100

During the cell cycle, a cell grows, prepares for division, and divides into two new cells, which are called these. 


What are daughter cells? 
100
Darwin made important discoveries about change in species over time in this location. 
What are the Galapagos Islands? 
100
Organisms that have two different alleles for a trait are called this. 
What is heterozygous/hybrid? 
100
This term describes an organism's genetic makeup. 
What is genotype? 
100

This form of breeding crosses individuals that are genetically similar, and can lead to genetic disorders in offspring. 

What is inbreeding? 
200

During this stage of cell division, the cell grows, produces more organelles, and makes copies of DNA.

What is Interphase? 
200
Darwin learned about the ways certain species of birds are best adapted to their environment by studying these. 
What are the sizes and shapes of the beaks of Galapagos finches? 
200
Mendel's work with pea plants lead to the discovery of these. 
What are dominant and recessive alleles? 
200

A black guinea pig has the genotype (BB) for fur color. A white guinea pig has the genotype (bb) for fur color. This is the probability that these two guinea pigs will produce a guinea pig with white fur. 

What is 0%?  
200

The process of artificial selection that allows offspring have an exact copy of the parent’s genetic material is known as this. 


What is cloning? 
300

DAILY DOUBLE! Mitosis, the second stage of the Cell Cycle, is divided into these four phases.

What are prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase? 

300
This term explains that organisms that are best adapted to their environments are more likely to survive and reproduce than organisms that are not well adapted. 
What is natural selection? 
300
DAILY DOUBLE! Organisms that have two of the same alleles for a trait are called this. 
What is homozygous/purebred? 
300
These form the genetic code. 
What are the order of the nitrogen bases? 
300

In this form of selective breeding, breeders cross two genetically different individuals.


What is hybridization? 
400

During this phase of mitosis, the chromosomes are split apart. Each chromosome moves to an opposite end of the cell as the cell stretches out.


What is anaphase? 
400
DAILY DOUBLE! This term describes the fact that members of the same species may differ from one another in their traits. 
What is variation? 
400
Mendel made his discoveries about genetics here. 
What are the gardens of a European Monastery? 
400
This word is defined as "the factors that control traits." 
What are genes? 
400
This is a genetic mutation that leads to uncontrolled cell division. 
What is cancer? 
500

During this phase of mitosis, a new nuclear envelope is formed around the chromosomes. The cell pinches at its center.


What is telophase? 
500
Darwin compared the modern day sloth to this extinct species. 
What is megatherium? 
500
In Mendel's pea plant experiments, "F1" stands for this. 
What is the first filial generation? 
500
Genetic information is carried from parent to offspring on these. 
What are chromosomes? 
500

In this type of modern-day genetic modification, the genes from one organism are transferred into the DNA of another organism.


What is genetic engineering?
