• There are three main types of memory: sensory, short-term and long-term memory.
• Base sequence on one strand of a DNA molecule

  AAT GCC AGT GGT
• Complementary strand produced when the DNA strand is replicated

  • TTACGGTCACCA
• The reproductive system is responsible for the production of sperm or egg cells and fertilization. Both male and female reproductive organs are regulated by hormones.
• Hormones do not target mutations during fertilization.
• Events leading to childbirth

  1. Stretching of the uterus triggers a release of oxytocin

  2. Baby's head pressing against the cervix triggers more oxytocin

  3. Mother is in full labor
• Body regulation and feedback present in the situation

  Positive feedback
• Main functions of the female reproductive system

  • Produces female sex cells
  • Receives sperm cells
  • Nourish the new individual
• Statements true about menstruation

  • Involves the shedding of the lining of the uterus
  • Usually last for 3 – 9 days and is accompanied by menstrual cramps
  • Hormones such as estrogen and progesterone are produced by the ovaries
• The body does not become dehydrated when body temperature rises.
• Cause of sickle cell anemia

  An inherited blood disorder where red blood cells (RBCs) become sickle/crescent shaped. It affects the shape of red blood cells, which carry oxygen to all parts of the body.
• Onset of menstruation


  Menarche
• A child learning to walk on his own does not show the process of adaptation.
• Pathway of the sperm to fertilize the egg cell


  Vagina → cervix → uterus → fallopian tube
• 1st day of last menstruation


  Mar 8
• Possible date of the next menstruation if the cycle lasts for 28 days


  April 5
• Hormones that cause FSH and LH to be released

  Gonadotrophin-releasing hormone
• Father of evolution


  Charles Darwin
• Another name for natural selection

  Survival of the fittest
• Correct example of homologous structures

  • Fingers of human and arm of starfish
  • Flipper of whale and forelimb of cat
• Steps of protein synthesis in correct order

  II-I-IV-III-VI-V
• Fertilization occurs in the fallopian tube while implantation happens in the uterus.
• Reason why organisms with close biochemical similarities show stronger evolutionary relationships

  They have a common ancestor and have the same kind of proteins.
• Building block of protein

  Amino acids
• Theory of Natural Selection

  In nature, the organisms with desirable characteristics may survive while those with weaker traits may not.
• Hormone produced in the ovary before ovulation


  Estrogen
• Difference between positive and negative feedback

  Negative feedback reverses changes in a system, while positive feedback amplifies changes in a system.
• Hormone that causes Leydig cells to make testosterone

  LH
• Correct order of hormones produced during the monthly cycle

  • FSH, estrogen, LH, progesterone
• Start codon


  AUG
• Hormones that signal ovulation

  LH
• Chromosome mutation where a piece of a chromosome breaks off and attaches to a different, non-homologous chromosome

  Translocation
• Class of mutation where only 1 gene is affected

  Point mutation
• The amino acid sequence of DNA with a sequence AAT CGG CTG GGA TTA is Leucine – Alanine – Aspartic Acid – Serine – Asparagine.
• Rocks in which fossils can be found

  Sedimentary
• Building blocks of a nucleotide

  • Base
  • Deoxyribose
  • Phosphate
• Key players of the DNA replication that build up the complementary strand

  DNA Polymerase
• Type of mutation that results in the sickle-cell disease phenotype

  Non-conservative missense mutation
• Group of 3 nucleotide sequences for an amino acid

  Codon
• Chromosomal aberration also known as Down syndrome


  Trisomy 21
