| A | B |
|---|
| Meiosis | happens in the gametes; sperm or egg cell; and produces haploid cell |
| If somatic cell has 46 chromosomes, its sperm or egg has | 23 chromosomes |
| Exchange of genetic material occurs during | crossing over |
| It takes how many codes to make 1 amino acids? | 3 |
| If 3 codes = 1 amino acid, how many codes are used for 3 amino acids? | 9 |
| mRNA | carries the blueprint of genetic code |
| What happens during anaphase I? | homologous chromosomes are separating and pulled away from the center. |
| What happens during anaphase II? | sister chromatids are separating and pulled away from the center |
| If mitosis is diploid, meiosis is | haploid |
| Why do we use probability question in genetics? | To predict the traits of offspring. |
| Is Uracil a base for DNA or RNA? | RNA |
| Are Thymine, Guanine, Cytosine, and Adenine present in DNA or RNA? | DNA |
| Why is DNA semi-conservative? | one strand is new while the other is old. |
| Is deoxyribose a sugar of DNA or RNA? | DNA |
| Is ribose a sugar of DNA or RNA? | RNA |
| What is independent assortment? | It is a random combinations of chromosomes in meiosis. |
| In what stage of meiosis independent assortment occurs? | Metaphase I |
| Heterozygous alleles are combinations of | One uppercase and one lowercase i.e. Aa, Bb, Cc, Dd |
| According to Mendel's experiment, dominant allele | tends to hide or mask the recessive allele |
| If two heterozygous parents are crossed, what is the chance that the offspring will show both the dominant and recessive gene? | 50/50 chance |
