Gregor Mendel
Who is the Father of Genetics?
100
Creates cells with the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
What is mitosis?
100
What an organism looks like.
What is phenotype?
100
These go along the top and side of a Punnett square.
What are parents?
100
Located in the cell nucleus, contains our DNA.
What are chromosomes?
200
They grow quickly and produce a large number of offspring in one generation
They have many traits with only two forms (i.e. tall or short)
What is why Mendel chose to study pea plants?
200
Requires little energy and is time efficient.
What is asexual reproduction?
200
Made up of two alleles.
What is genotype?
200
A female bearded dragon is homozygous recessive for blue eyes and a male bearded dragon is homozygous dominant for green eyes. What is the likelihood that their offspring will have blue eyes? Use G & g.
What is 0%?
200
Rosalind Franklin
Who is discovered the double helix shape of the DNA molecule?
300
The different forms of a characteristic.
What is a trait?
300
Creates gametes and they carry half of the parent cells DNA.
What is meiosis?
300
If present it determines the individual's phenotype.
What is a dominant allele?
300
Two individuals are heterozygous for round eyes. Using the letters R & r, determine what their probability of having a child with almond shaped eyes is. And provide the child's genotype.
What is 25%? (rr)
300
Number of males with the trait of interest.
What is 3?
400
Exist in pairs and control the expression of a trait.
What is an allele?
400
Can take several months to complete.
What is sexual reproduction?
400
In sexual reproduction each parent supplies half of these.
What are chromosomes?
400
Use a Punnett square to cross these: one heterozygous parent with one homozygous recessive parent parents: (use the letter E)
What is 50% Ee and 50% ee?
400
hh, tt, yy, ii, pp, oo
What is homozygous recessive?
500
These make up our chromosomes.
What is DNA?
500
Leads to genetic variation in offspring due to this type of cell division. (two answers)
What is sexual reproduction and meiosis?
500
HH, GG, KK, PP, BB
What is homozygous dominant?
500
Punnett squares are used to...
What is calculate the probability of inheriting a particular trait?
500
A segment of the DNA molecule.
What are genes?
