Point Mutations
Phases of Mitosis
Oh Mei-osis
Inheritance
100
This mutation results in the truncated polypeptide.
What is a nonsense mutation?
100
This phase occurs in Mitosis AND Meiosis.
What is Interphase?
100
This get's produced at the end of Telophase 2.
What are 4 haploid daughter cells?
100
The physical or behavioral characteristics that are the result of gene expression
What is phenotype?
200
This mutation does not alter amino acid sequence.
What is silent mutation?
200
This phase occurs immediately after all of the sister chromatids are aligned halfway between poles.
What is Metaphase?
200
A physical exchange between chromosome pieces of a crossing bivalent.
What is crossing over?
200
To find out whether a dominant appearing plant is homozygous or heterzygous, this method is used.
What is a testcross?
300
This mutation changes a single amino acid but may not alter function if chemistry of amino acid is similar to the original.
What is missense mutation?
300
This happens in telophase, two nuclei are formed and chromosomes have now becomes chromatin.
What is cytokinesis?
300
The phase in meisos where the HOMOLOGUES PAIR gets separated.
What is Anaphase 1.
300
The physical location of a gene a chromosome
What is locus?
400
This mutation changes a normal codon to a stop codon.
What is a nonsense mutation?
400
This phase, the mitotic spindle completely forms and nuclear envelope are now fragments.
What is prophase/prometaphse?
400
Neither allele is dominant, heterozygote shows intermediate phenotype.
What is incomplete dominance?
500
The addition or deletion of nucleotides, results in a completely different amino acid sequence.
What is frameshift mutation?
500
These phases have checkpoints.
What are g1 and g2 in Interphase and Metaphase?
500
In Anaphase 2, these get separated.
What are sister chromatids?
500
This law states that alleles of different genes assort independently of each other during gamete formation.
What is the Law of Independent Assortment?
