This occurs before either meiosis or mitosis can begin.
What is the DNA is copied?
100
The purpose of a Punnet Square.
What is to find the probability of the outcome of a genetic cross?
100
Two ways that flowers move pollen from one flower to another.
What are wind, birds, insects, water, or mammals?
100
Example of artificial selection.
What is humans breeding fish with brighter colors, humans breeding flowers with bigger fruits, humans breeding chickens with larger muscles for meat etc?
200
How offspring compare to parents in sexual reproduction.
What is offspring are different from parents?
200
This is the end result of mitosis.
What is two daughter cells that are identical to the parent cell?
200
Definition and example of homozygous and heterozygous.
What is homozygous is when the alleles are the same such as TT or tt and heterozygous is when the alleles are different such as Tt?
200
Benefit of cross-pollination.
What is that is creates genetic diversity?
200
An example of natural selection.
What is one variation that allows an organism to blend in their their environment, a giraffe having a longer neck to reach leaves higher in a tree, a bird having a strong beak to break apart nuts etc?
300
An advantage of sexual reproduction.
What is genetic diversity?
300
This is the result of meiosis.
What is four gametes that are different from the parent cell?
300
The outcome of a cross between Tt and tt.
What is 50% or 2/4 Tt and 50% or 2/4 tt?
300
Purpose of seed dispersal.
What is to spread seeds away from parent plant so the new plants can have enough resources?
300
Definition of genotype and phenotype and how they relate to each other.
What is genotype is genetic make-up and phenotype is the physical expression of the genotype? The genotype determines the phenotype.
400
An advantage of asexual reproduction.
What is it is quick, doesn't take a lot of energy, and it only requires one parent?
400
Two similarities between meiosis and mitosis.
What are they both copy the DNA, dissolve the nucleus, line chromosomes up in the middle of the cell, pull chromosomes to either side of the cell, and divide to make the new cells.
400
The outcome of a cross between Tt and Tt.
What is 75% or 3/4 dominant and 25% or 1/4 recessive?
400
Characteristics of a seed the can be dispersed by the wind.
What is it should be light-weight and have a mechanism to catch the wind?
400
Definition of dominant and recessive traits.
What is a dominant trait will show up if a dominant allele is present but a recessive trait will show up only if there are TWO recessive alleles?
500
Two examples of asexual reproduction.
What are vegetative propagation, binary fission, budding, or regeneration?
500
The purpose of mitosis for unicellular and multi-cellular organisms.
What is unicellular it's for reproduction and multi-cellular it's for growth or repair?
500
The outcome of a cross between TT and tt.
What is 100% dominant?
500
Two methods of animal assisted seed dispersal.
What is the seed sticks to the animal or an animal eats the seed and deposits it somewhere else.
500
Assume both parents are heterozygous. Explanation of whether a dominant allele is easier to inherit from parents.
What is each allele has a an equal chance of being inherited? Dominant will overwhelm recessive but the alleles have equal chances.
