Tumor Suppressor Genes
Give this one a try later!
signal cells to pause the cell cycle to fix mistakes
How many chromosomes are in a human cell?
Give this one a try later!
23 pairs, total 46 chromosomes
Binary Fission
,Give this one a try later!
A type of asexual reproduction in which one parental cell divides into two
How are X-linked traits inherited?
Give this one a try later!
Inherited on the X chromosome, only effects the son because of only one X
chromosome
Gene Flow
Give this one a try later!
The movement of alleles from one population to another, which may
increase the genetic diversity of a population
How can you be a staph carrier?
Give this one a try later!
Staph spreads through skin to skin contact, and skin and immune system
protects us, unless contact is made with a wound and enter the body
Bottleneck Effect
, Give this one a try later!
A type of genetic drift that occurs when a population is suddenly reduced
to a small number of individuals, and alleles are lost from the population as
a result
Chemotherapy and the Cell Cycle
Give this one a try later!
Damages DNA strands to inhibit cell replication
What cells undergo meiosis?
Give this one a try later!
Gametes (pass genetic info to the next generation)
Founder Effect
Give this one a try later!
A type of genetic drift in which a small number of individuals leaves one
population and establishes a new population; by chance the newly
established population may have lower genetic diversity than the original
population
