Answer: ribosome 15 Name two cellular organelles, each having genetic material, that are involved in either photosynthesis or respiration. Answer: chloroplasts and mitochondria 16 List four terms used to describe the normal morphologies, with respect to arm ratio, of eukaryotic chromosomes. Answer: metacentric, submetacentric, acrocentric, telocentric.

Which chromosomes making up a genome do not follow the same characteristics of homology? Answer: sex-determining chromosomes 18 How many haploid sets of chromosomes are present in a diploid individual cell with a chromosome number of 46? Answer: 2; 2 19 How many haploid sets of chromosomes are present in an individual cell that is tetraploid 4n?

Answer: 4 20 In which stage of the cell cycle is G0 located? Answer: G0 22 The house fly, Musca domestica, has a haploid chromosome number of 6.

How many chromatids should be present in a diploid, somatic, metaphase cell? Answer: 24 23 Regarding the mitotic cell cycle, what is meant by a checkpoint?

Answer: A checkpoint is the portion of a cell cycle that is sensitive to a variety of conditions that impact the eventual health of the cell or individual.

It serves as a potential halting point to facilitate DNA repair. Pearson offers affordable and accessible purchase options to meet the needs of your students. Connect with us to learn more. William S. He served as chair of the Biology Department for 17 years, a position to which he was first elected in He received his B.

His research interests have involved ultrastructural and molecular genetic studies of oogenesis in Drosophila. He has taught the genetics course as well as the senior capstone seminar course in human and molecular genetics to undergraduate biology majors for each of the last 35 years.

In , he was the recipient of the initial teaching award given at the College of New Jersey granted to the faculty member who most challenges students to achieve high standards. Michael R. For more than 25 years, he was a faculty member in the Department of Biological Sciences and in the Department of Molecular Genetics at the University of Illinois at Chicago.

Mary's College in Winona, Minnesota, and his M. In addition to Essentials of Genetics and its companion volumes, he has also authored several texts in human genetics and general biology for non-majors.

His research interests center on the molecular organization and physical mapping of the heterochromatic regions of human acrocentric chromosomes. At the undergraduate level, he teaches courses in Mendelian and molecular genetics, human genetics, and general biology, and has received numerous awards for teaching excellence given by university faculty, student organizations, and graduating seniors. Charlotte A. She has also served as a faculty member in the Department of Biochemistry at the University of Alberta.

She received her B. Her research interests involve the regulation of RNA polymerase II transcription in cancer cells, cells infected with DNA viruses and cells transversing the mitotic phase of the cell cycle. She has taught courses in Biochemistry, Genetics, Molecular Biology and Oncology, at both undergraduate and graduate levels.

She has contributed Genetics, Technology and Society essays for several editions of Concepts of Genetics as well as Essentials of Genetics. In addition, she has written booklets in the Exploring Biology series, which are aimed at the undergraduate nonmajors level. Michael A. He directs an active laboratory of undergraduate student researchers studying molecular mechanisms involved in innate immunity of mammalian male reproductive organs and genes involved in oxygen homeostasis and ischemic injury of the testis.

He has taught a wide range of courses for both majors and nonmajors and currently teaches genetics, biotechnology, endocrinology, and laboratory in cell and molecular biology.

In addition to Essentials of Genetics and its companion volumes, he is co-author of the undergraduate textbook Introduction to Biotechnology, Series Editor for the Benjamin Cummings Special Topics in Biology booklet series, and author of the first booklet in the series, Understanding the Human Genome Project.
