50%
In humans, brown eyes (B) are dominant over blue eyes (b). A brown-eyed woman who has a blue-eyed child would have the genotype
Bb
A geneticist finds three copies of chromosome 21 in the karyotype of a patient, leading to the conclusion that the patient has what anomaly?
Down syndrome
In a Mendelian monohybrid cross, which generation is always completely heterozygous.
F1
Mitosis and meiosis both produce genetically identical daughter cells.
FALSE
What role does oxygen play in cellular respiration?
It acts as the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain.
Water is split and oxygen is released during which process in photosynthesis?
Light Reactions
Which of the following are coenzymes which assist in cellular respiration?
NAD+ and FAD
What is(are) the end product(s) of the light reactions in photosynthesis?
NADPH and ATP
The last step in the Calvin cycle is
RuBP regeneration.
Why is water split during photosynthesis?
To replace the electron lost in photosystem II
What material(s) are put into the Krebs Cycle?
acetyl groups
Gametes and spores
are haploid.
If a new kind of slug were found which had a system of sex determination just like that of humans, it would have
both sex chromosomes and autosomes.
The major goal of the Calvin cycle is to produce what material?
carbohydrate
During the process of photosynthesis, which of the following products are formed?
carbohydrate and oxygen
Which of the following is reduced as a result of the Calvin cycle?
carbon dioxide
In a study of the raw materials used for photosynthesis, what two kinds of molecules would be studied?
carbon dioxide and water
Which of the following are the end products for cellular respiration?
carbon dioxide and water
Which of the following terms would be used for an allele which can mask the expression of another allele?
dominant
Which of the following phases takes place entirely outside the mitochondria and is considered to be anaerobic?
glycolysis
The second meiotic division is essentially a mitotic The second meiotic division is essentially a mitotic division except for the fact that the cells produced are
haploid.
When an organism has two different alleles for a particular trait, which term best describes this condition?
heterozygous
When an organism has two identical alleles for a trait we would refer to this condition as:
homozygous
What is the significance of the cristae in the mitochondria?
increase surface area, therefore increasing the electron transport chain
Mitosis and meiosis differ in that
mitosis does not change the number of chromosomes per cell.
When a trait has more than two different forms, the gene has
multiple alleles
What are the reactants involved in cellular respiration?
oxygen and glucose
Which of the following terms is represented by word descriptions, such as brown or tall?
phenotype
When two or more sets of alleles affect the same trait, it is referred to as
polygenic inheritance.
Crossing-over occurs during which of the following phases?
prophase I
As a result of glycolysis, one molecule of glucose is broken into two molecules of
pyruvate
Flattened sacs within the chloroplast are known as
thylakoids
The ATP which is made during the electron transport chain is made at which site?
ATP synthase complex
What are alleles?
alternative forms of a gene for a single trait, such as blue eyes and brown eyes
A doctor inserts a long needle into the uterus and removes some fluid to perform a genetic test. Which of the following procedures did the doctor perform?
amniocentesis
An organism that has more or less than the normal number of chromosomes is called:
aneuploid.
The substance that initially traps solar energy in photosynthesis is
chlorophyll.
Which part of cellular respiration produces the greatest amount of ATP?
electron transport chain
What role do NADH and FADH2 play in the process of cellular respiration?
They carry electrons to the electron transport chain.
In humans, brown eyes (B) are dominant over blue eyes (b). If a homozygous brown-eyed woman mates with a homozygous blue-eyed man, what would be the chances of producing a blue-eyed child?
0%
What is the net yield of ATP from glycolysis of one glucose molecule?
ATP
The reason that deciduous leaves turn red and yellow in the fall is
When chlorophyll breaks down, the red and yellow pigments which are already present become visible.
When two different dominant alleles are both fully expressed in the phenotype, it is referred to as
codominance.
The order of the major pathways and reactions of cellular respiration is
glycolysis-preparatory reaction-Krebs cycle-electron transport chain.
