Mary has a rare abnormality of the eyelids called ptosis, which makes it impossible for her to pen her eyes competely. Ptosis depends on a single dominant gene (P). Mary's father has ptosis, but her mother is normal. Mary's father's mother is also normal. What is the probable genotype of Mary's father?

Chromosomes that have genes at the same place are called

Most of the APT produced by cellular respiration is because of this action

What is an allele?

Which of the following statements is NOT true?

If the molecule AACTTTCGAGA was transcribed, what would the new sequence look like?

Mary has a rare abnormality of the eyelids called ptosis, which makes it impossible for her to pen her eyes competely. Ptosis depends on a single dominant gene (P). Mary's father has ptosis, but her mother is normal. Mary's father's mother is also normal. What is the probability that she will have a child with ptosis if she marries a man with normal eyelids?

Mendel developed four hypotheses from his monohybrid cross of flowers

If one strand of DNA is GGTCCCTAGAG, the complementary strand would be?

Based on the information above, if two blue parents had some red and some blue kids, what is the probability that they will have a child that can ONLY produce the blue hair allele?

The "start" transcribing sequence on a DNA molecule is called the

Sister chromatids separate during

In lab, you discovered that the allele frequency of a population can change because of:

We define a tumor as malignant if

Blood type is considered to be a

What paring makes the most sense when it comes to translation?

During this phase, chromosomes are in the process of moving away from each other

In the genetics testing lab, why did the tumor DNA have fewer bands (two bands) than the peripheral blood DNA (three bands)?

Similar to water, nucleotides pairs are held together by

A person with type A blood has a child with a person with type O blood. What are the possible outcomes of this union?

What must happen to an mRNA molecule before it can leave the nucleus?

Some genetic mutations are "silent" because

Which type of a mutation would have the greatest negative effect?

The specific sequence of DNA that codes for protein is called a(n)

These proteins act as spools around which the chromosome is wound

Genes of a eukaryotic cell are located on

In lab, when you placed a slice of potato in a solution and the potato gained weight, this meant that the solution was

After many generations on Mars, we observe a change. We now see that sometimes blue hair and red hair parents have some blue and some red hair kids. What is most likely the explanation for this change?

What is the purpose of meiosis?

What leads to genetic recombination?

Phages have two reproductive cycles. Which one causes quick cell death?

Mary has a rare abnormality of the eyelids called ptosis, which makes it impossible for her to pen her eyes competely. Ptosis depends on a single dominant gene (P). Mary's father has ptosis, but her mother is normal. Mary's father's mother is also normal. What is the probable genotype of Mary who was ptosis?

After the chromatids are pulled apart in Meiosis II you end up with four ____ cells

If the coding region of a gene is 1500 nucleotides long, then how long is the protein for which it codes?

This is the part of the cell cycle in which the cell spends most of its life; it spends this time duplicating DNA and organelles to prepare for division

A plant cell is a prokaryote or a eukaryote?

An alien species is found to live on the planet Mars. We observe that the people have two types of hair. Many of the aliens have hair that is four foot long and blue. Whereas others have hair that is half inch short and bright red. We set up an observation deck and observe their patterns of inheritance. When blue and red have kids, ALL of their kids have blue hair, so we conclude that...

Where does transcription occur?

Retroviruses like HIV work a little differently in that they inject _____ into the host cell.

What is cytokinesis?

In lab, when you tested the evidence in a test tube and it turned brown, what did this mean?

Red-green color blindness is more common in males. Why?

What is causing electrons to move through the hydrogen pumps of the electron transport chain?

If an organism's body cells had 68 chromosomes, how many chromosomes would the sperm have?

Every person with brown eyes has the same _____, but they could have different ______.

What causes Down's Syndrome?

If DNA is like a twisted ladder, what are the long sides of the ladder made of?

All of the following occur with the Citric Acid Cycle EXCEPT?

In the video in class, we learned that ALL viruses are capable of attacking humans. Every virus on the planet has the correct protein structure to dock with human cells.
