20
Q

What step of mitosis are two new cells formed?

A

Cytokinesis

21
Q

Are meiosis 2 and mitosis the same?

A

Yes

22
Q

What is asexual reproduction?

A

Remaking of something with only one parent. Like budding, fission, and regeneration.

23
Q

What is sexual reproduction?

A

When two parents form a new organism

24
Q

What does the offspring of asexual reproduction look like?

A

Normally the same as the original parent.

25
Q

What does the offspring of sexual reproduction look like?

A

Similar to the parents but not the same.

26
Q

How many steps are in the cell cycle?

A

3

27
Q

What type of sugar is in DNA

A

Deoxyribose

28
Q

What type of sugar is in RNA?

A

Ribose

29
Q

How many strands of DNA are there?

A

2

30
Q

How many strands of RNA are there?

A

1

31
Q

What types of bases are in DNA?

A

Thymine(T), guanine(g), cytosine(c), and adenine(a).

32
Q

What bases are in RNA?

A

Uracil (U), guanine (g), adenine(a), cytosine(c).

33
Q

In DNA what do the bases pair with?

A

Cytosine goes with guanine
Adenine goes with thymine

34
Q

In RNA what do the bases pair with?

A

Adenine pairs with Uracil
Guanine pairs with cytosine

35
Q

How does DNA reproduce?

A

An enzyme splits the ladder down the middle and the sides fall away from each other then the bases repair the other sides.

36
Q

What is protein synthesis?

A

The forming of a protein molecule with RNA, the transfer RNA is used for amino acids, Messenger RNA is used to send the coded message of which order the bases need to be in, and ribosomal RNA.
