QuestionAnswer
cell cycle growth, development and division
centromere structure that holds sister chromatids together
cytokinesis division of a cell's cytoplasm and contents
daughter cells two new cells that result from mitosis and cytokinesis
eukaryotic cell with membrane bound structures
interphase cell's period of growth and development
sister chromatids one of the two identical strands of DNA that make up a duplicated chromosomes
cell differentation process by which cells become different types of cells
complex made of two or more parts
fiber long muscle cell
organ group of different tissues working together to perform a particular job
organ system group of organs working together to complete a series of tasks
stem cell unspecialized cell that develops into many different cell types
tissue group of similar type of cells that work together to carry out specific tasks
mitosis division of cell's nucleus and contents
diploid describes a cell that has parts of chromosmes
dna genetic information in a cell
egg female sex cell
fertilization joining of an egg and sperm
haploid describes a cell that has only one chromosome from each pair
homologous chromosomes pairs of chromosomes -one inherited from each parent-that have genes for the same traits arranged in the same order
meiosis process in which one diploid cell divides to make haploid sex cells
sexual reproduction production of offspring from the combination of genetic materials from two cells
sperm male sex cell
zygote new cell formed through fertilization
asexual reproduction production of offspring by one parent without meiosis and fertilization
budding asexual reproduction in which a new organism grows on the body of its parent
cloning lab procedure that produces identical individuals from a cell or cells taken from an organism
culture growing living tissue in a laboratory
fission cell division in prokaryotes that forms two genetically identical cells
potential possibility
regeneration asexual reproduction in which a new organism grows from a piece of its parent
vegetative reproductive asexual reproduction in which offspring grow from a part of a parent plant
dominant genetic factor that blocks another genetic factor
egg haploid sex cell formed in the female reproductive organ
genetics study of how traits are passed from parents to offspring
heredity passing of traits from parents to offspring
hybrid offspring of two plants or animals with different forms of the same trait
recessive trait genetic factor that is blocked by the presence of a dominant factor
sperm haploid sex cell formed in the male reproductive organs
dna organism's genetic material
mutation Change in the nucleotide sequence of a gene
nucleotide molecule made of a nitrogen base, a sugar, and a phosphate group that forms the basic structural unit of DNA
replication process of copying a DNA molecule to make another DNA molecule
rna ribonucleic acid that carries the code for making protons
transcription process of making mRNA from DNA
translation process of making a protein from RNA
allele different form of a gene
codominance occurs when both alleles can be observed in the offspring's phenotype
conclude to reach a logically necessary end by reasoning
gene section on a chromosome that has genetic information for one trait
genotype two alleles that control the phenotype of a trait
heterozygous having two different alleles of a gene
homozygous having the same two alleles of a gene
incomplete dominance occurs when the offspring's phenotype is a blend of the parents phenotype
phenotype how a trait appears or is expressed
polygenic inheritance occurs when multiple genes determine the phenotype of a trait
punnett square model used to predict possible genotypes and phenotypes of offspring

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.
