theory that organisms with favorable traits are most successful in reproduction
What type of cells are fertilized eggs? haploid or diploid
Diploid
Alleles
two of more different forms of a certain gene
In a diploid cell, each individual chromosome has a twin chromosome called____.
homologous
Mutations
changes in DNA that affect the way a gene functions
Adaptation
Receive, Interpret, and respond to internal and external stimuli via nervous system
What is cytokinesis?
Separtation of two sets of chromosomes into different cells. Then mitosis is complete.
Nucleic Acids
to store and transmit hereditary information

contains nucleotides: pentose, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base
What phase is when:
The spindle fibers form and the centrioles moves to the opposite sides of the cell. The nuclear membrane disapears.
Mitosis

Prophase
Pentose
a sugar
What phase is when:
the chromosomes begin to separate from their daughters. Cytokineses begins.
mitosis

Anaphase
Double Helix
DNA- weak bonds are able to form between the hydrogen atoms and oxygen or nitrogen atoms between bases and strands of DNA
What phase is it when:
Identical sets of chromosomes are at the opposite ends of the cells. Spindle fibers disappear,nuclear membranes reappear, and cytokinesis completes.
mitosis

Telophase
Hydrogen Bond
a weak bond.....
What phase is it called when:
Homologous chromosomes condense and link in the process forming tetrad. This allows crossing over or recombination to occur.
Meiosis
Prophase I
Purines
two rings on double helix (Adenine and Guanine)
What phase is it called when:
Homologous chromosomes separate, but the sister chromatids stay together.
Meiosis
Anaphase I
Pyrimidines
One Ring on double helix (Thymine and Cytosine and Uracil)
What phase is called when:
Cytokinesis has occurred and two haploid daughter cells are the result
Meiosis
Telophase I
RNA
A single stranded string of nucleotides
What phase is it when:
Four haploid cells result after cytokinesis
Meiosis
Telophase II
Proteins
made from ribosomes
Transcription
cells copy the instructions in the DNA into RNA
Translation
the process of protein production from messenger RNA
Prokaryotic
(Bacteria)
Cell Wall, Cytoplasm, Nucleoid Plasmids, Ribosomes, Flangella
Cytoplasm
rich protein fluid with gel-like consistency that houses organelles (tiny organs)
