Question
Answer
replication beings at   the origin of replication  
🗑
Y shaped region where parental strands of DNA are being unwound   replication fork  
🗑
enzymes that untwist double helix of DNA   helicases  
🗑
bind to unpaired DNA strands, keeping them from repairing   single strand binding proteins  
🗑
relieves stress of winding and keeps DNA straightened out   topoisomerase  
🗑
Role of DNA primase   adds RNA primer to parental strand  
🗑
Role of RNA polymerase   adds nucleotides to preexisting chain 5 to 3  
🗑
leading strand   continuous adding of nucleotides by DNA polymerase  
🗑
lagging strand   nucleotides added in okazaki fragments  
🗑
mismatch repair   enzymes remove incorrectly paired nucleotides  
🗑
nuclease   DNA cutting enzyme that removes incorrectly paired nucleotides  
🗑
DNA ligase   joins together DNA strands  
🗑
telomeres   repetition of one short nucleotide sequence. code for nothing  
🗑
oncogene   genes that encode for proteins that lead to cell growth  
🗑
tumor suppressor   genes which encode for proteins that halts cell growth  
🗑
law of segregation   two alleles for the same heritable trait separate from each other during gamete formation and end up in different gametes.  
🗑
homozygous   has a pair of identical alleles for a trait  
🗑
heterozygous   has a pair of 2 different alleles for a trait  
🗑
monohybrid   heterozygous for a trait used in a cross (Yy)  
🗑
dihybrid   heterozygous for two traits used in a cross (YyRr)  
🗑
law of independent assortment   each pair of alleles segregates independently of the other allele pairs  
🗑
complete dominance   dominant trait masks presence of other trait  
🗑
incomplete dominace   neither gene is completely dominant. offspring have a mix of the two traits  
🗑
codominance   both alleles are present  
🗑


   

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.
