  • Which example below refers to asexual reproduction?
    a fish getting genetic information from two parents
    an apple seed created from pollinated flowers
    two squid mating to create a new squid
    an new potato growing from an older potato
  • A shrimp is the offspring of a father with long antenna and a mother with short antenna. This shrimp has medium antenna
    because the gene from mom and dad created a protein for medium antenna
    because the gene split the difference between long and short antenna
    because the gene from ONLY dad created a protein for medium antenna
    because the gene from ONLY mom created a protein for medium antenna
  • Jada has blue eyes, but her brother has brown. They have the same parents. Why is their eye color different?
    the siblings have different gene combinations that connect in the cell
    all babies have different color eyes from their parents
    the siblings have different protein combinations that connect in the cell
    the siblings got different genes from their mom and dad
  • Two cats had the same proteins, but then one of the proteins in one cat changed. What will happen to cat's functions?
    the protein changed so the function changed
    the protein changed but the function stays the same
  • Two coyotes (w/diff parents) have different paw shapes. Each has a diff protein for paw shapes. This means...
    they will have the same paws because the proteins still connect in the cell
    they will have different shaped paws because the parents have diff genes
    they will have different paws because of protein combinations in the cell
    they will have different paws because of gene combinations in the cell
  • Two tigers have different parents. Each tiger has the same protein for whisker color. Which statement must be true?
    all tigers have the same whisker color
    they will have different whisker colors because of their different parents
    they have the same proteins so the whisker color will be the same
    they will have diff whisker colors b/c proteins can connect in diff ways
  • These three lizards have diff proteins for tongue color. They all have diff parents. What must be true?
    they will all have different tongue colors because of their proteins
    they will have the same tongue color because all lizards have the same
    they will have the same tongue color because all siblings have similarities
    they will all have different tongue colors because of their parents
  • Which example DOES NOT describe sexual reproduction?
    A male and female parrot creating a red parrot offspring
    An anemone splitting in two and creating a new offspring
    A lizard getting genetic material from two parents
    Two seals mating to create a new seal
  • A butterfly has yellow wings. It's mother had colorless wings and it's father had yellow wings. This means it inherited
    one copy of genes from dad and none from mom
    one copy of genes from mom and none from dad
    one copy of genes from mom and dad; the protein combination was colorless
    one copy of genes from mom and dad; the protein combination was yellow
  • Why is the nucleus the most important part of a cell?
    The nucleus makes ribosomes copies that create genes
    The nucleus contains the gene versions that create proteins
    The nucleus is not an important part of the cell
    The nucleus contains the proteins that make a person unique
  • Which set of alleles is heterozygous?
    F5F5
    F1F5
  • A father fox has long ears while a mother has short. Which statement explains why one baby fox could have short ears?
    the gene combination from mom and dad created proteins for short ears
    the baby fox did not get any genes from the father
    the gene combination from mom and dad made genes connect together for short
    the baby fox did not get any genes from the mother
  • Two sheep have the same proteins for wool density. They have different parents. What is true about their wool?
    it will be the same because the proteins are the same
    it will be different because no two sheep are identical
    it will be the same because all sheep have the same density of wool
    it will be different because the parents are different
  • Two trout (w/diff parents) have diff tail shapes. Why are their tails different from each other?
    they have different parents so they have different tail shapes
    they have diff versions of the gene which instruct to build diff proteins
    one of the trouts have genes that are split inside their cell
    they have different versions of the gene for tail shape
  • Two cats (w/different parents) have different fur colors; one black and one brown. Why is their fur different?
    different versions of the genes makes gene connections different
    different versions of the genes which make different genes
    different versions of the gene which makes different proteins
    different versions of fur color come from their different parents
  • Two birds with diff parents have different sized talons (nails). What does this tell you about their proteins?
    their proteins connect in a different way
    their proteins connect in the same way
    there is no way to know about proteins without a microscope
    they are missing the protein to build talons (nails)
  • A dog has one brown eye and one blue eye. Why did this mutation happen?
    mom had blue eyes and dad had brown
    the gene was changed at random
    the genes never change in an animal
    mutations are not a real thing
  • Where do you inherit your genes?
    from your parents
    from your grandparents
    from aunts and uncles
    from a random selection of genes in a species of humans
