Genetic variation
The dominant allele completely hides the effect of the recessive allele.
What is complete dominance?
Location of protein synthesis.
What is a ribosome?
Water + carbon dioxide --> glucose + oxygen
What is the photosynthesis word equation?
Permanent change in the base sequence of a DNA molecule.
What is a mutation?
Chloroplast.
Three or more alleles for a trait.
What is multiple alleles?
What is mRNA?
Glucose + oxygen --> carbon dioxide + water + energy
What is the equation for aerobic respiration?
One base is changed in a base sequence.
What is a point mutation?
Chlorophyll.
What is the pigment in chloroplasts?
What is population bottleneck?
3 bases on an mRNA strand.
Diffusion of water from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration through a semi-permeable membrane.
What is osmosis?
Non-sister chromatids get close enough to exchange sections of DNA.
What is crossing over?
Location of protein synthesis.
What is the ribosome?
Alleles that cause the death of individuals of a population.
What are lethal alleles?
Amino acids joined together.
What is a protein?
The passive movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
What is diffusion?
What is independent assortment?
An environmental factor that selects against an organism's phenotype.
What is selection pressure?
Random loss of alleles.
What is genetic drift?
First step in protein synthesis, where the DNA coding strand is copied using the DNA template strand.
What is transcription?
The movement of particles from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration using ATP (energy).
What is active transport?
Alleles separate during gamete formation.
What is segregation?
The structure of a protein is disrupted and can no longer perform its function.
What is denature?
