Dolly, the cloned sheep, had telomeres that ___________________.

The essence of meiosis is that __________________________________.

In sexual reproducers, meiosis gives rise to _____________.

During ____, microtubules fasten the cell’s chromosomes to the spindle poles.

Which genetic situation could most likely have confounded Mendel in his recognition of independent assortment?

White fruit color in summer squash is influenced by a dominant allele W, whereas colored fruit must be ww. In the presence of ww, a dominant gene G results in yellow fruit, and homozygous gg results in green fruit. The F2 phenotypic ratios resulting from a cross of a true-breeding plant with white fruit (genotype WW GG) with a plant with green fruit will result in which phenotypic ratios?

Height, weight, and eye color are examples of phenotypes that illustrate

Dolly’s lifespan might have been extended by giving her supplementary ___.

In garden peas, one pair of alleles controls the height of the plant, and a second pair of alleles controls flower color. The allele for tall (D) is dominant to the allele for dwarf (d), and the allele for purple (P) is dominant to the allele for white (p). A tall plant with purple flowers crossed with a tall plant with white flowers produces 3/8 tall purple, 1/8 tall white, 3/8 dwarf purple, and 1/8 dwarf white. What is the genotype of the parents?

If a child more strongly resembles one parent’s physical traits than the other parent’s, the explanation could be due to chromosome movements during ________________.
