Plant Cell
What is the function of Chloroplast?
It carries out photosynthesis.
What is the usual shape of the animal cell?
An irregular shape.
Are bacteria considered the first living organism on earth?
Yes.
What do viruses consist of?
They consist of genetic material (DNA or RNA).
THIEVE JEPORADY: What is a Punnett Square and what is it's function?
(You can take a max of 500 points from a team)
A Punnett Square is a tool used to predict the possible genotypes and phenotypes from a cross between to parents.
What does the cell wall's function?
It helps maintain the shape of the cell.
Does the animal cell have more vacuoles than the plant cell?
Yes (although sometimes there may be only one)
What are some shapes of bacteria?
Shapes can be rod, spherical, or spiral.
What are viruses enclosed with?
Viruses are enclosed in a protein coat.
True or False: The recessive trait is always expressed and the dominant trait is masked by the recessive trait.
False.
600 DOUBLE JEPORADY: What is Cytosol?
A jelly-like fluid within a cell.
What is the function of the Nucleus?
It stores genetic material and controls a cell's activities.
900 TRIPLE JEPORADY: How can bacteria be treated?
They can be treated with antibiotics that target their unique cellular processes.
How do Latent Viruses reproduce?
They use the cell's mitosis to wait for reproduction through the daughter cells.
What is gene separation?
It is when each offspring receives only one trait from each from each parent.
What is the function of the Golgi Apparatus?
It processes proteins.
TRICK JEPORADY: What is the mitochondria?
(If you miss the question you lose 400 points)
It is the powerhouse of the cell.
How do bacteria reproduce?
Bacteria reproduce independently by binary fusion dividing into two identical copies.
How can we treat viruses?
Good hygiene,(cover coughs, sneezes, washing hands)healthy living,(balanced diet and exercise)and vaccination.
What percent of offspring will be Aa, what percent will be AA, and what percent will be aa?
Fifty percent of offspring will be Aa, twenty-five percent will be AA, and twenty-five percent will be aa.
What do plant cells have that animal cells do not have?
A large vacuole, chloroplast, and a cell wall.
What is the cell membrane's function?
It encloses the contents of the cell and regulates the flow of substances in and out of the cell.
True Or False: The number of bacteria in your mouth is more than the total number of humans on earth.
True
1,000 DOUBLE JEPORADY: How does a virus reproduce?
They attach to a host and inject nucleic acid. They then destroy the cell
What is the difference between artificial selection and natural selection?
Artificial selection is not randomized and people breed other organisms for specific traits. Natural selection is survival of the fittest, variation and population, is passed down from one generation to another, and more likely to survive and reproduce.
