Chapter 8 and 9 and 14 and15 study guide Flashcards
Why are chromatids?
Duplicate Halves of chromosomes
What do DNA need to do To fit inside of the cell?
Becomes More Calmpact By wrapping around protein
When is it centromere?
a protein disk that attaches two chromatids to each other in a chromosome
What is the difference between chromatids of eukaryotes and prokaryotes?
Eukaryotes have more than one chromosome while prokaryotes have one chromosome
How many chromosomes in your body cells.?
46 in body cells
When is the difference between a diploid and I haploid cell?
Diploid: 46 chromosomes body cells 1n
Haploid: 23 chromosomes, sex cells sperm egg 1n
What is mitosis?
A process in which as cells nucleus divides
Well happens going mitosis?
Chromosomes exchange segments of DNA
How many chromosomes you receive from your mother and father?
22 Autosomes and a sex chromosome from each parent
Chapter 9
Chevy
Differences between homozygotes and heterozygotes Alleles
Homozygotes is too similar alleles and heterozygote has two different alleles
How many cells in chromosomes does meiosis Produce?
Producers 4 cells, each with 23 chromosomes.
Why do the letters Tt represent
Each Letter represents one Allele
In a punnet square what do letters inside the box represent
The offspring of a cross
Who is Gregor Mendel
Father of genetics with pea plants
What are the differences between dominant and recessive
Dominick mask the recessive and recessive is masked by dominate
What is phenotype what is a genotype
P-physical appearance based on the genotype
G- the genetics of an organism
In Mendel’s. Experiment the results of the F in one generation
The result showed the dominate trait
What is the difference between a monohybrid and dihybrid cross
Mono involves only one trait
Di hybrid involves crosses of two traits

Chapter 10
What is the primary function of DNA
Storing and transmitting genetic information
What is DNA Maid of
Deoxyribose sugar
Phosphate
Nitrogen containing base
What are the bases in DNA and RNA
DNA a-t pair up g-c pair up
RNA a-u pair up g-c pair up
What is the difference between DNA and RNA
DNA is double-stranded deoxyribose sugar and thymine base
RNA is Single-stranded it has a ribose sugar and a uracil base
