What process produces gametes?
Meiosis!
If an organism has 20 chromosomes in a body cell, how many chromosomes will it have in an egg cell?
10  See diagram on board
What is part # 7?
Ribosome
What does XX and XY mean?

What organs produce Male and Female gametes?
Ovary produces Eggs in a woman. Testes produce sperm in a man.

Because it produces genetic variation or diversity because of the contributions of genes Mom and Dad!
Is it possible for two homozygous parents to have a heterozygous child?
Yes, if one parent is homozygous dominant and the pther is homozygous recessive!
B- brown eyes b- blue eyes Cross a homozygous dominant male with a heterozygous female.
BB crossed with Bb

List a hybrid and a purebred genotype?
Hybrid - Heterozygous  Purebred - Homozygous
T- short toe t- long toe Is it possible for two short toe parents to have a long toe child?
Tiny organs
How are DNA and chromosomes related?
Chromosomes are made of DNA and proteins.
What is a karyotype?
Any good answer is acceptable!
Are genetic mutations a good thing or a bad thing?
They can be good or bad.
What is the matching strand of DNA code? AATGCGGCTA
  TTACGCCGAT
How are Mitosis and Meiosis similar and different?
Both duplicate their DNA but meiosis results in half the number of chromosomes.
What are traits?
Characteristics of an organism
What is a gene?
A short section of a chromosome that contains information about a trait.
What does the phrase “form follows function” mean?
It means an objects shape is related to its job.
What is genetic engineering?
Any reasonable answer!
What is a zygote?
A fertilized egg!
What is diffusion?
Diffusion is  the process by which molecules spread from areas of high concentration, to areas of low concentration.  When the molecules are even throughout a space - it is called EQUILIBRIUM .
What is osmosis?
The  the diffusion of water (across a membrane)
