Question | Answer |
---|---|
What is the equation for photosynthesis? | 6CO2+6H2O→C6H12O6+6O2 (Carbon dioxide + Water => Glucose + Oxygen) |
What is the equation for cellular respiration? | C6H12O6+6O2→6CO2+6H2O+ATP (Glucose + Oxygen => Carbon dioxide + Water + 20 ATP) |
What is the relationship between the products of photosynthesis and the reactants of cellular respiration? | They are the same/Share the same molecules (Glucose and oxygen) |
What organisms move carbon from the environment to the biosphere? | Plants |
What are the products of photosynthesis? | Oxygen and glucose |
What are the products of cellular respiration? | Water and carbon dioxide |
What are the bases for DNA? | Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine, Guanine |
What are the bases for RNA? | Adenine, Uracil, Cytosine, Guanine |
What is the sequence for DNA? | T-A | A-U | G-C | C-G |
What is the RNA transcription of "TTTAG"? | AAAUC |
What is the 3 base sequence of mRNA that codes for amino acids called? | Codons |
What is the order of protein synthesis? | Transcription - translation - initiation - elongation - termination |
What is the structure of DNA? | Double Helix |
How are ribosomes used in protein synthesis? | responsible for synthesizing proteins by translating the genetic code transcribed in mRNA into an amino acid sequence |
What is the function of tRNA? | helps transfer amino acids to the corresponding mRNA codons (always complementary to the mRNA strand) |
What does a translocation mutation do? | One part of one chromosome breaks off and attaches to another nonhomologous chromosome |
What does a duplication mutation do? | A segment of the chromosome repeats itself during replication |
Why is crossing over and independent assortment important for genetic variation? | New alleles are formed with different genotypes and phenotypes |
What types of bonds are broken for DNA replication to occur? | Hydrogen bonds |
What does Meiosis produce? | 4 gametes which contain 23 chromosomes |
What happens in Prophase 1? | crossing over occurs among the homologous chromosomes (increases the number of possible gene combinations) |
What happens in Metaphase 1? | Homologous pairs line up at the cell’s equator |
What happens in Anaphase 1? | Homologous chromosome pairs separate. |
What happens in Telophase/Cytokinesis 1? | Nuclear membrane partially reforms; cell divides into two cells (now haploid 1N) |
What happens in Prophase 2? | The nuclear envelope reforms. |
What happens in Metaphase 2? | Sister chromatids line Up at the cell’s equator |
What happens in Anaphase 2? | Sister chromatids are separated; Move to opposite poles of the cell |
What happens in Telophase/Cytokinesis 2? | the two cells both divide, creating 4 haploid cells |
How many chromosomes do haploid cells have? | n | Half the amount of chromosomes of a diploid cell. |
How many chromosomes do diploid have? | 2n | Full set of chromosomes. |
Meiosis | Creates gametes Haploid PMAT twice |
Mitosis | Somatic cells Diploid PMAT once |
What is the purpose of taxonomy? | to study how organisms are related, which would allow for better understanding of said organism for research |
What is the two-word system for naming organisms called? | Binomial Nomenclature |
What three kingdoms contain heterotrophs/autotrophs? | Eubacteria, Archaebacteria, and Protista |
What two kingdoms only have heterotrophs? | Fungi and Animalia |
What kingdom contains only autotrophs? | Plantae |
