Mitosis!
Chromosomes/Chapter 12!
Meiosis!
Mendel and such!
Inheritance!
100
The final product of mitosis are this. (Haploid or diploid?)
What is diploid?
100
This is what holds the sister chromatids together.
What is the centromere?
100
This is a gene's specific location on a chromosome.
What is a locus?
100
The alternate form of a gene.
What is an allele?
100
These genes are inherited together (usually).
What are linked genes?
200
This phase is where the chromosomes are pulled apart.
What is anaphase?
200
This is a specific spot on the centromere where the spindle attaches.
What is the kinetochore?
200
This is the main source of genetic variation.
What is mutation?
200
This law states that alleles for different genes separate independently during meiosis.
What is the Law of Independent Assortment?
200
This is when gametes have too many/too few chromosomes.
What is non-disjunction?
300
This is longest phase of the cell cycle. It deals with growth, repair, and synthesis of DNA.
What is interphase?
300
DNA is not coiled up. It is also replicated in this form.
What is chromatin?
300
This phase of meiosis deals with the separation of homologus chromosomes.
What is Anaphase I?
300
In order to determine the genotype of an organism, one does a test cross. The plant in question is crosses with an organism of this particular genotype.
What is homozygous recessive?
300
This is when DNA detaches and then reattaches in the REVERSE orientation.
What is inversion?
400
Spindles are made of this type of protein.
What is microtubules? (Tubulin)
400
This is asexual reproduction where the cell replicates DNA and splits into two. (No mitosis!)
What is binary fission?
400
This is the exchange of DNA during synapse.
What is crossing over?
400
This type of dominance is when one allele is NOT dominant over another allele. They blend together.
What is incomplete dominance?
400
This type of non-disjunction is XXY. It codes for a sterile male.
What is Klinefelter's Syndrome?
500
This specific stop signal is an inhibition when it is too crowded, so the cells stop dividing.
What is density-dependent inhibition?
500
This type of cell splits into two by building a cell wall: there is no cleavage furrow.
What is a plant cell?
500
These are the ending cells of meiosis. (Haploid or diploid?)
What is haploid?
500
This is when ONE character is controlled by MANY genes of DIFFERENT functions.
What is epistasis?
500
This is the word that describes an abnormal number of chromosomes.
What is aneuploidy?
