100
This trait always shows up if the allele is present
What is Dominant or Dominant phenotype?
100
The shape of a DNA molecule is called this
What is a Double Helix
100
This means to pass on genes to offspring to ensure the survival of the species
What is the definition of reproduction?
100
This is the best definition of a genetic mutation
A) An error in a code that gives the organism an edge in surviving.
B) A permanent change in the DNA sequence that makes up a gene of an organism.
C) A change in the DNA that always harms an organism.
What is option B?
100
This type of mutation happens when you remove bases from DNA
What is Deletion?
200
This is a term when a genotype has the same alleles
What is Homozygous?
200
Put these in order from BIGGEST to smallest
Gene, DNA, Cell, Chromosome, Nucleus
What is Cell, Nucleus, Chromosome, Gene, DNA
200
The form of asexual reproduction this picture illustrates
What is Cell Division or Mitosis?
200
When a mutation changes a DNA section from "GGA" to "GCA", this is likely to happen to the final protein
What is change or doesn't work?
200
A baby's life started as the coming together of two specialized cells that formed a fertilized egg. These are the two specialized cells...
What are egg and sperm?
300
This is a phenotype that shows up if no dominant allele is present
What is Recessive?
300
Adenine only with Thymine
&
Cytosine only with Guanine
What are the correct nitrogenous base pairings that are in DNA?
300
This type of reproduction results in an exact copy of an organism
What is Asexual Reproduction?
300
This is a type DNA mutation that helps the organism and increases chance of survival
(i.e., beneficial, harmful, benign)
What is a beneficial mutation?
300
This X shaped structure inside the nucleus is made up of long molecules of DNA
What is/are Chromosomes?
400
These are different forms of a gene for a trait
What are Alleles?
400
The DNA in a cell is primarily found in this location
What is the Nucleus?
400
This type of reproduction produces a greater variation among offspring?
What is Sexual Reproduction?
400
This is a type of DNA mutation that decreases chance of survival
(i.e., beneficial, harmful, benign)
What is harmful or harmful mutation?
400
This is how many chromosomes are in body cells
What is 46 chromosomes?
What is 46?
500
This is a genotypes made of two different alleles
What is Heterozygous?
500
This is a segment (small piece) of a chromosome that determines a trait
What is a Gene?
500
This process occurs when a starfish grows a new arm to replace one that has been broken off
What is budding or regeneration?
500
This is what caused the sequence change below
ACCGGTCCGAG

B) two genes from each parent
C) one gene from the father only
D) two genes from the mother only
What is option A?
