Genetics
100
Made of two alleles (set of DNA from each parent).
What is a gene?
100
Messenger RNA strand.
What is mRNA?
100
Made outside of the nucleus (in the cytoplasm) by the ribosomes.
What are the proteins?
100
Active cycle where DNA or RNA destroy the DNA of the host cell and the virus replicates producing virus babies.
What is the Lytic Cycle?
100
Characteristics passed from parent to offspring.
What is a trait?
200
Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine, and Thymine.
What are the Nitrogenous bases?
200
Messenger RNA (mRNA), ribosomal RNA (rRNA), and transfer RNA (tRNA).
What are the three types of RNA?
200
The three letter code on the mRNA.
What is a codon?
200
Characterized by integration of the bacteriophage nucleic acid into the host bacterium's genome.
What is the Lysogenic Cycle?
200
Organisms that have two identical alleles for a trait.
What is homozygous?
300
Can only form between certain base pairs.
What are Hydrogen bonds?
300
RNA stands for.
What is Ribonucleic acid?
300
The code on the different tRNA types.
What is the anticodon?
300
Surrounded by an outer protein coat.
What is a capsid?
300
Organisms that have two different alleles for the same trait.
What is heterozygous?
400
Deletion, substitution, insertion, translocation, inversion, and duplication.
What are the types of mutations?
400
Ribosomes are made up of several dozen proteins (including a form of RNA).
What is rRNA?
400
Transcription, DNA replication, and translation.
What are the steps of protein synthesis?
400
Viruses that contain RNA instead of DNA.
What is retroviruses?
400
Produces seeds that have two different parent traits combined.
What is Cross-pollination?
500
GATTACA and CTAATGT.
What are the complimentary bases?
500
Adenine, Guanine, Uracil, and Cytosine.
What are the bases of RNA?
500
An enzyme that separates the DNA strands and makes the mRNA strand.
What is the RNA polymerase?
500
It doesn't have a metabolism or enzymes to make proteins.
Why is a virus non-living?
500
Causes incomplete dominance. The allele of neither parent is fully expressed.
What is intermediate inheritance?
