What is DNA?
DNA is the genetic code or instruction that is passed from parent to child
How many parents are needed?
In sexual reproduction 2 parents are needed, sperm+egg
How many parents are needed?
1

In Mitosis the cell created is body cells
The process of generating a protein from mRNA.
Translation
DNA remains in the cytoplasm in...
Prokaryotes
Is the offspring genetically different or the same?
The offspring produced is genetically different
Is the offspring identical or genetically different?
The offspring produced by Asexual is identical(clone)
What type of cell is created in Meiosis?
The cell created in Meiosis is gametes
the genetic make up of an individual that can be homozygous or heterozygous
genotype

ACTGTC
TGACAG
Which tool is used to determine the possibility of a trait appearing after reproduction?
A punnett square
What are some advantages of Asexual Reproduction?
Fast process
No mate required
Less ATP needed
What is the chance of having a red flower if red is dominant to white? A heterozygous red flower is crossed with a white flower.
50%
Your traits or outward appearance
Phenotype
Which process is responsible for copying DNA?
Replication
What are disadvantages of sexual reproduction?
Lots of ATP needed
Slow process
This type of asexual reproduction in which bacteria make clones.
Binary Fission
Purpose of Mitosis?
Mitosis is to repair + grow the body + asexual reproduction
If the DNA has the following sequence, what would be the sequence of the resulting mRNA?
ATCGAC
UAGCUG
The name for a mistake in the DNA sequence that only affects a single nucleotide.
Point mutation or substitution
Due to these reasons, diversity increases.
Crossing-over, independent assortment, combining the DNA from both parents
True or False. The offspring are more resistant to disease.
False.
