the chromosomal basis of DNA

QuestionAnswer
Thomas Hunt Morgan genes are found on chromosomes
Drosophila are used because there are lots of offspring, they have four pairs of chromosomes
genetic linkage genes on the same chromosome can be linked if they are close together
X linked genes do not independently assort but instead form recombinants
during prophase 1 of meiosis chiasmata form which lead to recombinants
linkage is said to be incomplete if new combinations occur in the offspring
to make a genetic map of a chromosome recombinant frequencies are used
a 1% recombination is called a centimorgan
the smaller the recombination percentage the closer the genes
the retina contains cone cells which absorb coloured light
the gene for cones which absorb blue light are on autosmomes
the gene for cones which absorb red light(protan) and green light(deutan) is on the x chromosome
there are two types of haemophilia Haemophilia A and B
in haemophilia A factor 8 is missing
in haemophilia B Factor 10 is missing...Christmas disease
egg cells are also called homogametes

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
