Question
Answer
show A genetic variation of a trait. Parts of a chromosome made of DNA.  
🗑
show Any of the 22 numbered chromosomes in a human. They don't include the sex chromosomes.  
🗑
Centromere   show
🗑
Chromatid   show
🗑
Chromosome   show
🗑
show A mutation process where a nucleotide base is lost or destroyed. This can cause a variety of genetic issues.  
🗑
DNA   show
🗑
show Short stretches of DNA that target unique sequences and help identify a unique part of genome.  
🗑
show Expressed by a capitol letter. These cause a phenotype and are one half of a genotype. These mask other possible phenotypes.  
🗑
Eukaryotic   show
🗑
Familial Hypercholesterolemia   show
🗑
show A type of change in genes that explains the insertion or deletion of nucleotide bases that are not in multiples of 3.  
🗑
show The basic unit for heredity. Made of DNA and found in chromosomes.  
🗑
Genome   show
🗑
Genotype   show
🗑
show A technique that can be used to organize and separate DNA fragments according to their size.  
🗑
Heterozygous   show
🗑
Homologous Chromosomes   show
🗑
Homozygous   show
🗑
show A type of change in genes that involves the adding of one or more nucleotide bases into a segment of DNA.  
🗑
Karyotype   show
🗑
show A molecule made of DNA that contains information to build proteins.  
🗑
Mitosis   show
🗑
show The process of a genome being altered. The nucleic acid is changed into something different.  
🗑
Nondisjunction   show
🗑
Nucleotides   show
🗑
Pedigree   show
🗑
show The physical effect a Genotype has on an organism.  
🗑
Point Mutation   show
🗑
Polymerase Chain Reaction   show
🗑
Proteins   show
🗑
Protein Synthesis   show
🗑
show A system to decide the probability of an organism's genotype, based on it's parents.  
🗑
show These larger components made of DNA need two of itself to express the related Phenotype.  
🗑
Restriction Enzyme   show
🗑
Ribonucleic Acid (RNA)   show
🗑
show The 23rd pair of chromosomes in a human. The two types (X and Y) determine the human's sex.  
🗑
show A type of change in genes where the DNA is altered, substituted, or deleted, but as no affect on the amino acid sequence.  
🗑
Benign   show
🗑
show The materials that make up DNA. A, T, C, and G are the letters that describe these things.  
🗑
show A period of time in which a mother's ability to absorb glucose is inhibited during pregnancy. It can develop into type 2 diabetes after.  
🗑
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)   show
🗑
Malignant   show
🗑
show Cell division in sexual reproduction that involves a decrease of chromosomes in the newly made cells.  
🗑
show A prediction of a condition's outlook in the future based on certain activities and actions.  
🗑
Ultrasound Imaging   show
🗑
