  • What do you call the genotype aa?
    Homozygous recessive
  • What do the letters outside a Punnett square represent?
    Alleles from the parent's sex cells
  • What type of cells are produced as a result of mitosis?
    Body cells
  • In frogs, having a long tongue is dominant to having a short tongue. What is the phenotype for a frog with the genotype Aa?
    Long tongue
  • What do you call the genotype Aa?
    Heterozygous
  • In the diagram below, a circle represents one cell. The number inside the circle represents the number of chromosomes inside the cell. Which diagram represents the correct number of cells and chromosomes after mitosis?
    Option 4
  • Which of the following images shows homologous chromosomes?
    C
  • What is a phenotype?
    Physical feature/Trait/Characteristic
  • What type of cells are produced as a result of MEIOSIS?
    Sex cells
  • What are the alleles for HAIR TYPE?
    Wavy, Curly, Straight
  • If a parent cell contains 40 chromosomes, how many will there be after MITOSIS?
    40 (same)
  • In the diagram below, a circle represents one cell. The number inside the circle represents the number of chromosomes inside the cell. Which diagram represents the correct number of cells and chromosomes after meiosis?
    Option 2
  • What type of cells are produces as a result of MITOSIS?
    Body cells
  • If a parent cell contains 40 chromosomes, how many will there be after MEIOSIS?
    20 (half)
  • What is a genotype?
    A combination of two or more alleles, found on a gene, that produces a trait
  • What type of cells are produced as a result of meiosis?
    Sex cells
  • What is the purpose of MEIOSIS?
    To produce sex cells (that could become a new organism)
  • A particular species of bird can be brown or white. The white color is the recessive trait, while the brown color is the dominant trait. When two brown birds mate, is it possible for them to have a white offspring?
    Yes, they could both be heterozygous and have a child with a recessive (aa) genotype
  • What do you call the genotype AA?
    Homozygous dominant
  • In trees, being tall is dominant to being short. What is the genotype for a short tree?
    aa
  • What is the haploid # for this organism?
    28
  • What is the diploid # for this organism?
    60
  • What do the letters inside a Punnett square represent?
    Possible genotypes in the offspring (children)
  • Which of the following images shows homologous pairs?
    B
  • The diploid # for crocodiles is 30. How many chromosomes would be in Cell Y?
    15
  • The diploid # for koalas is 16. Which cell(s) in the image below would contain 16 chromosomes?
    Z
  • What is the purpose of MITOSIS?
    To make more cells as an organism is growing AND to replace worn out cells
  • After mitosis, how do the daughter cells compare to the parent cell?
    They are IDENTICAL
  • What is the only team worth cheering for in the NFL? Only one answer is acceptable.
    The DENVER BRONCOS
  • What is the dominant trait in the following Punnett square?
    gray/speckled fur
