Phases of Meiosis
100
Use of this can predict the probable outcomes of a genetic cross.
What is a Punnett Square?
100
This is the term for a unique copy of a given trait.
What is an allele?
100
This process produces two genetically identical daughter cells.
What is Mitosis?
100
A lowercase letter is used to refer to this version of a trait.
What is a recessive allele?
100
This is the phase during which cells are replicating DNA. (Meiosis and Mitosis)
What is Interphase?
200
A "TT" individual and a "tt" individual are crossed with each other. Their offspring will carry these copies of that gene.
What is one of each, "Tt", or they will be heterozygous?
200
This is the name for the division of the cytoplasm that occurs after mitosis, and each of the two rounds of meiosis.
What is Cytokinesis?
200
This process produces 4 genetically different daughter cells, each with half the normal number of chromosomes.
What is Meiosis?
200
The letters "Tt", "Bb", and "Pp" would all refer to examples of this.
What are heterozygotes, or heterozygous individuals?
200
During this phase of Meiosis (and Mitosis) chromosomes line up along the center of the dividing cell.
What is Metaphase? (Any of them)
300
A "Tt" individual and a "tt" individual are crossed with each other. Their offspring will carry these copies of that gene.
What is two will be "Tt" or heterozygous, and two will be "tt" or homozygous recessive?
300
This is the term for the physical traits that an organism is displaying.
What is its phenotype?
300
This type of reproduction requires only one parent organism.
What is asexual reproduction?
300
An individual labeled with two capital letters would be referred to as this.
What is homozygous dominant?
300
During this phase of meiosis 4 new nuclear membranes begin to form around the DNA.
What is Telophase II?
400
This is a process by which the rates of crossover between genes are used to determine their location on a chromosome.
What is gene mapping?
400
The set of alleles which an individual holds for a given trait are known as its.
What is its genotype?
400
This type of reproduction demands more time and energy of the organisms and requires two partners.
What is sexual reproduction?
400
In a pedigree a male individual displaying a trait of interest will be represented by this.
What is a filled in square?
400
During this phase of Meiosis sister chromatids are separated and start to move to opposite sides of the cell.
What is Anaphase II?
500
Two genes are separated by crossing over very frequently, 49% of the time, their relative locations are likely to be this.
What is far apart?
500
The location on a chromosome where a given trait resides is known as.
What is the locus?
500
In the F1 generation Mendel saw all of his short plants "disappear." They reappeared in the F2 generation with roughly this ratio.
What is 3:1 tall to short?
500
The distance between two traits on a chromosome is thought of in terms these units.
What are map units?
500
Crossing over occurs during this phase of Meiosis.
What is Prophase I?
