Human Biology

QuestionAnswer
Name the 2 types of cell division Mitosis & Meiosis
What is a diploid cell? Diploid cells have 2 sets of homologous chromosomes
What are the 3 steps in Interphase? 3 steps of interphase are G1, S1, and G2;
What are the 4 phases of Mitosis?; the 4 phases are Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, & Telophase;
What is Cytokinesis?; the division of the cytoplasm;
What are the phases in Meiosis? Prophase I, Metaphase I, Anaphase I, Telophase I, interkenisis, Prophase II, Metaphase II, Anaphase II, & Telophase II
Chromosomal mistakes; trisomy, monosomy, deletion, duplication;
What is Amniocentesis? a big needle goes in to pregnant ladies belly and grabs a sample of the amniotic fluid
what is a Gene? Segments of DNA code for specific protiens;
genotype means? genes that are present;
Law of Segration? each chromosome is inherited independently of the other (not stuck together)
DNA? double stranded and made up of nucleotides, sugar, phosphate & nitrogenous base
Which Nitrogenous bases make up our DNA? Adenine, Guanine, Thymine, Cytosine
Which nitrogenous bases pair together and why? A-T & C=G they are happy because they equal 3 (size) and connect by matching bonds
What does Multiple Alleles mean & give an example? when 3 or more forms of a given gene exist ex: blood types
Gregor Mendel? 1st to study how single genes are inherited from parent to offspring;
phenotypical ratio? 3:1
What is Mitosis? Mitosis is photocopying the cell ending with two diploid cells;
What is a haploid cell? Haploid cells have 1 set of chromosomes, only found in gametes.
What happens in interphases G1, S1, & G2 G1 is growth differentiation; S1 is synthesis of DNA (replication); G2 is duplication of organelles
what happens in prophase? chromosomes condense
What is Karyotype? when chromosomes are stained and photographed & arranged by size
trisomy means and example 3 chromosomes trisomy 21 causes down syndrom;
What is Chorionic villi sampling? involves in taking a sample of the chrionic villi (where the baby attaches to uterus)
What is a Trait? proteins that gives you an inheritance characteristics
phenotype means? physical expression of the genes;
What is Meiosis? Meiosis is cell division that makes gametes, ending with 4 haploid cells
What happens during Metaphase? chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell
How many chromosomes are in a cell?; How many chromosomes are in a gametes? 46; 23
define monosomy & give an example; 1 chromosome, monosomy x causes turner syndrome;
What is an alleles? different forms of the same gene
Punnet square? a matrix used to find ratios;
Genotypical ratio? 1:2:1
What happens in anaphase? the chromosomes seperate
define deletion & duplication of a chromosome deletion is loss of a piece of chromosome, and duplication is a piece is added to a chromosomes
What is Homozygous Dominant mean? 2 alleles of the dominant gene;
What happens in telophase? chromosomes reach the edge and pull apart the cell
What does heterozygous mean? 1 dominate and 1 recessive gene;
What does Homozygous Recessive mean? 2 alleles of the recessive gene

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.
