Bacteria and Viruses
This characteristic is common to both viruses and bacteria.
What is the presence of genetic material.
The genetic material of the cell.
What is DNA
What is grow and divide
The fundamental principle of Mendelian genetics
How traits are passed from parents to offspring
Type of tissue found in tendons and ligaments
What is dense regular connective tissue
A key difference between viruses and bacteria.
Viruses: non-living; bacteria: living organisms
Repeating units that make up DNA
What are nucleotides
This is NOT a phase of the cell cycle
What is meiosis
Parents pass traits to offspring through this method
Inheritance of genetic material
Method of thinking where conclusions are drawn from observations to form theories.
What is inductive reasoning
A defining feature of viruses.
They rely on host cells for replication.
Four nitrogenous bases found in DNA
What are adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine
The cell spends most of its time in this phase of the cell cycle
What is the interphase
What are phenotypes
Tissue that covers surfaces and lines cavities
What is epithelial tissue
The genetic material of viruses and bacteria can be either of these two things.
What is DNA or RNA
This component is NOT part of a nucleotide
What is amino acid
The interphase consists of these phases
What are G1, S, and G2
Different versions of a gene
What are alleles
Particle that binds RNA to synthesize polypeptides and proteins
What is ribosome
Bacteria and viruses can thrive in this.
What is a variety of environments.
The sugar found in DNA
What is deoxyribose
This happens during the G1 phase
What is cell growth and organelle production
Model that predicts the inheritance of traits
Described as a cell's "recyclers"
What are lysosomes
