anemia - ANSWER: a condition in which the blood is deficient in red blood cells

blood plasma - ANSWER: pale yellow fluid portion of whole blood that consists of
water and dissolved consituents

erythrocytes - ANSWER: aka red blood cells, hemoglobin-carrying cells that carry
oxygen to the tissues and are responsible for the red color of the vertebrate blood

leukocytes - ANSWER: aka white blood cells, colorless, lack of hemoglobin, and help
prevent infection

hematocrit - ANSWER: percent of the volume of whole blood that is composed of red
blood cells as determined by separation of red blood cells from the plasma

sickle cell disease - ANSWER: homozygous gene hemoglobin S, destruction of red
blood cells by episodic blocking and dis form the shape of cells

thrombocytes - ANSWER: aka platelets, assists in blood clotting by adhering to other
platelets and damaged epithelium

formula for hematocrit - ANSWER: blood cells divided by total, times 100

amino acid - ANSWER: an organic monomer which serves as a building block of
proteins

anticodon - ANSWER: a triplet nucleotide bases in tRNA that identifies the amino
acid carried and binds to a complementary codon in mRNA during protein synthesis

codon - ANSWER: a three-nucleotide sequence of DNA or mRNA that specifies a
particular amino acid or termination signal, basic unit of a genetic code

hydrophilic - ANSWER: having an affinity for water

hydrophobic - ANSWER: having an aversion for water, tending to coalesce and form
droplets in water

messenger RNA - ANSWER: a type of RNA synthesized from DNA and attached to
ribosomes in the cytoplasm; it specifies the primary structure of a protein

persons who has only one copy of the gene associated with the trait

gene - ANSWER: a discrete unit of hereditary information

genetic material - ANSWER: molecules responsible for heredity and variation of
organisms

genotype - ANSWER: all or part of the genetic constitution of an individual of group
