100
The regrowth of a lost body part is called this.
What is regeneration
100
This type of stem cell is give rise to any cell in the organism.
What is embryonic stem cell.
100
This type of stem cell is limited in what it can produce; specifically to similar cell types.
What are adult stem cells
100
Cancer can form in humans from the infection of these.
What are viruses
100
This technique can help identify a criminal in a pool of subjects.
What is DNA profiling.
200
The birth of a new animal from the genome of a previously existing animal (e.g. Dolly the sheep)
What is reproductive cloning
200
These enzymes are used in gene cloning and are derived from bacteria.
What are restriction enzymes.
200
Plasmids are vectors that move DNA from one organism to another and are used for this technique.
What is gene cloning.
200
This gene in a virus can cause cancer in humans
What is an oncogene
200
To determine how gene expression changes from one tissue to another, a scientist would use this technique.
What is a DNA microarray.
300
This type of cloning produces embryonic stem cells
What are therapeutic cloning
300
This type of DNA is formed with a scientist combines DNA from two different sources to create one DNA molecule.
What is recombinant DNA.
300
This is the study of an organism's complete set of genes.
What is genomics.
300
These genes code for growth factors and can be come cancer genes
What are proto-oncogenes
300
This type of DNA consists of short, repetitive sequences that exist in multiple copies throughout the genome.
What are short tandem repeats (STRs)
400
Bone marrow being used to produce red and white blood cells is an example of this stem cell type.
What are adult stem cells.
400
A transgenic organism contains this.
What is DNA or a gene from another organism.
400
This technique can be used to separate molecules (e.g. DNA) according to their size and charge.
What is gel electrophoresis.
400
The type of gene inhibits cell division and may cause cancer if mutated.
What is a tumor suppressor gene
400
When use gel electrophoresis, bands of DNA that are this are found at the end of the gel.
What are short/small.
500
Farmers in ancient cultures used artificial selection to grow the best crops possible. This is a primitive version of this type of DNA technology.
What is biotechnology.
500
This is a collection of cloned DNA fragments that includes an organism's entire genome.
What is genomic library.
500
This technique quickly copies a specific segment of DNA in a short period of time.
What is Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)
500
These agents in the environment can cause cancer (a collective term).
What is carcinogen.
500
When running gel electrophoresis, this is the reason the DNA is added to the negative end of the gel.
It is negatively charged.
