WEEK 1
This process allows plants to make their own food using sunlight.
Photosynthesis
This organelle is known as the "control center" of the cell.
Nucleus
This molecule carries an organism's genetic information.
DNA
This type of mutation has no effect on an organism. (Harmful, helpful, neutral)
Neutral
Plants need this source of energy to perform photosynthesis.
Sunlight
This organelle is only found in plant cells and carries out photosynthesis.
Chloroplast
This genotype is heterozygous.(B = dominant, b = recessive)
Bb
A rabbit is born with thicker fur that is better for protecting from the cold. Is this considered a helpful, harmful, or neutral mutation?
Helpful
This process releases energy from glucose inside cells.
Cellular respiration
This structure gives plant cells their shape and support.
Cell wall
This genotype is homozygous recessive. (B = dominant, b = recessive)
bb
In a snowy environment, these rabbits are more likely to survive because they are harder for predators to see. (Brown or white)
This simple sugar is used by cells for energy.
Glucose
These cells have many small vacuoles instead of one large vacuole.
Animal cells
This tool is used to predict the possible traits of offspring.
Punnett square
This type of mutation is most likely to be passed on to offspring - a mutation in a body cell or a mutation in a reproductive cell?
Reproductive cell
This is anything that has mass and takes up space.
Matter
This jelly-like substance fills the inside of the cell and helps hold the organelles in place.
Cytoplasm
These genotypes will show the dominant trait. (B = dominant, b = recessive)
BB and Bb
This type of mutation makes it harder for an organism to survive in its environment (Harmful, helpful, neutral)
