Photosynthesis The Cell Cycle Meiosis & Sexual Life Cycles Mendel & The Gene Chromosomal Basis of Inheritance
100
Red and Blue
These two colors of light are the most efficient in producing energy from photosynthesis
100
Chromatin
The formation of this process allows the genetic material to be organized within the cell.
100
Gametes
These are reproductive cells transmitting genes from generation to generation
100
Allele
This refers to the alternative versions of genes
100
Loci
This is referred to as the specific location of a gene on a chromosome.
200
Light Reactions and The Calvin Cycle
These two processes take place during photosynthesis
200
Interphase
This phase constitutes 90% of the cell cycle
200
Karyotype
This displays condensed chromosomes arranged in pairs, it is useful for screening for defective or abnormal numbers
200
Homozygous
This term refers to a pair of identical alleles
200
Wild type
This term is used to describe the phenotype for a character most commonly occurring in natural population
300
O2, ATP, NADPH
These three products come out of the light reaction process of photosynthesis
300
Cleavage Furrow
During Cytokinesis, this is a contractile ring of actin microfilaments to pinch off the new cells.
300
Crossing Over
This mechanism of variation occurs during Prophase I and produces recombinant chromosomes
300
The Law of Segregation
This law refers to 2 alleles for a heritable character separating from each other during gamete production thus ending up in different gametes
300
50 percent
When the percentage of parental phenotypes is above this percent, the genes are considered linked
400
G3P
This product of the Calvin Cycle is used as a starting point for the synthesis of other carbohydrates.
400
Maturation-Promoting Factor
This Cdk-cyclin complex that stimulates the cell cycle to go from G2 into the M phase is known as?
400
Sexual Reproduction
This type of reproduction involves a single individual passing on all genes to offspring with fusion of gametes. This results in a clone
400
Pedigree
This chart is a collection of genetic info about a family’s history for a trait that is put into a family tree describing traits across generations
400
Hemizygous
This term refers to having only 1 copy of an allele for expression
500
Carotenoids
This pigment can be shades of yellow & orange to help broaden range of colors driving photosynthesis
Also Photoprotect – absorb & dissipate excessive light energy
500
Kinetochores
During Metaphase, microtubules attach to these on chromosomes.
500
Chiasmata
This is the site of crossing over between non sister chromatids
500
Incomplete dominance
This degree of dominance is when alleles aren’t completely dominant, producing a phenotype between 2 parents
500
Muscular Dystrophy
This disease is known for the progressive weakening of the musculature caused by the absence of a key muscle protein. (This is a well known X-linked disorder)
