NA Biology: Lab 5 & 6___________________________________________________________________
List steps to set up a gel and how to run it (electrophoresis)
Buffer, gel, wells, lane, band
How to visualized DNA and how EtBr (ethidium bromide) works – intercalation
Factors that affect how far the DNA runs (6 main factors)
Know important abbreviation and nomenclature used: SNP, RFLP, RE, EcoRI, bp, kb
Describe and know relationships between: DNA, Palindromes, SNP, RFLP, RE
Identify a palindrome and how many pieces of DNA would result from RE digest given a palindrome
What is and how to do a ‘DNA RE digestion’
How to compare digestion patterns and match samples (“Who done it”?)
Measure distance of a band and purpose of a standard curve
Mitosis, Meiosis, & Inheritance: Lab 7_______________________________________________________
Definitions: interphase (steps) vs mitosis vs meiosis
Meiosis – steps, get four distinct haploid cell with ½ as many chromosomes
Mitosis – steps, get two identical diploid cell with the same number of chromosomes
Interphase – G1, S, G2 – growth and DNA synthesis
Identify and draw stages of mitosis in whitefish or onion root tip
Know definitions: genotype, phenotype, allele, homozygous, heterozygous, dominant, recessive
Define and differentiate Mendel’s Laws of Inheritance
WT (wild-type) vs mutant, from genotypic AND phenotypic standpoint
Perform monohybrid cross given phenotype/genotype data (what we did in class)
Given a numbers of individuals, determine if the trait is sex-linked or autosomal
Be able to sex fruit flies – “black butts”
Identify: WT, white eyes, dumpy wings, yellow bodies, and the other wing mutation in fruit flies
Tissues: Lab 8_________________________________________________________________________
Know general structure, function, composition, location (if applicable) of each type of tissue
see Tissues Study Guide
Be able to find the epithelial layer on a slide with multiple layers of tissue.
Be able to identify the type of tissue (general or specific) presented on a microscope.
Ex. Simple cuboidal vs stratified squamous vs transitional vs nerve
Know definitions: tissue, histology, apical, basal
Know the terms for the possible cell shapes and layers in epithelial tissue (don’t forget transitional and pseudostratified).
Be able to give a verbal description or sketch them.
Know the terms (define): lacuna, chondrocyte, matrix, osteon, lamella, canaliculi, central canal, microvilli, goblet cells, adipocyte, striations, and be able to identify them on a slide.
Be able to identify the type of muscle cell (skeletal, cardiac, smooth) on a slide.
Explain the roles of collagen and elastic fibers in connective tissue.
Be able to identify a neuron on a slide.
2) Ethedium bromides interchelates itself between the double helix of DNA- and can be visualised by UV light. Therefore it is used in electrophoresis. UV light camera is used to visualize DNA.
3) a) Charge of DNA
b) Size of DNA
c) Voltage of electric field
d) Adsorption of substance on medium
e) pH of buffer used.
f) Molecular slieving
4) SNP - Single nucleotide polymorphisms
RFLP - Restriction fragment length polymorphism
RE - Restriction endonuclease
EcoRI - ESCHERICHIA COLI RI
bp- base pair
kb - kilo bases

Can anyone help me with this? Thank you. Lab 13. Mitosis and Meiosis Purpose The purpose of this lab is to understand the process of mitosis and melosis in animal and plant cells. Learning Objectives After completing this lab, you will be able to: 1. Describe the stages of mitosis. 2. Identify the stages of mitosis in an onion root or whitefish blastula using a light microscope. 3. Describe how cytokinesis differs in plant vs. animal cells. 4. Name and...
please help and thank you Materials Needed per class: 1 box of 24 microscope slides of meiosis 1 1 box of 24 microscope slides of meiosis 2 red and yellow popbead chromosome kits Objectives To become familiar with the process of meiosis and to be able to identify the principal phases of meiosis To understand how the process of meiosis is similar to mitosis and how it differs from mitosis Introduction The genetic information of a cell is encoded in...

2. A dominant allele H reduces the number of body bristles that Drosophila flies have, giving rise to a “hairless” phenotype. In the homozygous condition, H is lethal. An independently assorting dominant allele S has no effect on bristle number except in the presence of H, in which case a single dose of S suppresses the hairless phenotype, thus restoring the "hairy" phenotype. However, S also is lethal in the homozygous (S/S) condition. What ratio of hairy to hairless flies...
Please read the article bellow and discuss the shift in the company's approach to genetic analysis. Please also discuss what you think about personal genomic companies' approaches to research. Feel free to compare 23andMe's polices on research with another company's. Did you think the FDA was right in prohibiting 23andMe from providing health information? These are some sample talking points to get you thinking about the ethics of genetic research in the context of Big Data. You don't have to...
