Biomolecules
Molecules responsible for carrying genetic information?
What are nucleic acids/DNA?
Cell that has no membrane bound organelles such as mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum.
What are Prokaryotic Cells?
Complementary DNA : CTA GAC TGT
What is GAT CTG ACA?
study of heredity
What is genetics?
Hint Old people can eat bread
What is ecosystem?
Primary energy source. End in -ose
What are carbohydrates?
Viruses are considered non-living organisms because they replicate inside this organism
What is a host?
What nucleotide pairs ?
What is
Adenine and thymine
Cytosine and Guanine ?
What is a two-letter set that represents the alleles an organism possesses for a certain trait?
What is the genotype?
The brown-headed cowbirds lay eggs in other birds’ nests, tricking the birds into raising their young. The cowbirds hatch first and push the eggs out of the nest, and are then fed by the nest-builder.
What is parasitism?
hormones, fats, and insulation
What are lipids?
Site for photosynthesis in plants.
What is chloroplasts?
Transcribe the DNA : CTA GAC TGT
What are GAU CUG ACA?
What is the observable expression (physical appearance) of an organism's genes?
What is the phenotype?
type of interaction occurs between the remora and its host organism, where the larger organism is typically unaware of and unaffected by the remora?
What is commensalism?
transport, enzymes, steroids
What are proteins?
Site for cellular respiration in cells .
What is the mitochondria?
genetic sequences inside DNA structure
What are the nitrogenous bases?
What is a genotype with two different alleles?
What is heterozygous?
source of energy for the energy pyramid
What is sun ?
Type of protein, that speeds up chemical reactions.
What are Enzymes?
site of cellular transport in charge of maintaining homeostasis.
What is cell membrane?
uses codon chart to code for amino acids.
What is translation?
What is an allele that will not determine the phenotype unless the genotype is homozygous in that allele?
What is a recessive allele?
differences in species, more frequency of genes
What is genetic diversity?
