Heredity
A trait that only affects genetic males.
What is a y-linked trait?
The first stage of mitosis.
What is prophase?
The last stage of meiosis.
When one trait is coded for by multiple genes.
What is polygenic inheritance?
Any of a number of conditions in which a person's body does not fit into a set male or female category.
What is intersex?
This law tells us that if an individual has two different alleles for a given gene, one of them will be expressed while the other will not be shown.
What is the law of dominance?
The stage of mitosis where the nuclear membrane starts to disappear.
What is prophase?
The stage of meiosis where the cells go from being diploid to haploid.
What is telophase I?
When one gene codes for more than one trait.
What is pleiotropy?
The statistical tool we use to determine whether our results differ significantly from what we expected them to be.
What is a X2 (chi squared) test?
This law tells us that whether you end up with the maternal or paternal version of a chromosome is totally random.
What is the law of independent assortment?
What is telophase?
When two homologous chromosomes link up to form a tetrad.
What is synapsis?
When one gene impacts the expression of another.
What is epistasis?
The first song on the IB Bio playlist is by this artist.
Who is Frank Ocean?
This law tells us that genes are inherited independently of each other.
What is the law of segregation?
The stage of mitosis where plants will begin to form a cell plate.
What is telophase?
Meiosis to produce sperm cells.
What is spermatogenesis?
This can happen if chromosomes are damaged when being pulled apart during anaphase.
What is a chromosomal mutation?
Ms. Goldstein's favorite song from Wicked.
What is The Wizard and I?
When two genes are close together on a chromosome.
What are linked genes?
The genes that promote cell division.
What are proto-oncogenes.
Meiosis to produce egg cells.
What is oogenesis?
These molecules attach to chromosomes to turn 'off' certain genes.
What are histone tags (or methyl groups).
The variety of banana found in most grocery stores today.
What is the cavendish?
