| show | Any of the alternative forms of a gene that may occur at the same place on a chromosome, for example, the genes responsible for blood type that are found on chromosome 9.
🗑
|
||||
| show | A chromosome that is not directly involved in determining sex (such as chromosomes 1–22), as opposed to the sex chromosomes X and Y.

| eukaryotic | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | An autosomal, dominant genetic disorder that disrupts the body's ability to eliminate low-density lipoprotein (LDL) from the blood, resulting in an increased risk of heart attack.
🗑

| genome | show 🗑
|

| heterozygous | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | Chromosome pairs, one from each parent, having similar gene composition, size, and structure.
🗑
|

| show | Having two identical alleles at one location on two homologous chromosomes.
🗑

||||
| magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) | show 🗑
|
||||
| malignant | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | The cellular process that results in the number of chromosomes in gamete-producing cells being reduced by half; also involves a reduction division, in which one of each pair of paired chromosomes passes to each daughter cell.
🗑
|
||||
| show | A type of RNA that is transcribed from DNA and translated by ribosomes in the cytoplasm to produce proteins.
🗑

| metastasis | show 🗑
|
||||
| mitosis | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | A rare change in genetic material, which ultimately creates genetic diversity within a species.
🗑
|
||||
| show | An accident during mitosis or meiosis, in which members of a pair of homologous chromosomes or sister chromatids fail to move apart properly.
🗑
|
||||
| show | A building block of DNA that consists of a five-carbon sugar covalently bonded to a nitrogenous base and a phosphate group.
🗑
|
||||
| show | A diagram that shows the occurrence of phenotypes through several generations of genetically related individuals. Symbols are used to represent each individual.
🗑
|
||||
| phenotype | show 🗑

🗑
|
||||
| recessive allele | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | A degradative enzyme that recognizes specific nucleotide sequences and cuts DNA at these sequences called restriction sites. Also known as a restriction endonuclease.
🗑
|
||||
| show | A type of nucleic acid consisting of nucleotide monomers with a ribose sugar and the nitrogenous bases (G, C, A) and uracil (U). RNA is usually single stranded and functions in protein synthesis and as the genome of some viruses.
🗑
|
||||
| show | One of the pair of chromosomes that determines the sex of an individual. The sex chromosomes are X and Y.
🗑
|
||||
| silent mutation | show 🗑
|

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
To hide a column, click on the column name.
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
