Genetics
DNA segments which determine specific traits.
What is a gene?
This type of reproduction involves only one parent and produces genetically identical offspring.
What is asexual reproduction.
This contraceptive method physically blocks sperm from reaching the egg.
What is the barrier method.
The statement used to remember the difference between meiosis and mitosis.
What is from my head to my toes-is
An individual with two identical alleles for a given trait is described as this.
What is homozygous?
In sexual reproduction, offspring inherit genetic material from this number of parents.
What is 2 parents
What section(s) of the female reproductive are severed and tied during female sterilization
What are the fallopian tubes.
This process involves the division of a cell into two identical daughter cells.
What is mitosis.
If a person has one recessive allele and one dominant allele for a trait, they are said to be this.
What is heterozygous?
This process, involving the splitting of an organism into parts, is a form of asexual reproduction.
What is fragmentation.
In male sterilization, this structure is cut or sealed to prevent sperm from leaving the body.
What is the vas deferens.
This phase of mitosis is characterized by the alignment of chromosomes at the cell's equatorial plane.
What is metaphase.
This organelle is crucial for cell division and contains the cell's genetic material.
What is the nucleus.
The advantage of sexual reproduction over asexual reproduction is primarily attributed to this process.
What is genetic variation
The Copper IUD is a form of this type of contraceptive that can be inserted into the uterus.
What is barrier method.
This organelle is crucial for cell division and contains the cell's genetic material.
What is the nucleus.
Yeast cells use this form of reproduction which results in the smell of bread.
What is budding
The name brand often associated with hormonal injection (mentioned by Ms. Trytten)
What is the depo shot.
Meiosis results in the formation of these haploid cells, which are essential for sexual reproduction.
What are gametes
