Inheritance
When sexual cells split while swapping chromosomes
What is meiosis
When somatic cells split into 2 identical pairs
What is mitosis
the place where a protein is synthesized
what is a ribosome
the process of continuous change and development in a species
What is evolution?
A trait that only appears when homozygous. If there is a different type allele then the trait will not show up.
What is a recessive allele
90% of the cell cycle where cell duplicates organelles and chromosomes
Interphase
A long chain of amino acids
What is a polypeptide?
A mutation where the changed base(s) does not affect the amino acid.
What is a silent mutation?
A tool to find out the mode of inheritance
The g2 phase
The cell rapidly grows produces specific proteins required for division, duplicates its centrosomes, and checks the replicated DNA for any errors
Macromolecule made of polypeptides and/or amino acids
What is a protein
What is an X-linked mutation?
A type of punnett square that is used to predict how 2 different traits are inherited together
What is a dihybrid cross square
An organelle which produces parts that make up ribosomes
nucleolus
Deadliest types of mutations.
What are frame shift mutations (insertion+deletion acceptable)
Cells with only 1 set of chromosomes
What are haploid cells?
A stage where the chromosomes move to opposite ends of the cell
What is anaphase?
A type of enzyme that adds the new bases to the corresponding bases when the dna strand is split during dna replication
what is dna polymerase
Many descendants of a european royal had this disease. Said royal did not have the disease but they were a carrier for the gene.
What is hemophelia?
