Central Dogma
What kind of bond is between nitrogenous base pairs? A-T C-G
Hydrogen Bond
What is the difference between Phenotype and Genotype?
Phenotype is a visible trait. Genotype is what codes for that trait.
A population of organisms remain unchanged over a large portion of time.
Ex: Horseshoe crabs
TRUE or FALSE: Mitochondria carry both the mother and fathers DNA.
FALSE: only the mothers DNA is conserved in the mitochondria.
DAILY DOUBLE: What are some ways in which bacteria are beneficial?
They help decompose organic matter, Aid in the nitrogen cycle, they have a role in drugs such as penicillin, they are present in cheese and yogurt. Help in the human digestive system.
DAILY DOUBLE: Label the parts of Translation.
Answer on Board: mRNA, tRNA and rRNA
What would be the offspring produced by parents with genotypes Bb and BB reproducing?
BB and Bb
What is the difference between phyletic gradualism and punctuated equilibrium?
Phyletic gradualism is a slow and steady change in a population over time, shown by transitional fossils.
Punctuated Equilibrium is a quick change in the population over a period of time.
Are Bacteria Prokaryotic or Eukaryotic Cells? Why?
Prokaryotic
What is the difference between predation and competition?
Predation has a predator hunting for prey. Competition consists of different species competing for the same food source.
Name the amino acid needed to start the process of translation.
Methionine
What is the difference between a gene and a chromosome?
a gene is a section of DNA that codes for a protein.
a chromosome is made of strands of DNA wrapped around histones.Describe the process that occurs during Natural Selection.
Variation in traits, preferential mating, appearance of those traits in more offspring.
DAILY DOUBLE: Where in Eukaryotic cells does translation take place?
In the cytoplasm or the ribosome to be exact.
What are two abiotic* factors that will limit the growth of a population?
extreme weather and disease
What are two of the components of a double helix of DNA?
A sugar group, a phosphate group, nitrogenous bases
What is the result of incomplete dominance in an organisms offspring?
There is offspring with a mix of both traits from the parents. Ex: red flower and white flower producing a pink flower.
DAILY DOUBLE: Label the types of evolution on the board.
On the board
What are three structures present in both plant and animal eukaryotic cells?
Ribosomes, Mitochondria, Golgi Apparatus, Nucleus, endoplasmic reticulum
Name a type of symbiotic relationship and give an example of that from real life.
mutualism, commensalism, parasitism
What type of mutation is below?
ATG ACC AGG AGT ACT GCG GGG
ATG ACA GGA GTA CTG CGG GG

DAILY DOUBLE: complete the Punnett square for parents for genotypes GgNn and GGNn
On board
What are the two reproductive barriers of speciation?
Geographic Isolation and Breeding at different times
How did Eukaryotic cells evolve?
The infolding of prokaryotic cells eventually creating a nucleus around the DNA.
What happens to a cell if you were to place it in a hypertonic environment?
Cell shrinks; Plasmolysis
