You stepped on my toe sis!
While mitosis begins with a human diploid cell, it ends containing this number of chromosomes
46
This type of allele can be hidden in a parent yet fully expressed in the offspring.
recessive
While o- is known as the universal donor, this bloodtype wants to take everything
AB+
This nitrogenous base takes over for thymine in ribose sugars
uracil
In this viral pathway, the genome hides quietly in the host before ever making new viruses.
lysogenic
This phase is known to seperate sister chromatids on opposite sides of the cell
Anaphase
This process explains why small, isolated populations often reveal deleterious recessive traits.
Inbreeding
This allele interaction describes my pink colouration compared to my red mom and white dad.
incomplete dominance
When two genes are less than 50 map units apart, this process explains their occasional separation.
recombination
You won’t pick up DNA from the environment here, it will only occur by shaking hands with another cell.
conjugation
In 1882, Flemming discovered that the S phase, of the cell cycle, produces these two identical dsDNA molecules
sister chromatids
Even though one allele is broken, you’re fine, your single working copy proves this principle.
haplosufficiency
Gametes which contain two copies of a chromosome represent this genetic failure
nondisjunction
If adenine makes up 33% of a DNA sample, Chargaff’s rules say this base must make up the same percentage.
Thymine
This immune-evasion method relies not on hiding, but on pretending to be the host.
mimicry
During M-phase, chromosomes become compact rods, which are held together at this junction
centromere
Due to this phenomenon, a child born to two deaf parents has the ability to hear.
Complementation
Girls with only one X instead of two illustrate this type of chromosomal imbalance.
Aneuploidy (Turner Syndrome)
In 1928, this scientist discovered proof that DNA is the genetic material in a cell.
Frederick Griffith
A bacterium’s bonus DNA, often exchanged during conjugation, is called this.
plasmids
Although mitosis is often said to include cytokinesis, the first four phases are collectively referred to by this name
Karyokinesis
One genetic phenomenon explains both this man’s cystic fibrosis and his difficulty keeping food down.
Pleiotropy
If a plant doubles all its own chromosomes instead of borrowing some from another species, it becomes this.
autopolyploid
Although both primers synthesize 5’→3’, this primer binds to the bottom strand to start replication
forward primer
In Hfr bacteria, the orientation of this element determines which genes are transferred first and in what direction
F factor
