Meiosis creates haploid gametes, whereas mitosis creates _____________ ____________ ___________ ________.
What are genetically identical daughter cells?
100
This is a tool you would use to study the genotypes of the possible children two people might have.
What is a Punnett Square?
100
These are the two driving factors of evolution.
What are Natural Selection and Genetic Drift?
100
This is a pictorial representation of all the organisms in an ecosystem with arrows showing who eats whom.
What is a food web?
100
This is a change in the code of DNA.
What is a mutation?
200
This step of meiosis creates genetic diversity in a population.
What is crossing over?
200
If your allele is red hair your gene might be this.
What is hair color?
200
Climate, competition for resources, predation and geography can all be examples of these.
What are selective pressures?
200
The bottom of the food web, or the organism that brings in the energy is called this.
What is a producer?
200
These are used when a scientist wants to study two genes at the same time and what a couple's possible children might have.
What is a dihybrid cross?
300
You, back when you were one cell, were called this.
What is a zygote?
300
If two parents have genotypes II and ii, these are all the possible genotypes of their offspring.
What is only Ii?
300
After mass extinctions, this process allows species to re-fill empty ecological niches.
What is episodic speciation?
300
These are two chemical cycles that are extremely important to life on earth.
What are carbon and water?
300
This is what is created when two members of different species have offspring.
What is a hybrid?
400
This is the order of the phases of mitosis and one round of meiosis.
What is Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase?
400
If you are a girl and a carrier for hemophilia, but neither of your parents is unaffected, these are their genotypes.
What is XHY(Father) and XHXh (Mother)
400
When two populations haven't occupied the same niche for a long time, speciation may happen by this process when they can no longer mate and produce fertile offspring.
What is reproductive isolation?
400
This is what it's called when a higher-level consumer eats a lower-level one and they cause each other to adapt and each others' populations.
What is a predator/prey relationship?
400
This is a possible consequence of the daughter cells of mitosis not being exactly the same as the parent cell.
What is cancer, cell death, wrong function, etc...?
500
If your chromosomes don't segregate correctly during meiosis you might end up with this chromosomal anomaly.
What is Downs Syndrome (Trisomy 21)
500
This is shown in a dihybrid cross with the numbers 9:3:3:1.
What is phenotypic ratio?
500
This is how one mutation can save an entire species.
What is the process of that mutation creating an allele that is then passed down and spread through the population, and saves those individuals and therefore the species against a strong selective pressure?
500
These are the formulas for photosynthesis and respiration with arrows showing how the products and reactants of the two are related.
What is written on your whiteboard!?
500
This is an adaptation of Trogdor's and a selective pressure that might have caused it to evolve.
