True or False: Proto-Oncogenes mutate from oncogenes.
What is False
What scientist proposed inheritance by acquired traits?
Lamarck
What happens when glucose is absent in the lac operon?
CAP binds to a site near the lac promoter
"Survival of the Fittest" describes what theory…
Natural Selection
The control of gene expression at the RNA level. It occurs once the RNA polymerase has been attached to the gene's promoter and is synthesizing the nucleotide sequence.
Post-transcriptional
True or False: Cancer is always inherited
What is False
Who Wrote a 44-volume catalog of all known plants and animals.
He provided evidence of evolution and suggested mechanisms, including environmental influences and the struggle for existence.
Count Buffon
What is an noncoding and important for gene expression
What is correct about introns?
How do homologous structures provide evidence for evolution?
It allows biologists to trace organisms to a common ancestor
Klinefleter’s Disease, Jacob’s Syndrome, and Down’s Syndrome are all results of...
Nondisjunction
How do tumor suppressor gene mutations cause cancer?
The tumor suppressor genes prevent uncontrolled cell growth and the cell cycle when normal. Once mutated, they cannot stop the growth of continuously active mutated cells. There are also proteins that TSGs produce, so once mutated. Cancer can be caused due to a decrease in the products.
An ideal structure and function and.
A place in the scala nature (a sequential ladder of life).
binomial system of nomenclature.

Mechanisms like differential RNA processing cause different proteins
What is a fossil?
The remains/traces of a once living organism - bones, teeth, shells, stems. They are found mostly in sedimentary rock. Fossils can be dated based on the age of the rock around them, which is determined by relative/absolute dating.
The control of the levels of active protein

Tracing evolutionary relationships, Bettering our understanding of genetic diseases, Researching proteins.
First to use comparative anatomy to develop a system of classifying animals. Founded the science of paleontology.Proposed catastrophism.
Cuvier
What is an specific DNA sequences that move within and between chromosomes
What are transposons?
What is absolute dating?
Age is determined through the analysis of the chemical and physical properties of rocks/fossils. Most common type - Carbon dating. But the technique is used with other elements, and in this way, scientists can determine the age of Earth - 4.6 billion years.
What is sickle cell anemia
The autosomal recessive disease causes red blood cells to contort into a sickle shape.
What’s an example of an inherited cancer? Explain why it’s inherited.
Breast cancer, colon cancer, colorectal cancer, and lung cancer.
Earth is subject to slow but continuous cycles of erosion and uplift.
He proposed uniformitarianism
Charles Lyell
What is the difference between specialization and differentiation?
Cell specialization, also known as cell differentiation, is the process through which "generic" or "common" cells transform into specialized cells with defined tasks. Generic embryonic cells differentiate into specialized cells through cell differentiation.
Where did Charles Darwin conduct his research?
Galapagos islands
The control of the levels of protein synthesized from its mRNA. This regulation is vastly important to the cellular response to stressors, growth cues, and differentiation.
