| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Interphase | The time interval between cellular reproduction |
| Karyotype | the figure produced when the chromosomes of a species during metaphase are arranged according to their homologous pairs |
| Diploid cell | a cell with chromosomes that come in homologous pairs |
| Gametes | Haploid cells (n) produced by diploid cells (2n) for the purpose of sexual reproduction |
| Virus | a non-cellular infectious agent that has two characteristics (1) it has genetic material (RNA or DNA) inside a protective protein coat. (2) it cannot reproduce on its own. |
| What factors besides genetics play a role in determining the characteristics of a person? | Environmental factors and Spiritual factors |
| A cell's DNA consists of 12 pairs of homologous chromosomes. what is its diploid number? what is its haploid number? | diploid number is 24. haploid number is 12. |
| Three cells that each has a diploid number of 32 go through mitosis. How many cells result and how many total chromosomes are in each cell? | 6 cells result. 32 chromosomes total. |
| Three cells that each has a diploid number of 32 go through meiosis. how many cells result and how many total chromosomes are in each cell? | 12 cells result. 16 total chromosomes each. |
| Which resembles mitosis most: meiosis I or meiosis II? | Meiosis II |
| A haploid cell with duplicated chromosomes turns into two haploid cells with no duplicated chromosomes. did the cell go through mitosis, meiosis I, or meiosis II? | meiosis II |
| A diploid cell with duplicated chromosomes turns into two diploid cells with no duplicated chromosomes. did the cell go through mitosis, meiosis I, or meiosis II? | mitosis |
| A single diploid cell goes through meiosis. only one useful gamete is produced. did this meiosis take place in a male or female? | female |
| what does a vaccine do to make a person immune to a virus? | it stimulates the body to produce antibodies against the virus. |
| what two different kinds of genetic material are found in viruses? | DNA and RNA |
| A strand of tRNA has the following nucleotide sequence; adenine, uracil, guanine. What codon in mRNA attracts this strand of tRNA? | uracil, adenine, cytosine |
| Part of an mRNA strand has the following nucleotide sequence; uracil, guanine, cytosine, cytosine, guanine, adenine, uracil, adenine, adenine. For how many amino acids does this part of the strand code? | three |
| what DNA sequence produced the mRNA sequence given in problem #14? |
