Genetic Variation | Meiosis | Gregor Mendel | Asexual vs Sexual Reproduction | Punnett Squares |
---|---|---|---|---|
What is a substitution mutation
This mutation is often known as a "silent" mutation due to the rarity of it being seen
|
What is haploid
A male elephant is in must, a surge of hormones during mating season, which also means he is creating more sex cells that we consider _______________.
|
What is Mendel's Law of Dominance
Two brown haired parents gave birth to a red headed baby, which of Mendel's laws explains why the recessive alleles were masked?
|
What is asexual reproduction
Genetically identical offspring
|
What is nine
A dihybrid cross will always generate how many homozygous dominant offspring?
|
What is crossing over
Allen Iverson broke people's ankles with this move, biologist know this as a means increasing genetic variation
|
What is four
Oh shit, Mr. Scutt is expecting quadruplets with his super hot wife Sofia Vergara, looks like all ____ of his daughter cells fertilized Sofia's eggs
|
What is they reproduce sexually
Why did Gregor Mendel decide to study pea plants in his experiments?
|
What is sexual reproduction
Offspring that are genetically different from their parents
|
What is homozygous recessive
Napolean was an asshole with "little man" complex, Mendel would probably say he had this genotype for height
|
What is mutagens
Radiation, chemicals, and other of the environmental factors that increase genetic variation. Heck it's what made the Ninja Turtles
|
What is non-disjunction
Just like toxic couples, chromosomes are having trouble separating from each other during anaphase
|
What is Law of Independent Assortment
Mr. Scutt has a recessive trait for his hair color, but a dominant trait for his thumb, what law explains this?
|
What is asexual reproduction
Unicellular organisms and some protists reproduce this way
|
What is one
In a dihybrid cross, how many of the 16 offspring would be homozygous recessive
|
What is a deletion mutation
Original DNA: TACGTACCCTTTCAT
Mutated DNA: TAGTACCCTTTCAT |
What is a trisomy
When a chromosome with an extra copy of that chromosome fertilizes and egg with a normal number of that chromosome, it creates this
|
What is genotypes and phenotypes
Mendel determined that there are traits that can be determined by alleles and that makes them express certain characteristics, what are those terms
|
What is sexual reproduction increases genetic variation
Mr. Scutt is highly allergic to bee stings, but his offspring are immune. Why did this occur
|
What is 50%
Two erminette chickens cross together, what is the percent chance they have erminette babies?
|
What is amino acid sequence
These two mutations often cause many harmful mutations to occur, that is because the affect this sequence
|
What is autosomes
This key term, which sounds much like a living robot, refers to the chromosomes that in meiosis that don't determine your gender
|
What is Law of Segregation
Meiosis is where Mendel's final law takes place when sex cells separate your genotypes into individual alleles
|
What is asexual reproduction
Binary Fission and Budding
|
What is pink offspring
The snap dragon flower displays incomplete dominance, so when a red and white snapdragon cross this will give rise to
