100

This is where chromosomes are replicated and different checkpoints to make sure the replication was done correctly

Cell Cycle

100

The term for when alleles of the same type are paired together?

Homologous

100

describes a cell that contain two copies of each chromosome.

Diploid cell

100

is the change in the characteristics of a species over several generations and relies on the process of natural selection.

Evolution

100

structures that are similar in related organisms because they were inherited from a common ancestor. These structures may or may not have the same function in the descendants.

What kind of structure is this and provide an example 

Homologous structures

200

What are the 4 different parts of the cell cycle?

G1,S,G2, M phase

200

If the offspring of 2 individuals is a mixture of both their traits we can say that the organism shows _______________ ___________.

Incomplete dominance

200

describes a cell that contains half the number of normal chromosomes?

Haploid cell

200

in nature, there is competition to survive and reproduce.  This can be referred to as?

Survival of the fittest

200

are structures that are similar in unrelated organisms. The structures are similar because they evolved to do the same job, not because they were inherited from a common ancestor. 

What type of structure is this?

Provide example

Analogous structures


300
Binary Fission is

The process prokaryotic cells use to divide

300

If the offspring of 2 individuals shows a combination of both their traits we can say that the offspring shows _____________.

Codomiance

300

What are the stages of meiosis in order?

Interphase, (meiosis 1) prophase 1, metaphase 1, anaphase 1, telophase 1, (meiosis 2) prophase 2, metaphase 2, anaphase 2, telophase 2

300

The organisms ability to pass along its genetic information is known as

Fitness

300

Structures that have lost their function in the present day organism

What type of structure is this and provide an example

Vestigal structures
400

Genetic information is stored in these when the cell is dividing

Chromosomes

400

When we have organisms that have 2 different genes to determine what traits will be shown we can say that have something called?

Epistasis

400

What is the end result of meiosis?

4 haploid daughter cells

400

What are the 3 different types of evolution?

Convergent, divergent, and co-evolution

400

When organisms evolve to become more different over time and come from one common linage

Divergent evolution

500

In what phase(s) are checkpoints located in the cell cycle?

G1 and G2

500

A Species of cats are epistasis.  The genotypes of both the parent cats are RrCc and rrcc.  R=Red r=orange C=color will be shown.  

Tell me the % chance the 2 cats offspring will have a red coat.

25%

500

How does meiosis differ from mitosis?

2 sets of cell division, 4 haploid cells instead of 2 genetically identical cells

500

What is the way modern scientists analyze if species are related?

Amino Acid Sequencing

500

When organisms evolve to be similar over time due to similar environmental conditions.  What type of evolution is this?

Convergent evolution
