Blue Genes
100
Cells with a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles
What are eukaryotes?
100
This organelle has ribosomes attached to it
What is the rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)?
100
This phase is divided into G1, G0, S, and G2
What is interphase?
100
Adjective describing organisms with two different alleles for a trait
What is heterozygous?
200
This structure protects and supports plant cells
What is the cell wall?
200
This organelle holds the cell’s DNA
What is the nucleus?
200
In this phase the cell grows and organelles replicate
What is G2 phase?
200
Alleles will separate during the formation of gametes
What is Mendel’s segregation principle?
300
This cell type has centrioles and small vacuoles
What is an animal cell?
300
This organelle makes up to 90 percent of a plant cell
What is the vacuole?
300
During this phase of mitosis, the mitotic spindle forms
What is prophase?
300
Widow’s peaks are dominant. A male parent without a widow’s peak has offspring with a female parent with a widow’s peak, but the female’s father did not have a widow’s peak. Show me the two parental genotypes.
What is male: ww and female: Ww?
400
This type of cell has a cell membrane, but is smaller than eukaryotes
What are prokaryotes?
400
This organelle releases stored energy for the cell to use
What are mitochondria?
400
This structure wraps around DNA, forming two separate nuclei during telophase
What is the nuclear envelope?
400
A moth population was mostly a dark color, which allowed them to hide from birds on trees with dark bark. Their environment changed, killing most of the trees with dark bark and leaving only trees with light bark.. Over many generations, the moth population became mostly a light color. This process is called __________.
What is natural selection?
500
This moves organelles around the cell and helps give the cell its shape
What is the cytoskeleton?
500
If a cell cannot ship proteins from the ribosomes to everywhere else in the cell, which organelle malfunctioned?
Golgi Apparatus
500
During this phase in mitosis the term “sister chromatids” changes to “single chromosomes”
What is anaphase?
500
A man with type B blood and a woman with type AB blood have a child, can they have a child with type O blood?
