This is the definition of a constant.
What is a variable that you keep the same throughout entire experiment?

These are the locations of transcription and translation in a eukaryotic cell.
What is transcription in the nucleus and translation in the cytoplasm/ribosomes?
200
This is the unit of % (w/v).
What is g/mL?
200
These are the four areas of Biotechnology
What is Medical/Pharmaceutical, Agricultural, Diagnostic, and Industrial/Environmental?

These are the two types of restriction enzymes.
What are sticky and blunt?
300
These are three things required for a valid experiment.
What are controls, one variable, a testable hypothesis, etc.
300
These are the three main types of mutations
What are missense, nonsense, and frameshift?

This is the type of funding that Universities and non-profit organization usually receive.
What is grants or government money?
300
This is the definition of a vector.
What is something that allows transportation of DNA from one organism to another?

These are the three modifications made to mRNA before translation.
What are 5' cap, poly A tail, and splicing out introns?

This is the definition of a positive and negative control.
Positive- something you know the positive outcome before you start (it has been positive in the past) Negative- a sample that is lacking the actual thing being tested (ex. lacking DNA when genotyping)
