BIOD 210 GENETICS MODULE 1 EXAM
QUESTIONS AND CORRECT ANSWERS
Chromosomes exist within cells in pairs called? - correct
answer- Homologous chromosomes
Each organism carries a specific number of chromosomes called
the? - correct answer- Diploid number (2n)
Epigenesis - correct answer- Concept correctly hypothesized
that a fertilized human egg undergoes specific developmental
events that eventually lead to the formation of a human
Genetic mutations result in? - correct answer- Different
alleles
Genotype - correct answer- Set of alleles that are carried by
an organism that produce a certain trait
How do bacterial restriction enzymes function? - correct
answer- By cutting and inactivating the DNA of invasive
viruses
, Normal in genetic terms is the gene that occurs most often in a
population, this gene is the? - correct answer- Wild-type
allele
Phenotype - correct answer- Observable feature produced by
a gene
Preformation - correct answer- Concept that a fertilized egg
contains a tiny version of a completely developed adult
(homunculus)
Spontaneous generation - correct answer- Living things could
spontaneously generate from nonliving components
What are the four different nucleotides which have different
nitrogenous bases? - correct answer- Adenine (A), Guanine
(G), Thymine (T), and Cytosine (C)
What birthed today's genetics? - correct answer- The merge
of Mendel's genetics teachings with the theory of inheritance
