Categories Protein Synthesis 200 Points The end product of gene expression. Categories Protein Synthesis 200 Points What is an amino acid chain/protein? Categories Protein Synthesis 300 Points The name of the type of RNA that carries amino acids. Categories Protein Synthesis 300 Points What is tRNA? Categories Protein Synthesis 400 Points A mutation that results in a premature stop signal. Categories Protein Synthesis 400 Points What is a nonsense mutation? Categories Protein Synthesis 500 Points The component that controls some aspects of gene expression. Hint: this can change with time and is often influenced by environment- think Categories “Ghost in Your Genes.” Protein Synthesis 500 points What is epigenetics? Categories Basic Genetics 100 Points The physical characteristics of an organism. Categories Basic Genetics 100 Points What is the phenotype? Categories Basic Genetics 200 Points Having a pair of identical alleles for a characterisitc. Categories Basic Genetics 200 Points What is homozygous? Categories Basic Genetics 300 Points A situation in which a gene has more than two alleles (ex. blood type). Categories Basic Genetics 300 Points What is multiple alleles? Categories Basic Genetics 400 Points An F1 rabbit that is homozygous for whiteness is crossed with a heterozygous black rabbit. The probability of having a white bunny. Categories Basic Genetics 400 Points What is 50 %? b B Bb- black Bbbb- white Categories b b black bb- white Basic Genetics 500 Points How polygenic traits and pleiotropy are opposites. Categories Basic Genetics 500 Points •pleiotropy is when you have one gene that affects more than one trait (ex. cystic fibrosis) • polygenic traits are when you have multiple genes coding for one trait (ex. hair or eye color) Categories Genetic Engineering 100 Points Stem cells recovered from the result of in vitro fertilization. Categories Genetic Engineering 100 Points What are embryonic stem cells? Categories Genetic Engineering 200 Points An organism that contains genes from another organism. Categories Genetic Engineering 200 Points What is a transgenic organism? Categories Genetic Engineering 300 Points DNA can be cut into shorter sequences by this. Categories Genetic Engineering 300 Points What is a restriction enzyme? Categories Genetic Engineering 400 Points Four things that are needed to make recombinant DNA. Categories Genetic Engineering 400 Points What are a restriction enzyme, a bacterium plasmid, and donor DNA, and ligase? Categories Genetic Engineering 500 Points How a PCR is made. Categories Genetic Engineering 500 Points •DNA is heated to separate the strands •DNA is cooled so that synthetic primers anneal to target section •DNA is warmed for elongation of strand •DNA polymerase makes copies of the region between the primers Categories Independent Projects 100 Points During this sleep stage, you have the most vivid dreams. Categories Independent Projects 100 Points What is REM? Categories Independent Projects 200 Points The name of the proteins attached to the surface of a pathogen. Categories Independent Projects 200 Points What are antigens? Categories Independent Projects 300 Points The definition of “zoonotic.” Categories Independent Projects 300 Points What is “the ability to spread to other species?” Categories Independent Projects 400 Points The class of organic compound that contains gluten. Categories Independent Projects 400 Points What is protein? Categories Independent Projects 500 Points The small hairs in the nose and lungs that capture dust-carrying bacteria. Categories Independent Projects 500 Points What are cilia? Categories Evolution 100 Points Definition of a species. Categories Evolution 100 Points What is a taxonomic group whose members can interbreed and produce fertile offspring? Categories Evolution 200 Points The guy who thought that organisms acquired traits by using their bodies in new ways and then passing those traits on to their offspring Categories Evolution 200 Points Who is Jean-Baptiste Lamarck? Categories Evolution 300 Points Selection where the extreme phenotypes are eliminated. Categories Evolution 300 Points •What is stabilizing selection? Categories Evolution 400 Points Two types of evidence that Darwin used to support his theory of change over time. Categories Evolution 400 Points •The fossil record •Geographic distribution •Homologous structures •Embyonic development Categories Evolution 500 Points Conditions that are required to maintain genetic equilibrium Categories Evolution 500 Points • random mating •Large population size •No immigration or emigration •No mutations Categories •No natural selection It is time for round two!
