All life is specified by this

What is a genome?

100

The blueprint for life

What is DNA?

100

This is the DNA-containing structure that carries genetic material from one generation to the next

What is a chromosome?

100

This gives organisms the codes for their traits, development, etc.

What is DNA?

100

A segment of DNA that codes for a particular trait or protein

What is a gene?

200

This is what codons allow you to predict (final product of reading a codon chart)

What is amino acids?

200

Name for a 3 base sequence in DNA or RNA

What is a codon?

200

The 3 types of RNA

What is mRNA, rRNA, tRNA?

200

The structure (shape) of a chromosome

What is a double helix?

200

This makes up DNA

What is nucleotides?

300

Definition for genome

What is the total DNA in an organism?

300

The type of RNA that has codons

What is mRNA?

300

The process of proteins building cells

What is protein synthesis?

300

The name of each side of a chromosome

What is a chromatid?

300

The 4 bases of DNA

What is adenine, thymine, guanine, cytosine?

400

The name for the first step of central dogma

What is transcription?

400

The name for the second step of central dogma

What is translation?

400

The molecule that must enter the process for protein synthesis to occur

What is RNA?

400

Where two chromatids connect

What is a centromere?

400

The 4 bases of RNA

What is adenine, uracil, guanine, cytosine

500

Find the amino acid for the GUA codon


What is valine?

500

The steps of central dogma

DNA gives instructions → RNA carries instructions to ribosomes → proteins

500

The 3 differences between RNA and DNA

  1. Contains the sugar ribose

  2. Single stranded, not double like DNA (helix)

  3. Uracil pairs with adenine in base pairs, replaces thymine

500

How many pairs of chromosomes humans have

What is 23?

500

B (dom.) = Brown

b (rec.) = black

T = Tall

t= short

Cross two heterozygous (BbTt) and give the phenotypic ratios
