Final Jeopardy
Genetics
What are polygenic traits?
Because they are controlled by a number of different
genes, these traits are difficult to predict.

What are polymers?
Large molecules composed of long chains of basic
individual subunits are called this.
Biochemistry

$500
What is the cell wall?
This cell structure (absent in animal cells) is largely
responsible for the rigidity of plant cells.
Cell Theory
$100
What are mitochondria?
This organelle – the site of cellular respiration – is
referred to as the “powerhouse” of the cell.
Organelles
$200
What is the chloroplast?
This organelle is the site of sugar production in
autotrophic organisms.
Organelles
$300
What is the nucleus?
This organelle is only found in eukaryotic cells, and
contains the genetic material.
Organelles
$400
What is the nucleolus?
This organelle is responsible for production of ribosomes.
Organelles
$500
What is the Rough ER?
It is along the folds of this organelle that ribosomes
work with RNA molecules to build proteins.
Organelles
$100
What is the control group?
This is the group of subjects in an experiment that is used as the basis for comparison in
analyzing results.

Scientific Method
$300
What are inferences?
Logical interpretations or explanations based on observations and prior
knowledge.
Scientific Method
$400
What is a variable?
In order for an experiment to produce good data, the
scientist should make sure that he/she is testing only one
of these.Scientific Method
$500
What is the independent variable?
This is the variable in an experiment that is deliberately being
manipulated.
Scientific Method
$100
What is sexual reproduction?
The primary purpose of meiosis is to prepare for this.
Mitosis & Meiosis
$200
What is interphase?
It is during this stage in the cell cycle that DNA replicates
itself in preparation for cell division.
Mitosis & Meiosis
$300
What is 23?
It is the number of chromosomes found in a normal human gamete
resulting from a meiotic division.
Mitosis & Meiosis
$400
What is metaphase?
During this phase in mitosis, chromosomes line up along
the center of the cell.
Mitosis & Meiosis
$500
What is cytokinesis?
Immediately following mitosis, this process
completes the division of the cell into two identical
daughter cells.Mitosis & Meiosis
$200
What is chlorophyll?
These molecules are used to absorb the solar energy
needed to excite electrons in the “Light” Reactions.
Photosynthesis
$400
What is the Calvin Cycle?
Also called the “Dark” or Light-independent Reactions,
this process can take place with or without the presence
of light.Photosynthesis
$600
What are carbon dioxide and/or ATP?
The Light-Independent Reactions can continue in the
absence of light until the supply of one of these
molecules is exhausted.Photosynthesis
$800
What is the production of glucose?
It is the primary purpose of photosynthesis.
Photosynthesis
$1000
What is carbon dioxide?
This raw material for photosynthesis is necessary for the Light-Independent
Reactions to proceed.
Photosynthesis
$200
What are heterotrophs?
These types of organisms must consume food to obtain the energy necessary to run their metabolic processes.
Cellular Respiration
$400
What is six?
For each glucose molecule in cellular respiration, this many molecules of carbon dioxide
are produced.
Cellular Respiration
$600
What is ATP?
This molecule is referred to as the “energy currency” of
the cell.
Cellular Respiration
$800
What is anaerobic respiration?
This type of respiration does not require the presence of
oxygen.
Cellular Respiration
$1000
What is glycolysis?
This process is the first step in cellular respiration.
Cellular Respiration

What is a Punnett Square?
These are useful for predicting the probability of
producing each genotype combination from a given set
of parents.Genetics

What is crossing-over?
This event that occurs during meiosis is responsible for
increasing genetic variability.
Genetics
$1000
What is codominant?
When two different alleles are both expressed when present in
the same individual, they are said to be this.
Genetics
$200
What is phenotype?
Rather than describing the combination of alleles in an
individual, this term refers to the appearance of the trait.
