This is what wraps around histones to build up chromosomes.
What is chromatin?
100
Thymine and Uracil.
What are the two nucleotides are substituted for each other when translating DNA into mRNA and vice versa?
100
This type of RNA does not carry information but rather collects amino acids to be used to form proteins.
What is tRNA?
100
This was the first animal to be cloned using the roslin method of using electrical current to combine the somatic cell with the egg cell.
What is dolly the sheep?
100
If one of these alleles is present in an allele pair then it will always over power what ever other alleles there are in that pair.
What are simple dominant alleles?
200
This substance makes up chromatin entirely.
What is DNA?
200
Adenine, Guanine, Thymine, Cytosine.
What are the four nucleotides that make up DNA?
200
This type of RNA serves as a carrier of genetic material from the nucleus to the ribosome.
What is mRNA?
200
The process in which DNA fragments of dead cells can "take over" living cells buy merging with its genome.
What is transformation?
200
Any one particular form or variation of a gene.
What is an allele?
300
Humans have this many chromosomes.
What is 46?
300
DNA is an acronym for this word.
What is Deoxyribonucleic acid?
300
This compound serves as energy for cells.
What is adenosine tri-phosphate?
300
A process used to sort DNA strands by size based on the rate at which different DNA strands can transverse a permeable membrane.
What is gel electrophoresis?
300
It takes two of these alleles to be present in a pair in order for an organism to have their phenotype.
What is a simple recessive allele?
400
This scientist proved the theory of crossing over between chromosomes.
Who is Barbara Mc Clintock?
400
This scientist first studied hereditary patterns which paved the way to the discovery of DNA.
Who is Gregor Mendel?
400
This protein can read DNA and translate it into mRNA.
What is a polymerase?
400
A belief system of what is right and what is wrong that often conflicts with biotechnology.
What are ethics?
400
If these alleles are present in a chromosome pair them they both will be apparent in the offspring however they will not blend.
What is a co-dominant allele?
500
Genetic material moving from one chromosome to another or simply being deleted from a chromosome.
What is "crossing over"?
500
The process by which DNA can move from place to place on a chromosome by being translated into mRNA and then back into DNA and added to the genome.
What is retro transposition?
500
These two scientists are given credit for rosalind franklins crystallography of a DNA molecule and in turn for discovering the molecular structure of DNA.
Who are Watson and Crick?
500
These compounds are used to cut DNA at specific spots to make it easier to read and to copy.
What are restriction enzymes?
500
If these alleles are present in an allele pair then they will both show up in the offspring and blend together.
