Unit 1
This acronym describes the requirements and characteristics of all living organisms, also synonyms with the word “command”
What is DECREE
This is millions of codes put together in a double helix structure that determines almost everything that goes into an organism, and is contained in the nucleus for eukaryotes.
What is DNA
The term for the major events that occur in order for a cell to use the information its genes have, otherwise known as the term for transcription and translation that is vital to all biology.
What is THE CENTRAL DOGMA
This scientist formulated the theory of evolution by natural selection.
Who is Darwin
This term describes the relationship between chromosome 1 from your mom, compared to chromosome 1 from your dad
What is HOMOLOGOUS
This bundle of genetic code is not living, is encapsulated in a capsid without a membrane, and invades hosts to reproduce copies of its genetic material.
What is a VIRUS
This is the end of a DNA structure that contains the Phosphate group and cannot have another base be added to it.
What is the 5’ END
Genotype is to DNA sequence as phenotype is to _____
What is AMION ACID SEQUENCE
This is the term that describes mutations in relation to natural selection, because if natural selection is non-random…
What is RANDOM
This protein holds DNA closer together in eukaryotes and is shared between archaea and eukarya but not bacteria
What are histones
A population can accomplish this by having a variety of allele frequency change over time, but an individual cannot do this.
What is EVOLVE
This is the process of adding a 5’ cap, poly-a tail, and splicing with the spliceosome.
What is RNA PROCESSING
Many different proteins are within your cells, if you take two cells from the same individual and they have different proteins, they must have different ______
What are ACTIVATORS
Is it true or false that bacteria adapt resistance as a result of being put in antibiotics and choose to have higher fitness
What is FALSE
Deciding what to turn on and off in a cell is known as gene ____
What is REGULATION
These three requirements are necessary for a biologist to understand whether evolution can act on a certain trait.
What is variation, heritability, and fitness difference
If you are given bacteria and they do not have radioactive DNA, you put them into radioactive solution when they replicate, this is the amount of molecules that contain at least one strand of radiation after two rounds of replication if the semi-conservative model is true.
What is 100% (ALL)
This is where transcription starts, and where translation starts, respectively.
What is the +1 and start codon.
This term describes where the mutation occurred that changed the stickleback from having a spine or not
What is the SWITCH
A protein functions in the cytoplasm and is where it carries out its job, you would expect to find ____ amino acids on the exterior of the protein
What is HYDROPHILIC
These organisms are eukaryotes with the following traits: uni or multicellular, many are aquatic, they can be autotrophs or heterotrophs, some are even mixotrophs, and they cannot be classified as other popular eukaryote clades as they are paraphyletic.
What are PROTISTS
This is the number of DNA molecules in a human cell that is in metaphase 2 of a human during mitosis, if they have 46 unreplicated chromosomes before mitosis (not split yet)
What are 46 MOLECULES (46 unreplicated, so 92 after replication, divide by 2 after meiosis one so back to 46, and metaphase they havent split yet)
These parts of a polypeptide are important for the peptide bond and are involved in its formation.
What are the AMINO AND CARBOXYL GROUPS
Examples of these are as follows, ”individuals change over their lifetime, resulting in evolution,” and “natural selection results in populations that are perfectly adapted to their environment”
What are/is (a) MISCONCEPTION(S) (OF EVOLUTION)
In order to know if a bundle of code is the template or coding strand you look at the _____, and the first letter of the template strand’s ____ is the letter _
What is START CODON, and START CODON, T
