Talk About It
The first process done within the signal transduction process.
Reception
The type of division done through mitosis
Nuclear
The type of reproduction that increases genetic diversity
Sexual
A name given for a location on a chromosome where a known gene is
Locus
The structure that functions in controlling spindle fibers during cellular division
Centrosome
Any chemical messenger received on the outer surface of a cell
Ligand
The phase of cellular life in which a cell spends 90% of its time
Interphase
Chromosomes with the same shape/size
Homologous
Mendel's Law that explains how two traits may not always remain together
Independent Assortment
The structure that holds two sister chromatids together
Centromere
The type of signaling done where the same cell is both transmitting and receiving a signal
Autocrine
The specific phase where chromatids are separated
Anaphase
The specific phase of meiosis in which two separate cells contain a haploid amount of chromosomes around a forming spindle
Prophase II
Genes that are closely located together on a chromosome that are then often inherited together
Linked Genes
The physical locations of crossing over
Chiasmata
The type of membrane receptor that utilizes G-proteins to transduce a signal
GPCR
The chromosomes present in a cell after it has gone through mitosis if the diploid number is 92.
92
The generation of plants that completes the process of meiosis
Sporophyte
The chance of having a female with colorblindness if the trait is X-linked and the mother is a carrier, and the father expresses colorblindness.
1/4 - 25%
The nature of the trait that leads to blood type
Multiple Allele
The type of chemical functional group manipulated by RTK's.
Phosphate Groups
An internal factor that maintains the regulation of cell division
Cyclins, or CDKs
The process done in prophase I where chromosomes line up next to each other and exchange genetic info. Need: name for lining up AND exchanging genetic info.
Synapsis + Crossing Over
The chance of having a child with the genotype aabbcc from a cross of AaBbcc and aaBbCc
1/16 - 6%
The location of cyclic-AMP messengers
Intracellular, cytoplasm
