100
Base that is not found in DNA but is found in RNA
What is uracil
100
This type of cell division
What is mitosis
100
The cell division that is used for asexual reproduction
What is mitosis?
100
Change in a population over time.
What is evolution
100
In an experiment, the variable that is the data the scientist will collect. (independent or dependent)
What is the dependent variable?
In this experiment it is the amount of fertilizer.
200
Contains a phosphate group, a deoxyribose sugar, and one nitrogenous base
What is a nucleotide
200
This type of cell division
What is meiosis?
200
The cell division that is necessary for sexual reproduction
What is meiosis?
200
Populations or individual organisms can evolve
what is populations?
200
the color that starch indicator turns if starch is present in a solution
What is black?
solution will turn from amber to black if starch is present. If it remains amber, no starch is present.
300
The molecule that determines the traits/characteristics an organism has
What is DNA
300
In meiosis, the daughter cells have this amount of DNA (chromosomes compared to the parent cell.
What is half (haploid)?
300
the offspring formed by asexual reproduction are
What is identical to the parent
300
These body parts have similar structure, but different jobs and suggest that the organisms have a common ancestor
What are homologous structures?
300
The lab technique that allows you to look at the DNA fragments of samples and compare who is related to who.
Gel electrophoresis
400
A DNA molecule replicated, it looks like this:
AGTACCGA
AAATGGCT
The special name that this is called
What is a mutation
400
The daughter cells produced in mitosis are __________________ to the parent cell
What is identical?
400
The offspring produced by sexual reproduction are
what is genetically similar but not the same as the parents
400
The population that is most likely to survive in a changing population
What is population 1? It has the greatest variation
400
Large ground finches and small tree finches could survive on the same island because
What is, they eat different types of food so they would not compete!
As long as the birds have different shaped bills causing them to eat different types of things, they will not compete. Remember that birds that eat plants can survive together as long as one is eating small seeds and the other eats large seeds.

Using the codon chart- the sequence of amino acids that would be in the protein coded for in this section of DNA would be:
ATA GGC CAT ATG
What is Try-Pro-Val-Try
500
The importance of replicating DNA before cell division (mitosis).
What is so each daughter cell gets the correct amount of DNA?
500
Two part question-
the process where sperm and eggs join together to form a zyogote is....
and what process allows the zygote to grow into a baby
What is fertilization?
What is mitosis?
500
The process that says that says that the organism best adapted to the environment will survive.
What is Natural selection?
sometimes called survival of the fittest.
500
The two living species that are most closely related are
What are W and Z.
remember, to be related you have to be connected. The shorter the lines, the more closely related the organisms are.
