100
Watson and Crick used this term to describe the shape of DNA.
What is a double helix?
100

This is the process where the results are a copy of a molecules of DNA 

What DNA replication?

100

A long, single stranded sequence of RNA that carries codes to the ribosome.

What is messenger RNA (mRNA)?

100

Genes are located on this X like structure.

What is a chromosome?

100

This chemical substance is used to cut and paste specific genes during genetic engineering.

What are (restriction) enzymes?

200

The sugars and the phosphates make up this part of DNA.

What is the "backbone of a DNA molecule"?

200

This process can take one cell and develop an entire identical organism.

What is cloning?

200

This type of RNA carries an amino acid to build proteins. 

What is transfer RNA (tRNA)?

200

This is the process when a specific DNA sequence is inserted into another piece of DNA.

What is genetic engineering?

200

An abnormal growth of cells from a mutation.

What is cancer?

300
The type of bond that holds bases together in the double helix.
What is a hydrogen bond?
300

The process when DNA is converted to RNA.

What is transcription?

300
With RNA, A (adenine) binds with this other base.
What is U (uracil)?
300

A pairing of these alleles allow for the dominant trait to be shown, even though the recessive allele is also present.

What is heterozygous? (Bb)

300

This production of gametes allows for variation in sexually reproducing organisms.

What is meiosis?

400
A (nitrogenous) base, a sugar, and a phosphate.
What are the 3 parts of a nucleotide?
400

The enzyme that is used to make a copy of a DNA molecule.

What is DNA polymerase?

400

This is where transcription of RNA takes place.

What is the nucleus?

400

This type of chart will show the number of offspring, generations, gender and who has specific traits.

What is a pedigree chart?

400

When a base is incorrectly removed from the DNA sequence.

What is a deletion mutation?

500
He is credited with the discovery that the amount of G's was roughly equal to the amount of C's (and A's with T's) in several samples of DNA.
Who is Erwin Chargaff?
500

Once translation is finished, then this process is over.

What is protein synthesis?

500

The 3 letter bases that RNA uses are known as this.

What are codons?

500

Expression of genes can be influenced by DNA this other factor.

What is the environment?

500

This lab technique allows us to compare DNA by cutting it up and matching pieces based on size.

What is Gel Electrophoresis?
