DNA/RNA
What does DNA stand for?
Deoxyribonucleic acid
what does "m" in mRNA stand for
messenger
In complementary base pairs between DNA and RNA, what base does adenine bind with?
Uracil
What is the difference between phenotype and genotype
Phenotype shows physical traits
Genotype shows the combination of alleles
Type of nonmendelian pattern that shows all the dominant traits
codominance
Which continent is Chile in?
South America
What are four bases of DNA?
Adenine, guanine, cytosine, thymine
What type of sugar does RNA have?
ribose
where does translation occur?
in the cytoplasm. right outside the nucleus
What is an example of a homozygous dominant genotype?
As long as you have two capital letters - Ex. BB.
Type of nonmendelian pattern that shows a blend of the dominant traits
incomplete dominance
Which restaurant serves the baconator?
Wendy's
Which bases do Adenine, guanine, cytosine and thymine bind with?
A - T
C - G
A type of RNA that is part of the ribosome structure
rRNA
Where does mRNA come from?
Made from a template strand of DNA in the nucleus
Explain what Punnett squares are for
to show probabilities of traits of the possible offsprings
Give an example of incomplete dominance
As long as traits are blended in. Example, White and Red flowers would have a probability of having an offspring of Pink flowers
What is the capital of Illinois?
Springfield
This base is found in RNA that is not found in DNA
Uracil (U)
What is the purpose of RNA
RNA can use the genetic information from a template of DNA and translate that to make proteins
What type of protein is responsible for creating the mRNA strand?
RNA polymerase
If you cross two heterozygous parents of one characteristic, what are the resulting genotypes?
Example:
AA, 2 Aa, aa
Give an example of codominance
White cat and orange cat can have a kitten that shows both white and orange patterned cat
What are the four lines for the chorus of Little Einsteins?
We're going on a trip in our favorite rocket ship
Zooming through the sky, Little Einsteins
Climb aboard, get ready to explore
There's so much to find, Little Einsteins
Three types of RNA
mRNA, tRNA, rRNA
What does tRNA carry and will eventually form polypeptide chain to make proteins
amino acids
what three structures come together to make a protein
ribosome, tRNA and mRNA
If you cross a homozygous dominant trait for long neck and heterozygous parent, what is the probability of getting the short recessive trait?
0%
Show an example of a Punnett square that demonstrates a cross between heterozygous purple flower with a homozygous red flower (red+blue=purple) R - red and B - blue
