Frage Antworten
Genetics How genetic information is passed on from one gen to the next
Somatic Cells plant or animal cell that forms the body of the organisms
Interphase cell carries out normal function, makes copies of genetic material
Mitosis nucleus and genetic material divide
Cytokinesis Involves the division of the cell cytoplasm and creation of a new cell
G1 phase synthesizing many new molecules in preparation for the next phase
S phase cellular DNA is replicated
G2 phase cell synthesizes more molecules
Chromosome structure in the nucleus which contains DNA
Sister Chromatids Genetically identical and held together by centromere
Spindle Fibre Made of microtubules
Centrosome Helps form Spindle Fibres
Genome Complete DNA sequence of an organism
Sex Chromosomes X or Y that determines sex of an organism
Autosome not involved in determining sex
Homologous Chromosome contains the same sequence of genes as another chromosome
Gene Section of DNA
Allele Different form of the same gene
Karyotype photograph of paired homologous chromosomes
Asexual Reproduction Requires only one parent, produces identical offspring
Sexual Reproduction Requires two parents, distinct offspring
Gamete male or female reproductive cell
Zygote cell formed by the fusion of two gametes
Fertilization Joining of male and female haploid gametes
Haploid Half the number of chromosomes
Diploid Contains pairs of Homologous Chromosomes
Meiosis cellular process that produces half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell
Synapsis Aligning of homologous chromosome during prophase1 in meiosis 1
Spermatogenesis produce male gametes
Oogenesis produce female gametes
Crossing Over exchange of chromosomal segments
Deletion piece of a chromosome is deleted
Duplication section that appears two or more times
Inversion section of a chromosome is inverted
Translocation Segment of one chromosome become attached to a different chromosome
Non- Disjunction failure of separation
Monosomy loss of a chromosome
Trisomy gain of a chromosome
P generation First organisms crossed
F1 generation offspring of P generation
F2 generation offspring of F1 gen
Dominant appears when individual has allele
Recessive appears when individual has 2 allele
Genotype Organisms genetic makeup
Phenotype Physiological traits
Homozygous same allele
Heterozygous two different allele
Punnett Square illustrate all possible genotypes and phenotypes of a offspring
Monohybrid differs by 1 trait
Dihybrid cross of two traits
Law of Independent Assortment two alleles for one gene segregate or assort independently of the alleles for other genes
Incomplete Dominance blending of two traits
Codominance both traits are dominant
Heterozygous Advantage benefit for individuals who inherit two different alleles for the same trait
Multiple Alleles Genes with more then 2 alleles
Continuous Variation range of variation in one trait
Polygenic trait trait that is controlled by more the one gene
Linked Genes genes that are on the same chromosome and that tend to be inherited together
Sex Linked Trait trait controled by genes on X or Y
