Front

What are ribosomes known as?

Back

Protein factories found on the rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER).

Front

What is the complementary nucleotide for Cytosine in DNA?

Back

Guanine.

Front

What are the possible genotypes when a homozygous dominant dog (BB) is crossed with a heterozygous dog (Bb)?

Back

50% BB and 50% Bb.

Front

How does polymerase replicate DNA along the leading strand?

Back

Continuously.

Front

What is the genotype for a yellow plant if G = green and g = yellow?

Back

gg.

Front

Define homozygous dominant.

Back

An organism with two identical dominant alleles for a trait (e.g., BB).

Front

Define heterozygous.

Back

An organism with two different alleles for a trait (e.g., Bb).

Front

What is the function of DNA polymerase?

Back

To synthesize new DNA strands by adding nucleotides complementary to the template strand.

Front

What is the base pairing rule in DNA?

Back

Adenine pairs with Thymine, and Cytosine pairs with Guanine.

Front

What is the difference between genotype and phenotype?

Back

Genotype refers to the genetic makeup (e.g., BB, Bb, bb), while phenotype refers to the observable traits (e.g., brown fur, yellow color).
