Mutations Structures Molecular
FINAL
Terms 100
The physical, observable
expression of a gene.
Phenotype
Terms 200
A fertilized egg.
OR… gamete + gamete =
Zygote
Terms 300
A segment of DNA that determines
your traits. We have about 30,000 of
these.
Gene
Terms 400
A form of intermediate inheritance in which one
allele for a specific trait is not completely
dominant over the other allele. This results in a
combined phenotype.
Incomplete Dominance
Terms 500
The enzyme that “unzips” DNA to prepare it
for replication or transcription.
Helicase
Central Dogma 100
The DNA template helps in the
creation of a ______.
Complimentary Strand of DNA or
mRNA
Central Dogma 200
The product of transcription.
mRNA
Central Dogma 300
The process that creates amino
acids.
Translation
Central Dogma 400
The start codon
AUG (codes for Methionine)
Central Dogma 500
A mRNA sequence that codes
for an amino acid
codon
Mutations 100
A type of mutation that causes
a frameshift due to an
additional base
Insertion
Mutations 200
Instead of a guanine being paired with a
cytosine, a thymine is put in its place.
What kind of mutation is this?
Substitution
Mutations 300
Mutations in this strand can cause
different phenotypes to be
expressed
DNA or RNA
Mutations 400
Substitution mutations that end up
coding for the same amino acid as
intended by the DNA before the
mutation are called this.
Silent Mutations
Mutations 500
A mutation that may cause an amino
acid sequence to be prematurely cut
short was because the mutation
caused the sequence to code for this.
Stop Codon
Structures 100
What is the main job of spindle fibers
in the cell?
Pull chromosomes apart
(homologous pairs or sister
chromatids)
Structures 200
What do these
products of meiosis
represent?
4 haploid gametes
DAILY DOUBLE –
Structures
The location in the cell in which
translation occurs.
Cytoplasm (specifically Ribosomes)
Structures 400
Crossing Over
Structures 500
The name of the enzyme that
produces an mRNA transcript.
RNA Polymerase
Random 100
3’ATCGTAC5’
is transcribed into:
5’ UAGCAUG 3’
Random 200
5’ATCGTAC3’
is complimentary to:
3’ TAGCATG 5’
Random 300
Draw an adenine nucleotide.
Label all parts.
ADENINE
Random 400
Having an extra chromosomes on
chromosome 18 in a karyotype.
Trisomy-18 (or Edwards Syndrome)
Random 500
The non-enzyme that is responsible for
translation (i.e., putting together an
amino acid sequence based off the
mRNA strand). Extra 100 pts for the full
name (not abbreviation)
tRNA or “transfer RNA”
FINAL JEOPARDY!
Mrs. Mason’s favorite nucleotide
and amino acid!
Guanine and Arginine
