Question
Answer
show A strand of DNA with associated proteins; usually found in the nucleus of a cell; the basis of heredity.  
🗑
show A segment of DNA in which the sequence of nucleotides codes for a specific protein (or part of a protein), which in turn contributes to a specific characteristic.  
🗑
diploid   show
🗑
show The division of one cell into two cells; includes mitosis and cytokinesis.  
🗑
show The phase of a cell's life cycle before cell division; genes are copied during this period.  
🗑
mitosis   show
🗑
show The first phase of mitosis; when chromosomes coil and sister chromatids become obvious.  
🗑
show The second phase of mitosis; the chromosomes align by their centromeres across the middle of the spindle.  
🗑
show The third phase of mitosis; during this phase the daughter chromosomes move to opposite ends of the spindle.  
🗑
show The last phase of mitosis; when sister chromatids reach the ends of the spindle and the nucleus re-forms.  
🗑
cytokinesis   show
🗑
asexual reproduction   show
🗑
show The joining of haploid gametes to form a diploid zygote, which develops into a new individual.  
🗑
show The process whereby one diploid cell forms haploid cells (gametes).  
🗑
gamete   show
🗑
show Having only one of each chromosome normally found in the cells of an organism, such as in gametes;human haploid number is 23.  
🗑
fertilization   show
🗑
zygote   show
🗑
DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid)   show
🗑
show A nucleic acid made of a single chain of nucleotides; functions with ribosomes to form proteins  
🗑
show The RNA molecule that transports a coded message from the nucleus to the cytoplasm.  
🗑
show The manufacture of a single mRNA strand from a DNA molecule.  
🗑
show The manufacturing of protein inside a cell.  
🗑
show The RNA molecule that transfers amino acids to the messenger RNA.  
🗑
codon   show
🗑
nucleotide   show
🗑
DNA replication   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.
