Karteikarten: Genetic Diversity and Cell Division — 10 Karten

Genetic Diversity — definition?

Variation of genes within a species.

Heredity — role?

Transmits traits from parents to offspring.

Cell division types — examples?

Mitosis and meiosis.

Mitosis — process?

Produces identical diploid daughter cells.

Meiosis — process?

Produces four genetically diverse haploid cells.

Chromosomes — behavior in mitosis?

Sister chromatids separate during anaphase.

Crossing-over — occurs in?

Meiosis I, during prophase I.

Allele frequency — change due to?

Genetic drift, gene flow, selection.

Mendel's law — states?

Segregation and independent assortment of alleles.

Genotype vs phenotype — difference?

Genotype is genetic makeup; phenotype is observable traits.
