DNA Structure/Function
This is the name of the shape of DNA
Double Helix
This many nitrogen base makes up a codon
3
mitosis occurs in these types of cells
body (somatic) cells
This occurs in sexual reproduction when sperm and egg combine.
fertilization
This is the trait that blocks out other traits
Dominant
These are the building blocks of DNA
Nucleotide
codons code for this
genes
meiosis creates these types of cells also known as sperm or egg
gamete cells
This is the type of reproduction that produces genetically identical offspring
Asexual
What is the name 0f diffrent versiond pf a gene
Alleles
These are the 3 parts of a nucleotide
nitrogen base, phosphate, sugar
This is a section of DNA found on a chromosome that makes a specific protien
genes
Mitosis produces this type kind of identical cell with this many chromosomes
(in human)
diploid with 46 chromosomes
These are the advantages to Sexual reproduction
genetic variation, increased chance to adapt, ability to selected desired mate, and traits
This is the genotype Mm
heterozygous
These are the names of the 4 nitrogen bases found in DNA molecule
Adenine, Thymine, Guanine, Cytosine
A mutation occurs when these things occur to nitrogen base
added, deleted, or swapped
Meiosis this kind of unique cell with this many chromosomes
(in human)
haploid with 23 chromosomes
These are the 3 advantages to Asexual reproduction
less time/energy, ability to produce more in a short amount of time, requires only one parent (fast?)
This is the genotype MM
Homozygous Dominant
Please use base-pair ruling to find the complimentary strand
AGGTACTGC
TCCATGACG
This will cause a natrual mutation
When the change in nitrogen base does not change the amino acid attached
What are the phases that occur 1x in Mitosis and 2x in Meiosis
Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase (PMAT)
This is the major disadvantage of Asexual reproduction
low genetic variation that may cause a species to go extinct if an environment rapidly changes
If purple flowers are dominant (P) and the parents are PP and pp this is the percentage of offspring that have purple phenotype
100%
