Cell Cycle
In what phase of the cell cycle does a cell spend most of its time?
Interphase
How many cycles of PMAT does mitosis go through?
1
What happens during Transcription?
DNA is changed into RNA.
Deletion is a mutation in which.....
DNA bases (nucleotides) are removed from the DNA strand.
This cellular process is a perfect example of asexual reproduction.
Mitosis
The S phase
How many cycles of PMAT does meiosis go through?
2
What happens during translation?
RNA makes proteins.
Duplication is a mutation in which....
Bases (nucleotides) are added to a DNA sequence.
True or False: Fraternal Twins have the exact same fingerprints.
False
In this phase of the cell cycle, the cell grows in preparation for Mitosis.
G2 phase
In Meiosis II this phase of the cell cycle is skipped.
Interphase
Add the complementary DNA strand to the following sequence.
A G G T A C C C C
T C C A T G G G G
An Inversion is a mutation in which....
The order of DNA bases (nucleotides) is reversed or changed.

U C C A U G G G G
Translocation is a mutation in which.....
Pieces of chromosomes break off and re-attach themselves to other chromosomes.
Blue eyes and blonde hair are dominant or recessive traits?
Recessive
What happens after the cell cycle ends?
It begins again.
The end result of Meiosis is.....
Four daughter cells that are genetically different from each other.
They help create egg and sperm cells.
How do humans use proteins?
