Protein Synthesis

Categories

The names of the two parts to protein

synthesis

Protein Synthesis 100 Points

Categories

Protein Synthesis 100 Points

What are: transcription and

translation?

Categories

Protein Synthesis 200 Points

The end product of gene expression.

Categories

What is an amino acid chain/protein?

Protein Synthesis 200 Points

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

A mutation that results in a premature stop signal.

Protein Synthesis 400 Points

Categories

Protein Synthesis 400 Points

What is a nonsense mutation?

Categories

The component that controls some

aspects of gene expression. Hint: this

can change with time and is often

influenced by environment- think

“Ghost in Your Genes.”

What is epigenetics?

Categories

The physical characteristics of an

organism.

Basic Genetics 100 Points

Categories

Basic Genetics 100 Points

What is the phenotype?

Categories

Basic Genetics 200 Points

Having a pair of identical alleles for a

characterisitc.

Categories

What is homozygous?

Basic Genetics 200 Points

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

An F1 rabbit that is homozygous for

whiteness is crossed with a

heterozygous black rabbit. The

probability of having a white bunny.

Categories

How polygenic traits and pleiotropy

are opposites.

Basic Genetics 500 Points

Categories

•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)

Basic Genetics 500 Points

Categories

Stem cells recovered from the result of

in vitro fertilization.

Genetic Engineering 100 Points

Categories

Genetic Engineering 100 Points

What are embryonic stem cells?

Categories

Genetic Engineering 200 Points

An organism that contains genes from

another organism.

Categories

What is a transgenic organism?

Genetic Engineering 200 Points

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

Four things that are needed to make

recombinant DNA.

Genetic Engineering 400 Points

Categories

What are a restriction

enzyme, a bacterium

plasmid, and donor DNA,

and ligase?

Genetic Engineering 400 Points

Categories

How a PCR is made.

Genetic Engineering 500 Points

Categories

•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

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
