What are the complementary bases?
A-T and C-G

What is a centromere?
The center of the chromosome where the two chromatids meet.
200
What is DNA?
the genetic makeup of an organism
200
what is mitosis?
The process when cells replicate for growth and repair and complete with two daughter cells.
200
What is the order of phases in mitosis?
IPMAT-C
200
what is a double helix?
The shape of the DNA molecules.
200
Why is replication important?
It is what DNA must do to continue life.

What are dominant alleles?
The allele that overtakes the recessive allele
300
What is genotype?
The genetic makeup of an organism.
300
what is a karyotype?
300
what is an example of a phenotype?
Black hair, brown hair or brown eyes, blue eyes etc.
300
what is the nucleusl
you will find the genetic information in what part of the cel
400
What are recessive alleles?
The allele that is hidden and will not show up unless there are a pair of lowercase letters
400
What is a gene?
The part of a DNA code and chromosomes

what does sugar, phosphate and nitrogenous bases form?
A nucleotide.
400
what does the nitrogenous base do?
Three bases come together and code for a specific amino acid.

What is heterozygous?
When the genotype is different to eachother. Eg. Bb, Dd, Aa.
500
What is genetics?
The study of traits passing from parents to offspring

What is the difference between sexual and asexual?
Asexual requires one parent, sexual requires two parent organisms.
500
What do 2 lowercase letters mean?
It means the allele shows up as recessive
500
What is the difference between mitosis and meiosis?
Daughter cells are identical to parent cells in mitosis, and in meiosis the daughter cells are all genetically different to the parents and to each other.
500
How would you describe BB and Bb?
The homozygous and heterozygous genotypes for dominant allelles using B's.
