In terms of alleles, what is the best definition of "Dominant"

Dominance means only 1 allele is required to display a characteristic

Dominance means 2 alleles are required to display a characteristic

Dominance means no alleles are required to display a characteristic

In terms of alleles, what is the best definition of "Recessive"

Recessive means 2 alleles are required to display a characteristic

Recessive means only 1 allele is required to display a characteristic

Recessive means no alleles are needed to display a characteristic

What effect do mutations have on genetic variation?

Mutations increase genetic variation

Mutations decrease genetic variation

Mutations have no effect on genetic variation

When an individual has one dominant and one recessive allele...

the dominant allele is expressed

the recessive allele is expressed

What is the main idea behind Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection?

There is variation in a population. Those more suited to the environment will be more likely to survive and pass on their characteristics.

Individuals develop characteristics during their lifetimes, which make them more suited to their environment. They pass those on to their offspring.

How are genes "cut out" from chromosomes in genetic engineering?

Genes are "cut out" using bacteria

Genes are "cut out" using a surgical knife

Which of the following is the most appropriate definition for a fossil?

The remains of organisms from millions of years ago

A geological formation (rock) with a bone contained inside it

The remains of animals from millions of years ago

What are pieces of evidence that support Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection [Tick all that apply]

Bacteria with antibiotic resistance have evolved

Characteristics are passed to offspring in genes

Certain organisms have become extinct

Religious evidence points towards evolution

Suggest reasons why someone may be against embryonic screening. [Tick all that apply]

May lead to prejudice against those with genetic disorders

May lead to a bias against those without certain characteristics (designer babies)

May lead to an increase in abortions, which some people view as the murder

In genetic engineering, what is a vector?

The thing used to insert the desired gene in to the desired organism

An organism which spreads disease
