People
Wrote "Origin of Species" which documented his travels to the Galapagos Islands. Founder of the Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection.
Charles Darwin
Semipermeable structure that decides what enters/exits the cell.
Cell Membrane
True or false? Selection can only occur if all individuals of a species are genetically identical.
False
The process of DNA creating a copy of itself.
The 2 categories within the "hierarchy" that are used for scientific names
Genus and species
Experimented on Pea Plants. Father of Heredity.
Gregor Mendel
Structure that is present in plant cells (outside the membrane), but not animal cells. Provides the "square" shape.
Cell Wall
The process that increases the frequency of individuals that are most suited for their specific environments.
Natural Selection
The process that occurs where DNA gets converted into mRNA, which then leaves the Nucleus.
Transcription
Virus cycle that involves the "Inactive" phase before replication.
Lysogenic Cycle
Father of Taxonomy.
Carolus Linnaeus
Site of DNA storage. "Brain of the cell."
Nucleus
A change in a DNA sequence.
Mutation
Cytosine
Variable that the researcher manipulates/changes.
Independent Variable
The 2 guys who took (actually, "stole" cough cough) credit for DNA images and the structure of the double helix.
Watson and Crick
Energy production (in the form of ATP) occurs here. The "powerhouse" of the cell.
Mitochondrian
The type of selection where the extreme (outermost) traits are favored.
Disruptive Selection
Occurs at the ribosomes in the cytoplasm: Codons and Anti-Codons get connected and Amino Acids form protein chains.
Translation
Type of bond that is found in water, very easily breakable.
Hydrogen
Discovered "cells" while looking at corks through a microscope.
Robert Hooke
Organelle that contains enzymes that break things down. Protein destruction.
Lysosomes
The process of using carbon and DNA to determine how old a fossil is. Very accurate.
Absolute Dating
The type of RNA that provides the Anti-Codon in the process of Translation.
rRNA
Many vertebrates have similar-looking embryos that contain gills. This provides evidence for _________ (2 words).
