parts of a cell
the power house
mitochondria
these are remains of plants and animals that help scientists with the theory of evolution
Fossils
these cells have yet to chose what they will become
Stem cells
the process of breeding organisms with desirable traits
selective breeding
what is sickle cell anemia
this is a disease in which it makes it harder to breathe
this contains DNA
the nucleus
these are similar similar physical features that suggest animals have common ancestors
homologous structures
These cells carry oxygen to the lungs
Blood cells
when nature selects certain organisms to survive and breed
natural selection
what is a frameshift mutation
when you insert or delete things from a genetic code
produces and stores proteins
Endoplasmic reticulum
this thing found in a cell is made up of adenine guanine cytosine and thymine
DNA
These cells have a nucleus
Eukaryotic cells
the alteration of a genetic code
genetic engineering
what is a point mutation
a mutation that affects only one thing in a genetic code
this attatches to the ER and are proteins
ribosomes
the branch of biology that that deals with the geographical distribution of plants and animals
Biogeography
These cells do not have a nucleus
prokaryotic cells
what does PCR stand for
Polymerase chain reaction
what is cystic fibrosis
a mutation
this organelle processes and packages proteins and lipids
golgi apparatus
this branch of biology and medicine concerned with the study of embryos and their development
Embryology
these cells are involved in reproduction
sperm or egg cells
What is evolution
The theory that all living things came from mutations
can mutations be good?
Yes only sometimes
