Question
Answer
In humans the trait of having freckles (F) is dominant to not having freckles (f). Which genotype and phenotype are correctly paired?   Ff—freckles  
🗑
The allele for tasting PTC (T) is dominant to the allele for nontasting PTC (t). Which of these sets of parents can produce offspring who cannot taste PTC?   a heterozygous male who can taste PTC and a heterozygous female who can taste PTC  
🗑
What results in the separation of chromosomes randomly and independently during the production of sperm and egg cells (meiosis)?   independent assortment  
🗑
The allele for attached earlobes (e) is recessive to the allele for unattached earlobes (E). A woman with the genotype (Ee) and a man with the genotype (ee) have a child. What is the probability that the child is heterozygous for this trait?   50%  
🗑
During prophase I, sections of homologous chromosomes switch places. What is this process called?   crossing over  
🗑
Sex cells are produced during   meiosis  
🗑
A sperm cell of a fruit fly has 4 chromosomes. How many chromosomes are in the cells of a fruit fly’s leg?   8  
🗑
How many chromosomes are in a normal human skin cell?   46  
🗑
Which of these represents the number of chromosomes in cells before and after the process of meiosis?   2n -> n  
🗑
One parent is homozygous dominant for brown hair (BB). The other parent is heterozygous for brown hair (Bb). What is the probability that the offspring will have brown hair?   100%  
🗑
In guinea pigs, the allele for black fur (B) is dominant. A homozygous guinea pig (BB) is crossed with a heterozygous guinea pig (Bb). What are the phenotypes of the parents?   Both parents have black fur.  
🗑
Which processes of cell division creates genetic diversity?   meiosis  
🗑
What process produces male and female reproductive cells in plants?   meiosis  
🗑
WHAT IS TRAIT?   A VARIATION OF A PATICULAR CHARACTER  
🗑
PARTICULATE HYPOTHESIS SAY THAT :   PARENTS PASS ON TO THEIR OFFSPRING SEPARATE AND DISTINCT FACTORS(GENES) THAT ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR INHERITED TRAITS  
🗑
BIOLOGISTS PROPOSED THE BLENDING HYPOTHESIS WHICH SAY :   OFFSPRING WOULD BE A BLEND OF PARENTS TRAITS  
🗑
BOTH BLENDING AND PARTICULATE HYPOTHESIS TRY TO EXPLAIN THE INHERITANCE OF TRAITS   TRUE  
🗑
PARTICULATE HYPOTHESIS STATES THAT PARENTS PASS ON DISTINCT FACTORS THAT RETAIN THEIR IDENTITIES IN OFFSPRING   TRUTH  
🗑
BLENDING HYPOTHESIS STATES THAT   PARENTS' HEREDITARY MATERIAL BLENDS IN THE OFFSPRING  
🗑
WHAT IS CALL WHEN THE SPERM FROM ONE INDIVIDUAL FERTILIZE THE EGGS OF ANOTHER INDIVIDUAL?   CROSS FERTILIZATION  
🗑
WHAT IS CALL Fusion of male and female sex cells (gametes) produced by the same individual ?   SELF FERTILIZATION  
🗑
WHAT IS THE NAME FOR OFFSPRING OF 2 DIFFERENT TRUE BREEDING VARIETIES LIKE - PARENTAL PLANTS = P GENERATION - HYBRID OFFSPRING = F1 GENERATION ?   HYBRIDS  
🗑
WHAT IS A NAME FOR PARING IN WHICH THE PARENT PLANT DIFFER IN ONLY ONE TRAIT?   MONOHYBRID CROSS  
🗑
ALLELES ARE   ALTERNATIVE FORMS OF GENES  
🗑
HOMOZYGOUS ARE :   THE 2 ALLELES FOR A GENE ARE THE SAME DD OR dd  
🗑


   

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.
