Selective breeding is also known as this

What is artificial selection?


100

Cloning is this type of reproduction

Asexual

100

Used to cut DNA like little scissors

Enzymes


100

Two uses for gel electrophoresis

Forensics & Paternity Tests

100

DNA is located in this organelle

Nucleus

200

Farmers who selectively breed crops choose desirable _______________

Traits

200

The first cloned mammal, in 1996

Dolly the sheep

200

The technique used to make a GMO

Genetic Engineering

200

What charge does DNA have?

Negative

200

DNA codes for this type of molecule

Protein

300

Mixing two similar species together (ie a horse and a donkey)

What is a hybrid?

300

During mammalian cloning, which organelle is transferred into an egg cell

Nucleus


300

A common human hormone produced by genetically engineered bacteria

Insulin

300

What is responsible for the movement of DNA in the gel

Electrical Current

300

The single stranded messenger between DNA and the ribosome

mRNA

400

In order to selectively breed an organism, it must do this kind of reproduction

Sexual Reproduction




400

Cloning involves this type of cell division

Mitosis

400

Name 2 ways humans can benefit from Genetically modified crops

Golden rice, crispr, spider silk, impossible burger etc

400

What scientists use to cut up DNA before putting it into the wells

Restriction Enzymes

400
A sequence of three nitrogenous bases - codes for an amino acid

Codon


500

Two disadvantages of selective breeding

Reduced biodiversity and increased inbreeding leads to mutations

500

If the nuclear donor was white, the surrogate mother was black, and the egg donor was brown - the mouse pup would be this color

White

What needs to happen after the DNA is recombined for the trait to be passed on to other cells

Mitosis/DNA & Cell replication

500

The size of DNA bands you'd find furthest from the wells

Smallest

500

The central dogma of genetics

DNA -> RNA -> Protein -> Trait
