DNA
The number of hydrogen bases that connects A to T
What is two?
This type of RNA is made from DNA.
What is mRNA?
The longest phase of the cell cycle in which cell growth occurs.
What is Interphase or G1?
The longest phase of Mitosis.
What is prophase?
Meiosis ends in this number of cells.
What is four?
This property of DNA allows for replication.
What is complementary base pairing?
The first step in Protein Synthesis.
What is transcription?
The step of the Cell Cycle in which DNA is replicated.
What is S or Synthesis?
The step in Mitosis in which the sister chromatids separate.
What is anaphase?
What is gamete or sperm/egg?
An unintentional change in the DNA sequence.
What is a mutation?
Three bases of mRNA are called this.
What is a codon?
Can occur with the cell cycle is uncontrolled.
What is cancer?
The step in Mitosis in which the nucleus reforms.
What is telophase?
This process occurs during Prophase I and causes genetic variation.
What is crossing over?
The three parts to a nucleotide.
The second step in Protein Synthesis in which the amino acids are bonded together.
What is translation?
This part of the cell attaches the chromatids/chromosomes to the spindle fibers.
What is a centromere?
The separation of the cytoplasm occurs in a process known as this.
What is cleavage?
The step of Meiosis in which the homologous chromosomes line up at the equator of the cell.
What is Metaphase I?
A change in the base pairing can affect this.
What is the amino acid sequence?
A long chain of amino acids is called this.
What is a polypeptide?
The description word for DNA in the Interphase step of the cell cycle.
What is chromatin?
What is genetically identical?
The random distribution of chromosomes into the gametes during anaphase II that leads to genetic variation.
What is independent assortment?
