Mitosis is technically the division of this cell structure that contains the DNA
What is the nucleus?
100
Meiosis produces these specialized cells used in reproduction.
What are gametes (or sperm and eggs)?
100
The different versions of a gene are referred to as these.
What are alleles?
100
Proteins are made out of these smaller units
What are amino acids?
100
After mitosis, both cells still have the full amount of DNA because it duplicated during this part of the cell cycle.
What is interphase?
200
This is the first stage of mitosis, during which the DNA coils up to form chromosomes
What is prophase?
200
Meiosis involves this many divisions of the cell.
What is two?
200
If one allele hides or masks the presence of another, it is referred to as this.
What is dominant?
200
This is the first step in protein synthesis, during which an RNA copy of a gene is made in the nucleus
What is transcription?
200
These event during meiosis results in gene shuffling that creates more genetic diversity
What is crossing over?
300
This is the second stage of mitosis, during which the chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell.
What is metaphase?
300
Meiosis produces this many cells at the end.
What is four?
300
If a person has two of the same alleles for a trait (ex. AA or aa), their genotype is referred to as this.
What is homozygous?
300
This is the second step in protein synthesis, during which amino acids are assembled together at a ribosome to make the protein
What is translation?
300
If you breed a red rose and a white rose together and get pink roses, that trait is determined by this type of dominance.
What is incomplete dominance?
400
This is the third stage in mitosis, during which the sister chromatids (or duplicate copies) get pulled apart.
What is anaphase?
400
The cells produced by meiosis are referred to as this because they only contain half of an organism's DNA.
What is haploid?
400
If tall (T) is dominant to short (t), this percentage of the offspring would be tall if two heterozygous individuals bred with each other.
What is 75%?
400
This would be the RNA copy of the gene "ACT TGA" after it has been transcribed
What is UGA ACU?
400
If you breed a white dog and a black dog together and get a white dog with black spots, that trait is determined by this type of dominance.
What is codominance?
500
Following, mitosis the cell will split in two in a process called cytokinesis. In a human, each of the two new daughter cells will have this many chromosomes.
What is 46?
500
Unlike mitosis, in which the sister chromatids get pulled apart from each other during anaphase, these get pulled apart instead.
What are homologous chromosomes (the chromosomes from mom and dad)
500
In apples, red (R) is dominant to green (r) and sweet (S) is dominant to sour (s). Predict what percentage of the offspring would be sour green apples if you crossed these two apples: RrSs x rrss
What is 25%?
500
These amino acids would be assembled together after the RNA sequence "GAU CAG" is translated at the ribosome
What is aspartic acid and glutamine?
500
Once proteins are made by the ribosomes, this cell organelle will ship them out to where they need to go.
