100
The phase that cells spend most of their time in.
What is Interphase?
100
He studied heredity and genetics.
Who is Gregor Mendel?
100
This shape represents a female in a pedigree.
What is a circle?
100
He is responsible for developing the theory of natural selection.
Who is Charles Darwin?
100
This is the gender chromosomes for a female.
What is XX?
200
Produces genetically identical cells.
What is Mitosis?
200
this is the name of an organism that has two different alleles (one capital and one lowercase).
What is heterozygous?
200
This shape represents a male.
What is a square?
200
This is a type of reproduction in which the offspring are identical to the parent.
What is asexual reproduction?
200
The gender chromosomes for a male
What is XY?
300
This in Meiosis 1 leads to genetic diversity. Involved chromosome movement.
What is crossing over?
300
This is the probability of the offspring having the dominant gene in a BBxbb cross.
What is 100%
300
The main way to tell if a disease is dominant or recessive is by looking at these people on a pedigree.
Who are the parents?
300
This type of trait will show only when the offspring have 2 alleles for the trait.
What is recessive?
300
This type of reproduction causes more genetic diversity.
What is sexual reproduction?
400
This type of cell goes through mitosis.
What is body cell?
400
This is the probability of an offspring having the recessive trait in the cross BBxbb.
What is 0%
400
this represents a person with the disease.
What is a colored in circle or square?
400
This calculates the probability that offspring will inherit a specific trait.
What is a Punnett Square?
400
This is likely to have occurred in DNA that caused a change in the gene sequence.
What is a mutation?
500
True or False: Meiosis only happens to cells one time.
What is true?
500
If 2 black guinea pigs have a litter of 4 black guinea pigs and 2 white guinea pigs this is the most likely type of trait.
What is recessive?
500
A tree that charts how a trait is passed from generation to generation.
What is a pedigree?
500
This is the genetic material of an organism.
What is DNA?
500
The genetic makeup of an organism.
What is genotype?
