1. What are the four bases of DNA: Cytocine, guanine, adenine, and thymine -CGAT
2. What are the four bases of RNA?: cytosine, guanine, adenine, uracil- CGAU
3. Cytosine pairs with: Guanine
4. Thymine pairs with: Adenine
5. mRNA: transmits the genetic code of the DNA to the ribosomes for protein synthesis
6. transfers RNA to specific amino acids: tRNA
7. Is the RNA that is an intregal part of the ribosomes: rRNA
8. DNA is double stranded and paired, and RNA is: not paired and single strand
9. The section of DNA that determines traits or characteristics?: Gene
10. Allele: different versions of a gene, which vary according to the nucleotide base present at a particular genome
location. An individual's combination of alleles is known as their genotype- hair/eye color
11. Allele's occur in pairs and are located at certain points or: loci on chromosome, and
control the same characteristic
12. Diploid cells have: two sets of chromosomes (46)
13. Germ cells (male or female): Have 22 autosomes, and either X or Y chromosome for 23 total
14. If condition inherited through 22 autosomes...then it is: autosomal
15. If condition is inherited through X chromosome...then it is: X linked
16. Genotype is the: gene expression
17. Phenotype is the: physical trait of the allele - blue eyes , black hair, skin color
18. Genotypes can be homozygous or heterozygous- homozygous means it
has: two alleles that are the same, heterozygous is two different alleles
19. Do you get one allele from each parent?: Yes
20. If the allele is Dominant - you only need ? how many to cause the condition?-
: One
21. Recessive trait inheritance requires: one recessive allele from each parent
22. Neurofibromatosis is an example of an: autosomal dominant disease (only need one of the
alleles to have the condition)
23. If both parents have one recessive gene, then what percentage will have the
autosomal recessive trait?: 25%
24. Sickle cell anemia and cystic fibrosis are examples of: autosomal recessive inheritance
25. X linked dominant - means every person: Will have the condition
