Question
Answer
chromosome   show
🗑
show A segment of DNA in which the sequence of nucleotides codes for a specific protein (or part of a protein), which in turn contributes to a specific characteristic.  
🗑
diploid   show
🗑
show The division of one cell into two cells; includes mitosis and cytokinesis.  
🗑
show The phase of a cell's life cycle before cell division; genes are copied during this period.  
🗑
show The duplication and separation of a cell's chromosomes; usually followed by cytokinesis.  
🗑
prophase   show
🗑
show The second phase of mitosis; the chromosomes align by their centromeres across the middle of the spindle.  
🗑
show The third phase of mitosis; during this phase the daughter chromosomes move to opposite ends of the spindle.  
🗑
show The last phase of mitosis; when sister chromatids reach the ends of the spindle and the nucleus re-forms.  
🗑
show The division of the cytoplasm during the process of cell division.  
🗑
asexual reproduction   show
🗑
show The joining of haploid gametes to form a diploid zygote, which develops into a new individual.  
🗑
meiosis   show
🗑
show A haploid cell that contains only one of each type of chromosome found in an organism; an egg or sperm  
🗑
haploid   show
🗑
fertilization   show
🗑
show A diploid cell formed by the union of two gametes  
🗑
show The nucleic acid that carries genetic information; usually found in the nucleus.  
🗑
RNA (ribonucleic acid)   show
🗑
show The RNA molecule that transports a coded message from the nucleus to the cytoplasm.  
🗑
transcription   show
🗑
show The manufacturing of protein inside a cell.  
🗑
tRNA (transfer RNA)   show
🗑
codon   show
🗑
nucleotide   show
🗑
show The process of forming two DNA molecules from one original DNA molecule.  
🗑


   

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.
