Cell Division
The structure plants make during cytokinesis
What is a cell plate?
Different forms of a gene
What are alleles?
The letters on the outside of the Punnett stand for...
What is parent alleles?
The mRNA sequence complementary to the DNA sequence: GCTTAA
What is CGAAUU?
The second step in translation
What is elongation?
The 6 stages of cell division in order.
What is interphase, mitosis (prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase), and cytokinesis?
An organism with 2 identical alleles for a trait
What is homozygous/purebred?
The genotype in which the recessive gene must show
What is homozygous recessive?
A section of DNA that contains the information to code for a single protein
What is a gene?
The place mRNA attaches to
What is ribosome?
The 3 parts of interphase
What is cell growth, division preparation, and DNA replication?
The organism's physical appearance
What is phenotype?
In corn plants, normal height, N, is dominant to short height, n. Calculate the probability of heterozygous offspring from 1 heterozygous parent and one homozygous dominant parent.
What is 1/2?
The 3-base sequence on mRNA
What is a codon?
One codon codes for this.
What is an amino acid?
The number of chromosomes in each daughter cell if the parent body cell of an organism has 10 chromosomes.
What is 10 chromosomes?
The allele that is always expressed when present
What is dominant allele?
The phenotype expressed in this genotype: RR
What is homozygous dominant?
The location of transcription in the cell
What is the nucleus?
The 3 parts of tRNA
What is amino acid, tRNA, and anticodon?
The stage(s) in mitosis when the nuclear membrane is present
What are prophase and telophase?
The genotypes (as alleles) of all F2 offspring in Mendel's experiments
What is 2 tall alleles, 1 tall & 1 short allele, and 2 short alleles?
The color of flowers in snap dragons shows incomplete dominance. Red (CRCR) and white (CWCW) are homozygous and pink (CRCW) is heterozygous. Calculate the probability of red offspring from one red and one pink snapdragon.
What is 1/2?
The thing responsible for unwinding DNA in transcription.
What is an enzyme?
The name of the amino acid coded from the START codon.
What is methionine?
