| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Acrocentric | having the centromere situated so that one chromosomal arm is much shorter than the other |
| Metacentric | having the centromere medially situated so that the two chromosomal arms are of roughly equal length |
| Submetacentric | having the centromere situated so that one chromosome arm is somewhat shorter than the other |
| Prophase I | 2 sister chromosomes (homologous chromosomes) pair up (synapsis) & may crossover |
| Metaphase I | homologous chromosomes line up in the middle of cell |
| Anaphase I | Homologous chromosomes separate |
| Telophase I | 2 daughter cells form (sister chromatids are still at |
| Prophase II | the 2nd phase of meiosis |
| Metaphase II | sister chromatids line up in the middle of cell |
| Anaphase II | sister chromatids separate |
| Telophase II | 4 daughter cells form (each with haploid #) |
| Trisomy 21 | Downs syndrome facial deformities, and learning disabilities |
| Klinefelter's Syndrome | extra X sex chromosome sterile, lack of testosterone |
| Trisomy 13 | clef palate |
| Homozygous | both genes the same AA |

| Genotype | what genes are present |
| Incomplete Dominance | form of intermediate inheritance in which one allele for a specific trait is not completely dominant over the other allele combination of the dominant and recessive phenotypes. |

| Bacteria | this is the oldest and most abundant domain. Bacteria have strong cell walls containing peptidoglycan, and are prokaryotic and unicelluar. Some are autotrophic and others are heterotrophic. |
| Archaea | rchaebacteria are prokaryotic, unicellular, and some are autotrophic while others are heterotrophic. their cell walls do not contain peptidoglycan. Also, their ribosomal proteins are more similar to those of eukaryotes than they are to bacteria |
| Eukarya | contains the organisms in the remaining four kingdoms: Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia. These organisms are eukaryotic, and use sexual reproduction as part of their life cycle. |
