"R" represents red fruit. "r" represent purple fruit. Give the homozygous dominant genotype when it comes to this trait.
RR
What is the name of the type of molecule that is a single-stranded copy of DNA that is read during transcription?
Messenger RNA
Give one advantage of sexual reproduction.
Increased genetic diversity, better able to handle environmental changes
What is the name of the stage of mitosis during which the chromosomes separate?

Fragmentation
Telophase happens alongside what other stage of the cell cycle?
Cytokinesis
Why does PMAT occur twice during meiosis?
So that the chromosome number can be reduced in the 4 daughter cells

What is the name of the enzyme that adds complementary nitrogenous bases to the template strand of DNA during replication?
DNA polymerase
Diploid
Describe the 2 daughter cells that are produced during mitosis.
Diploid and genetically identical
Allows diversity from chromosomes swapping genetic material

0% chance
