Cell Reproduction
During the cell cycle, DNA is copied. What type of macromolecule is DNA?
What is a nucleic acid?
Description of an individual with a genotype of "aa"
What is homozygous recessive?
Darwin's theory of evolution
What is survival of the fittest?
The seven levels of classification, starting with domain.
What are: domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus and species
Complementary pair of DNA sequence: GCT ATG
What is CGA TAC
The phenotypic ratio of a cross between an individual with dimples (Dd) and no dimples (dd)
What is 1 : 1 (or 50%/50%)?
Animals with similar structures that may have different functions
Heterotroph, multicellular, motile,live in many places, eukaryotic
What is Kingdom Animalia?
Transcipt of DNA sequence: TAC TTA
What is: AUG AAU
Cells divide either via mitosis or meiosis. Somatic cells undergo this type of division.
What is mitosis
A major source of genetic diversity that occurs during prophase I
What is crossing-over?
Animals with different structures but similar functions
What are analogous structures?
Prokaryotic, unicellular, oldest living thing, lives in thermal vents
What is the Kingdom Archaebacteria
Site of DNA Transcription
What is the nucleus?
Type of cell division when the number of chromosomes in each daughter cell is halved
What is meiosis
Two things a karyotype can reveal about an individual.
What is gender and if there are any genetic disorders?
Two classification levels used in binomial nomenclature
What are genus and species.
Eukaryotic, autotrophic, multicellular
What is the Kingdom Plantae
Monomers of polypeptides
What are amino acids?
Phase of meiosis when homologous chromosomes are lined up at the metaphase plate.
Primary method used to compare the genes of multiple individuals.
What is gel electrophoresis (or DNA fingerprinting)?
Type of natural selection where organisms with "average" traits are more fit.
What is stabilizing selection?
Eukaryotic, heterotrophic, multicellular, cell wall
What is the Kingdom Fungi
Location of translation
