🗑
compliments to each base   C-G and T-A  
🗑
What did Watson and Crick receive in 1962?   Nobel Prize in medicine  
🗑
Genetics   genetics is the study of heredity and how traits pass parent to offspring  
🗑
DNA is made of what?   2 chains of Nucleotides  
🗑
Heredity   Passing of traits, parent to offspring  
🗑
Trait   genetically determined variant of a characteristic  
🗑
chains of nucleotides are separated by...   enzymes called helicases  
🗑
DNA polymerase   bind separated chains of DNA  
🗑

🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
