100

This trait will show up if you have at least one copy of it. 

What is a dominant trait?

100

DNA is found here in a cell.

What is in the nucleus? 

100

All living things are made up of these

What are cells?

100

Within the nucleus, this copies DNA.

What is mRNA? 

100

The number of kingdoms.

What is six?

200

Two copies of the same allele. 

What is homozygous? 

200

Condensed DNA is known as this (double rod structures). 

What are chromosomes? 

200

These are the primary purposes of cell division and mitosis.

What are growth and repair and replacement of old cells in our bodies?

200

When the mRNA leaves the nucleus, it goes to this part of the cell to be read.

What is the ribosome? 

200

These types of cells contain a nucleus, while prokaryotic cells do not. 

What are eukaryotic cells?

300

The physical characteristic that is seen.

What is a phenotype? 

300

DNA is made up of four different types of these.

What are bases?

300

This kingdom contains organisms that are multicellular and autotrophic.

What are plants?

300

Protein will code for these in an organism.

What are traits?

300

A change in the DNA sequence. 

What is a mutation? 

400

These are different forms of a gene.

What is an allele?

400

Genes will code for these in an organism.

What is a protein?

400

These are the main differences between asexual and sexual reproduction (you must name two differences). 

What are genetic variation, number of parents involved, and time and energy?

400
The ribosome reads the mRNA in triple letters called these.

What are codons? 

400

This is heredity.

What is the process of parents passing on certain traits to their offspring? 

500

This is the probability for each genotype when two heterozygous individuals cross.

What is 25% Homozygous Dominant, 25% Homozygous Recessive, and 50% Heterozygous.

500

These make up protein when they are bonded together.

What are amino acids?

500

This is what you end up with after cell division/mitosis has occurred. 

What are identical daughter cells?

500
The ribosome will use the triple letters of mRNA code to determine the correct order of these, which then bond together to create a protein.

What are the amino acids?

500

This type of cell transports oxygen throughout the body.

What is a red blood cell?
