When did man first appear on the planet according to the evolution lab? |
2-4 Million years ago
|
|
|
|
What is the number of chromosomes in somatic and gamete cells for humans? |
46 |
|
|
|
One of two or more alternative forms of a gene that arise by mutation and are found at the same place on a chromosome. |
Alleles |
|

|
What is the differences between mitosis and meiosis |
Meiosis has two rounds of genetic separation and cellular division Mitosis only has one round of each. Meiosis- homologous chromosomes separate leading to daughter cells that are not genetically identical. Mitosis- the daughter cells are identical to the parent as well as to each other |
4 listed |

|
|
The first step of gene expression, in which a particular segment of DNA is copied into RNA (mRNA) by the enzyme RNA polymerase. |

Translation |
|
|
|
The process of producing two identical replicas from one original DNA molecule. |
Replication |
