Pieces of you
A busy little world
Let's split
It's in the genes

The cohesion of water results from the formation of these bonds between the molecules.

hydrogen bonds

100

This tiny organelle manufactures proteins.

ribosomes

100

The stages of interphase include G1, G2, and this.

S

100

The term for when many genes influence a single phenotype.

polygenic inheritance

100

Nucleotides contain three parts: a sugar, a phosphate, and one of these.

nitrogenous base

200

These are the monomers of carbohydrates.

Monosaccharides

200

This largely empty bag exists in plant cells but not animal cells.

central vacuole

200

In humans, zygotes undergo this process to become adults.

mitosis

200

The offspring phenotype ratio of a dihybrid cross.

9:3:3:1

200

In DNA a purine nucleotide is always paired with one of these.

pyrimidine

300

Protein shape is largely determined by its tertiary folding, caused by interactions between these parts of amino acids.

R groups

300

The “FedEx” of the cell.

Golgi Apparatus

300

Chromosomes line up during this phase of mitosis.

metaphase

300

This type of dominance causes heterozygotes to express two different phenotypes simultaneously.

codominance

300

This term refers to the fact that two complementary strands of DNA run in opposite directions.

antiparallel

400

The opposite of a dehydration reaction.

hydrolysis

400

A cell will shrink when placed in this type of solution.

hypertonic

400

These structures move to either side of the cell to being organizing cell division.

centrosomes/centrioles

400

This was Mendel’s term for homozygous pea plants.

true-breeding

400

This is the complementary DNA sequence to ATC.

TAG

500

These proteins reduce the activation energy of chemical reactions.

enzymes

500

In this type of transport, molecules move up their concentration gradient.

active transport

500

Cells become haploid at this point in meiosis.

After meiosis I

500

An inactivated X chromosome in females.

Barr body

500

In the lecture about Alternation of Generations, these movie characters were used to represent the adult form of an unfertilized egg.
