1C: Classical Genetics Flashcards
1
Q
When does crossing-over occur?
A
Prophase I of meiosis- exchange genetic information
2
Q
analogous structures vs homologous structures
A
analogous-structures evolve independently to carry out same function
homologous- similar evolutionary history (same source) with different functions
3
Q
convergent evolution
A
unrelated or distantly related organisms evolve similar body forms and adaptations
4
Q
Main difference between mitosis and meiosis during anaphase?
A
mitosis-sister chromatids separated at centromeres
meiosis anaphase I-homologous pairs of chromosomes separated into 2 daughter cells and sister chromatids separate during anaphase II
5
Q
transduction
A
genes transferred by virus
