Genetics - Answer study of general mechanisms of heredity and the variation of inherited trait
Genomics - Answer the study of the function of all the nucleotide sequences present within the entire
genome of a species, including genes in DNA coding regions and in DNA non-coding regions
Genome - Answer all of a living thing's genetic material
Gene - Answer a specific set of instructions cells use to produce a specific protein
DNA - Answer the genetic material in a cell that contains genes
Chromosome - Answer a temporary structure that is a large chunk of DNA containing many genes
Short arm (p arm) - Answer the segments of chromosome above the centromere
long arm (q arm) - Answer the segments of chromosome below centromere
cDNA - Answer must remain perfectly parallel to each other
G1 - Answer cell takes on nutrients, generates more energy, increases membrane size and cytoplasm
S - Answer DNA replication
G2 - Answer Production of proteins important for cell division
, M - Answer Actual cell division with nuclear separation (nucleotinesis) followed by cell separation
(cytokinesis)
Haploid chromosome number (1N) - Answer a complete set of one of each chromesome (for humans
23 individual chromosomes
Diploid chromosome number (2N) - Answer a complete set of both pairs of all chromosomes
Polypoidy - Answer the condition of having additional whole sets of extra chromosomes in a nucleus
Metacentric chromosomes - Answer the centromere close to the center of the chromosome with the p
arms and q arms close to the same length
Submetacentric chromosomes - Answer the centromere that is not in the center, so the p arms are
clearly shorter than the q arms
Acrocentric chromosomes - Answer the centromere at the top of the q arms, and there is little or no p
arm material
Genotype - Answer the exact allele pair composition present for any given single-gene trait
Phenotype - Answer an organism's actual observed properties, such as morphology, development or
behavior

Translation - Answer mRNA is used to assemble an amino acid sequence into a polypeptide
DNA - Answer double-stranded, deoxyribose, A-T, C-G
