Why must our cells go through Mitosis?
To create more cells
Meiosis results in
4 haploid daughter cells
What is DNA
Genetic Material that makes up who we are! Contains genetic material that we inherit from our parents. Deoxyribonucleic Acid
What are the three types of RNA:
A: rRNA: Ribosomal RNA
B. tRNA: Transfer RNA
C. mRNA: Messenger RNA
What is a Gene?
a unit of heredity which is transferred from a parent to offspring and is held to determine some characteristic of the offspring.
Which phase is the following image representing in Mitosis?
Telophase
What type of cells undergo meiosis?
Explain the structure of a DNA molecule
What is the mRNA code for the following DNA Code:
C C C A C G T C T
G G G U G C A G A
Is the following heterozygous or Homozygous?
TT
Homozygous
What is the difference between Chromatids and Chromosomes?
Chromatids have no shape or structure, Chromosomes are two chromatids attached together.
What is crossing over?
The exchange of genes between homologous chromosomes resulting in a mixture of genetic material in an offspring.
A nucleotide bonds with?
T nucleotide
What is the first step of Protein Synthesis?
Transcription:
DNA serves as a template for RNA production.
Is the following homozygous dominant or recessive?
tt
Homozygous recessive
What is G0
Phase where cells do not replicate.
Which phase is the following:
Metaphase 1
Where does DNA Replication take place
In the nucleus
What is translation?
translation is the process in which ribosomes in the cytoplasm or ER synthesize proteins after the process of transcription of DNA to RNA in the cell's nucleus
In Squidward’s family, a blue body color (B) is dominant to green (b). Determine the phenotype for the following:
Bb
Blue body color
Describe Interphase
The preparation phases for Mitosis and Cell Division
Which phase is the following:
Anaphase II
An enzyme that adds complementary nucleotides to the template strand of the unzipped double helix until the entire molecule has been replicated.
DNA Polymerase
AUG
Start Codon: Methionine
