General information/Mutations
How many chromosomes does an average human have?
What is 22 regular pairs, with 2 deciding gender. 46 in total.
What is a karyotype?
What is a cropped, neat, sorted greyscale image of a persons chromosomes?
What are 2 parts of a chromosome and what are they/what do they do? (the regular type)
Chromatids are the arm parts of chromosomes and they encase the genetic information.
Centromeres connect the duplicated chromatids, are there bind them together and keep the chromatids straight when they are duplicating.
Telomeres are the ends of chromosomes, made of hard genetic information, acting as shoelace caps for the chromosome. They also connect to aging
What are all the altering ways made of?
What is proteins?
What is down syndrome caused by?
Name the letter chromosomes you need to have to decide your gender.
What is XX for girls, XY for boys?
What staining method does R-Banding, T-Banding, G-Banding, and C-banding all use?
What is Giemsa Banding?
Where does all DNA evolve from?
What is ancestors of amino acids?
What can gene altering change?
What is human features and deadly diseases in DNA?
What is Fragile X syndrome caused by?
What is a thin string of genetic information sticking out of the x chromosome?
Can mutations be inherited?
What is yes?
What does dying chromosomes help scientists evaluate from chromosomes?
What is the order of the chromosomes as well as any mutations on them?
What is histones?
What is one way to alter genes?
What is CRISPR, ZFN, or TALEN?
Name 3 genetic disorders.
What is *whatever you said*?
When were chromosomes first seen (bonus points if you can name the guy who saw them)
What is Walther Flemming in 1882?
What is quinacrine used for, for testing and for other uses?
What is quinacrine is used for q-banding, and it is used for treatment against malaria?
What are the 2 types of chromosomes and what does the other type, not the x one do?
What is mtDNA provides genetic information that tells the mitochondria how to convert chemical energy in food into energy.
What is mtDNA and nuclear DNA?
What year was the TALEN protein strand discovered?
What is 2010?
What is the difference between Edwards syndrome and trisomy 18?
What are the 5 types of mutations in chromosomes
What is translocations, deletions, duplications, insertions, and inversions?
Explain how FISH works.
What is *see presentation*
How many genes are in the mammal version of the special DNA?
What is 37?
What is Fok1?
Can cri du chat syndrome get inherited? (2x points if you can say what the name stands for and why they named it that way)
What is yes, in some cases? (name comes from french for the cry of the cat because when a baby with this cries, it sounds like a cat, because the larynx is not fully formed when they start crying)
