Question | Answer |
processes of mitosis | |
cloning | isolate donor nucleus, get unfertilized eggs, remove the egg's nucleus, insert donor nucleus and then place the egg into womb |
process of meiosis 1 | |
process of meiosis 2 | no synapsis occurs during prophase 2 |
spermatogenesis | |
oogenesis | |
non-disjunction | the failure of homologous chromosomes to seperate |
non-disjunction diseases | down syndrome= trisomy 21 Edwards syndrome= trisomy 18 turners syndrome= monosomy X |
karyotypes | a picture of an individual's chromosomes during metaphase -can tell a doctor what genetic disorders you many have/ carrier of genetic disease, etc. |
Mendel's principle of segregation | principle of segregation: In diploid organisms, chromosome pairs (and their alleles) are separated into individual gametes (eggs or sperm) to transmit genetic information to offspring. |
Mendel's principle of independent assortment | Alleles on different chromosomes are distributed randomly to individual gametes. |
sex-linked traits | dominant sex-linked diseases affect 100% of males but only females is the mom is a carrier/ has the disease and the dad has the disease |
sex-linked diseases | colour blindness, hemophilia |
monohybrid punnet square | |
dihybrid punnett square | |
incomplete dominance | when both alleles show through the phenotype -ex. flowers |
co-dominance | both dominant alleles show through phenotype -ex. cows |
multiple alleles | ex. blood type |
autosomal pedigrees | equally affects males and females |
sex-linked pedigrees | affects one gender more than the other, usually male |
genetic disorders | down syndrome= trisomy 21 Edwards syndrome= trisomy 18 turners syndrome= monosomy X |
DNA structure | |
DNA replication | A+T G+C |
gene therapy | some people get genetic counselling before and after genetic testing to prepare and inform them before seeing their results |
