Tectonic Plates
The two types of tectonic plates.
What are oceanic and continental plates?
The 3 parts of interphase include:
G1 S G2
Who is Charles Darwin?
The Father of Evolution and Natural Selection
To Produce Sex Cells/Egg and Sperm cells
What does DNA stand for?
DEOXYRIBONUCLEIC ACID
A plate boundary where the plates slide past each other.
What is a transform boundary?
When chromosome align in the equator of the cell, What phase am I referring to?
Metaphase
The term that referres to organisms with the favorable traits will survive and pass information on to their offspring
Natural selection
What Chromosome number will a human cell have at the end of Meiosis?
23 Chromosomes
When DNA is tightly coiled and condensed, What does it form?
Chromosomes
A boundary where two plates move together and collide.
What is a convergent boundary?
How many daughter are produced at the end of Mitosis
Mitosis: 2 daughter cells
What is the difference between Constructive and Destructive forces
Constructive forces build up and Destructive forces tear down
Which term refers to half of the chromosome number in Meiosis
Haploid
In DNA what do all genes CODE for?
Genes code for PROTEINS
A boundary where two plates move away from each other.
What is a divergent boundary?
What phase does chromatin condense (coil) and form chromosomes, the centrioles migrate to opposite pole and form spindle fibers?
Prophase
Which type of birds were most unique Charles Darwin and why?
Finches because each bird had a different beak to feed on different types of food.
In which phase of Meiosis does crossing over take place? What is crossing over!
Crossing over is the exchange of genetic material. It occurs in Prophase I.
What are the 4 Nitrogen Bases in DNA and how do they pair?
Adenine paires with Thymine
Guanine pairs with Cytocsine
What are the 3 types of plate boundaries? Explain each by using your hands.
Convervent - two plates come together
Divergent- two plates move away from each other
Transform- two plates slide past each other
Which phase of the cell cycle are chromosomes separated and move to opposite poles?
Anaphase
What are Homologous Structures?
They have the same structure but different functions. Ex whale fin, human arm, cat,
What are the 2 divisions of Meiosis?
How many daughter cell are produced at the end of each Dividion?
Two divisions
Meiosis I (2 daughter cells)
Meiosis II (4 daughter cells)
What are the 3 parts to a DNA Nucleotide? What is the Shape of DNA?
Phosphate, Sugar and Nitrogen base
Shape is a Double Helix
