1 Different forms of a gene
allele Different forms of a gene allele

2 Offspring = tt ? Both parents contribute
Recessive allele Offspring = tt ? Both parents contribute Recessive allele

3 Have 2 identical alleles for a trait
homozygous Have 2 identical alleles for a trait homozygous

4 Independent assortment
During gamete formation, genes for dif. Traits separate without influencing others (2 words) Independent assortment

5 One allele for a gene is not completely dominant over the other
Incomplete dominance One allele for a gene is not completely dominant over the other Incomplete dominance

6 4 dif. Versions of the gene for rabbit coat color
Multiple alleles 4 dif. Versions of the gene for rabbit coat color Multiple alleles

7 2 haploid cells Meiosis I produces 2 haploid cells

8 2 diploid cells Mitosis produces 2 diploid cells

9 Variation in human skin color ex. Of?
Polygenic traits Variation in human skin color ex. Of? Polygenic traits

10 Gametes are produced by what process
meiosis Gametes are produced by what process meiosis

11 Homologous pair of chromosomes each with 2 chromatids
tetrad Homologous pair of chromosomes each with 2 chromatids tetrad

12 2 genes rarely assort independently, so they are located
Close to each other 2 genes rarely assort independently, so they are located Close to each other

13 A good molecule for storing info
DNA A good molecule for storing info DNA

14 Can be joined together in any order like letters of the alphabet
DNA Can be joined together in any order like letters of the alphabet DNA

15 Before cell division, this happens
DNA replication Before cell division, this happens DNA replication

16 What do bacteriophages infect
bacteria What do bacteriophages infect bacteria

17 What organism has DNA in a nucleus
eukaryotes What organism has DNA in a nucleus eukaryotes

18 During DNA replication, what binds with what
A-T and C-G During DNA replication, what binds with what A-T and C-G

19 This results in 2 DNA molecules; one new and one old
DNA replication This results in 2 DNA molecules; one new and one old DNA replication

20 Which cells in the accurate transmission of info most important
Sex cells Which cells in the accurate transmission of info most important Sex cells

21 Deoxyribose and phosphate group
What 2 things are needed for a cytosine nucleotide Deoxyribose and phosphate group

22 Rule Tells us % of Adenine = % of thymine
Base pairing Rule Tells us % of Adenine = % of thymine Base pairing

23 Unlike DNA, RNA contains what?
uracil Unlike DNA, RNA contains what? uracil

24 mRNA Type of RNA that brings info (from genetic code) from nucleus to rest of cell mRNA

25 In transcription; the RNA is _______ to DNA
complementary In transcription; the RNA is _______ to DNA complementary

26 Cell uses a mRNA to code to make proteins
translation Cell uses a mRNA to code to make proteins translation

27 Genes contain instructions to make what?
proteins Genes contain instructions to make what? proteins

28 A cell reads instructions in DNA to make a protein
Gene expression A cell reads instructions in DNA to make a protein Gene expression

29 eukaryotes What type of cell has transcription in the nucleus and translation in the cytoplasm eukaryotes

30 Most mutations have ______ effect on an organism
No (none) Most mutations have ______ effect on an organism No (none)

31 Human females produce egg cells that have _________ chromosome
One X Human females produce egg cells that have _________ chromosome One X

32 How many chromosomes are shown in a normal human karyotype
46 How many chromosomes are shown in a normal human karyotype 46

33 Sex-linked genes are located on what chromosome/s
X and Y Sex-linked genes are located on what chromosome/s X and Y

34 The failure of chromosomes to separate during meiosis is called
nondisjunction The failure of chromosomes to separate during meiosis is called nondisjunction

35 X chromosome This contains genes vital for normal development (no baby has been born without it) X chromosome

36 If nondisjunction occurs during meiosis, some gametes may have this
Extra copies of genes If nondisjunction occurs during meiosis, some gametes may have this Extra copies of genes

37 Project is an attempt to sequence the DNA of every human gene
Human Genome Project is an attempt to sequence the DNA of every human gene Human Genome

38 proteins More than 40% of ______ coded for in the human genome are similar to those found in other organisms proteins

39 Amino acid 64 codons & 20 amino acids = Several different codons can specify the same ___________ Amino acid

40 This leads to bigger and stronger plants compared to diploid plants
Polyploidy This leads to bigger and stronger plants compared to diploid plants Polyploidy
