1. a. the building block of dna and rna, comprised of a sugar, a phosphate group, and one of the four nitrogen bases: adenine (a) 2. a. one of the four nitrogen bases that make up dna and rna; pairs with thymine in dna and uracil in rna: thymine (t) 3. a. one of the four nitrogen bases; pairs with adenine: guanine (g) 4. a. one of the four nitrogen bases that makes up dna and rna; pairs with cytosine: cytosine (c) 5. a. one of the four nitrogen bases; pairs with guanine: complementary bases. 6. a. the predictable pairing of nitrogen bases in the structure of dna and rna: single nucleotide polymorphisms (snps) 7. a. variations in the dna sequence due to the change of a single nitrogen base. Anthro 2200h: patriline, dna whose inheritance can be traced from father to son via the y chromosome. Anthro 2200h: refers to the inheritance, as a unit, of individual genes closely located on a chromosome; an exception to the law of independent assortment.
