless cystitis sets in, which is frequently the case, the animal may live in spite of the disturbance of some functions. 9. Were the H-O-H angle equal to 120^o, this could give rise to a monomolecular layer of H₂O molecules. 10. On condition all these factors were taken into account, the 1.4 axis would be calculated as 5.15A, rather than 5.94A. 11. Were it not for the ability of non–chlorophyllous plants to decompose waste organic material, the earth in a very short time would be covered to an astonishing depth with an accumulation of vegetable debris. 12. Provided all particles keep as far away as possible from their neighbours, a regular arrangement will necessarily result owing to particle morphology. 13. This sort of thing would hardly be expected, were crossing over to take place in the ordinary manner as, for example, in Drosophila. 14. If we were asked what influence a given gene had, all by itself, on development, we would not be able to answer the question. 15. Should evisceration be performed in addition to the administration of an anesthetic, the following course of events may be envisaged. 16. If we had given the culture the very high dose initially, we should most likely have killed it completely, since there would have been little likelihood that the original culture would have contained a cell in which several mutations had occurred at the same time. 17. This persistence of added or lost chromosomal material would hardly be expected provided the chromosome number were determined by the nature of the cell. 18. This is precisely the result, one would expect on the basis of chromosomal segregation during gametogenesis provided the genes in question resided on different chromosomes. 19. No such degree of differentiation and specialization of tissues as we see in higher organisms could be attained, were it not for adequate means of keeping various parts fully correlated in action.
