100
This term describes "programmed cell death."
What is apoptosis?
100
What is the karyotype (# of homologues) of a daughter cell produced by mitosis?
What is diploid?
100
Meiosis is this type of cell reproduction.
What is sexual?
100

True or False? Gregor Mendel’s choice of organism (pea plant) was well suited to inheritance research because they had a very long generation time.

What is False?
100

Tay-Sachs disease is a recessive condition that affects the nervous system. If a homozygous dominant man (AA) and a homozygous recessive woman (aa) reproduce. What is the probability that they will produce a child with Tay-Sachs disease?

What is 0%
200
DNA replication occurs during this phase of the cell cycle.
What is Synthesis (S) Phase?
200
True or False? Prokaryotic cells reproduce asexually via mitosis.
What is False?
200
Crossing over occurs during this phase of meiosis.
What is Prophase I?
200

This is a dominance pattern in which crossing of two homozygotes produces heterozygous offspring that expresses an intermediate phenotype.

What is incomplete dominance?
200
This term describes the shedding of cancer cells from a malignant tumor.
What is metastasis?
300
The phases Gap 1, Synthesis, and Gap 2 make up this portion of the cell cycle.
What is interphase?
300
Separation of the sister chromatids occurs during this phase of mitosis.
What is Anaphase?
300
The products of meiosis are four ________ cells with only one homologue of each chromosome.
 What is haploid?
300

What is the probability that a cross between two heterozygous individuals (Rr x Rr) would produce a homozygous dominant (RR) offspring?

What is 25%
300
Cancer continue to divide and overcrowd because they lack this characteristic.
What is contact inhibition?
400
If the spindle fibers of the cytoskeleton do not properly attach to the kinetochore of the chromosomes, the cell SHOULD NOT pass this check point.
What is the Mitotic Phase Checkpoint?
400
These are the functions of mitosis.
What are growth and replacement/repair?
400
This is the main function of meiosis.
What is to maintain stable genome size (or cut the genome in half)?
400

Albinism is an autosomal recessive trait. 

An albino alligator is crossed with a pigmented alligator of unknown genotype. Half of the offspring are albino and half are pigmented. What is the genotype of the pigmented alligator?

What is heterozygous?
400
The telomere maintenance mechanism causes this condition/disease.
What is cancer?
500
This structure on a chromosome determines the number of cell divisions a particular cell will undergo.
What is the telomere?
500
This is a separate phase of the Mitotic stage of the the cell cycle in which there is total separation of the cytoplasm and total reformation of the plasma membrane.
What is cytokinesis?
500
Homologous pairs separate during this phase of meiosis.
What is Anaphase I?
500
This term describes genes that produce multiple traits.
What is pleiotropic?
500
Individuals with Type AB blood produce what type of antibodies that respond to A and B antigens?
What is None?
