DNA Structure and Function - Call List

(Print) Use this randomly generated list as your call list when playing the game. There is no need to say the BINGO column name. Place some kind of mark (like an X, a checkmark, a dot, tally mark, etc) on each cell as you announce it, to keep track. You can also cut out each item, place them in a bag and pull words from the bag.

  1. the genetic constitution of an individual organism/an organism's complete set of genes
    genotype
  2. the organelle where DNA is found in eukaryotic cells
    nucleus
  3. The basic unit of heredity passed from parent to child. Genes are made up of sequences of DNA and are arranged, one after another, at specific locations on chromosomes in the nucleus of cells.
    gene
  4. guanine
    it is paired with cytosine in double stranded DNA
  5. the process by which the genome’s DNA is copied in cells. Before a cell divides, it must first copy (or replicate) its entire genome so that each resulting daughter cell ends up with its own complete genome.
    replication
  6. the "rungs" of the ladder in a DNA molecule
    bases
  7. the shape of a DNA molecule
    double helix
  8. Thymine
    it is paired with adenine in double-stranded DNA

    Adenine
  11. having two identical alleles of a particular gene or genes.
    homozygous
  12. one of the alternative forms of a gene

  13. a type of mutation that involves the addition of one or more nucleotides into a segment of DNA.
    insertion
  14. a type of molecule that performs the main functions of the cell
    protein
  15. a type of mutation that involves the loss of one or more nucleotides from a segment of DNA.
    deletion
  16. molecule that determines the traits that an individual inherits
    DNA
  17. the number of chromosomes in a human cell
    46
  18. a type of mutation in which one nucleotide is replaced by a different nucleotide.
    substitution
  19. to make a RNA copy of a gene's DNA sequence.
    goal of transcription
  20. threadlike structures made of protein and a single molecule of DNA that serve to carry the genomic information from cell to cell.
    chromosome
  21. cytosine
    it is paired with guanine in double stranded DNA
  22. having two different alleles of a particular gene or genes.
    heterozygous
  23. observable traits
    phenotype
