How are mitosis and meiosis similar

they both produce new cells(apex)

they both have prophase and metaphase (anaphase)

They both involve duplicating chromosomes.

they both have simular steps.

Why did Mendel use pea plants in his experiments

They Self-fertilize. -Apex

What happens during interphase

the chromosomes are duplicated.

What is produced by meiosis

Reproductive cells-- egg or sperm cells--or produced by meiosis.

Why was it important for Mendel to count large numbers of plants

it gives him a more accurate description of the living plant.

Why did mendel use pea plants in his experiment

They produce many offspring

How are tumor cells different from normal cells

Mitosis is not regulated in tumor cells. This can cause the rapid proliferation of a large number of non-functional cells, whose only actions are to divide into more cells.

Tumor cells multiply too quickly.

What evidence did Mendel find that supported his law of independent assortment

One trait does not affect whether another trait will be passed on. -Apex

How many recessive alleles must a person have to have albinism

2

How do the daughter cells produced by mitosis compare to the original cell

The daughter cells are identical to the original cell.

What happens directly after prophase

Metaphase

A plant can have either brown B or red b leaves Brown is the dominant trait If a plant has genotype bb which best describes the plant

Homozygous with brown leaves

What was the purpose of Mendel's experiments with dihybrid crosses

He wanted to determine if traits affected each other, and concluded (based on his observations) that they did not.

+ To find out if traits could affect the inheritance of other traits.

to determine if traits affected each other

What was the purpose of the dihybrid crosses experiment

The purpose of Mendel's dihybrid cross experiment was to find out if one trait can affect the inheritance of other traits.

A cactus can either have long needles L or short needles l A cactus grower crosses two cacti what is the result what is the phenotype ratio for the cross

3 long, 1 short

Which best describes the daughter cells produced by mitosis

they are identical to the cell they formed
