These antibodies can cross the placenta and give the embryo passive immunity, but can also threaten the developing embryo by attacking an Rh+ antigen.

These are identical pieces of DNA that remain attached at the centromere after replication.
What are chromatids?

This enzyme reads DNA and makes RNA.
What is RNA polymerase?

This is the remaining blood fraction after all the blood cells and coagulating clotting factors have been removed.
What is blood serum?

These are the proteins that our DNA molecules wrap around.
What are histones?

This is picture 3.
What is metaphase 2?
200
When a gene is neither dominant or recessive, so that both traits are visible in the offspring?
What is co-dominance or incomplete dominance.
200
This sequence of DNA helps position the RNA polymerase in the promoter region and is found in nearly all eukaryotic genomes
What is the TATA box
300
This is an unique segment of an antigen that is recognized by a specific antibody and B-cell
What is an epitope?

Pre-natal vitamins like Folic acid are critical for embryo development because these supplements ensure there is a plentiful supply of this chemical.
What are methyl groups?
300
These are identical chromosomes with the same genes but may have different alleles. Each parent contributes one.
What are homologous chromosomes?
300
This pedigree is the result of a this type of allele
What is a dominant allele?
300
Before RNA is sent to the cytoplasm for translation these segments are cut out to make the final messenger RNA
What are introns?
400
These are the lymphocytes that employ a cell specific response and destroy cells infected by viruses or altered by cancer.
What are T cells?
400
This process refers to the growth of new blood vessels.
What is angiogenesis?

What phase is illustrated in picture 6.
What is mitosis - anaphase

Huntington’s disease is caused by a dominant allele that can result in loss of muscle control and insanity between the ages of 30 and 50. If a heterozygous man mates with a woman who is homozygous recessive, what is the probability that they will have a child with Huntington’s?
What is 50%

This is the organelle that reads mRNA and assembles the polypeptide
What is a ribosome

Due to this, the immune system is harmlessly activated to produce memory B cells that protect against dangerous diseases.
What is a vaccination?

These are harmless cancer clusters that have not yet been nourishedd by new blood vessels.
What are micro-tumors?

During this phase, homologous chromosomes are separating, moving to opposite poles. The ploidy number of the resulting cells are then half of the parental cells

These proteins bind specific areas of the DNA and can turn on, moderate, or turn off the making of RNA.
