Controlled variable??? 3 Structural Traits 4 How is the size of a gene effected by the amount of base pairs it contains? Independent variable??? 5 Proteins with different shapes/structures AND functions 6 Functional Traits 7 Many of the same traits like number of arms, legs, organs, etc. 8 Trait 9 Proteins that are structurally smaller 10 Proteins that are structurally bigger 11 Behavioral traits 12 Structure (shape) of the 2 or more proteins that the trait is made of 13 How is the size of a gene effected by the amount of base pairs it contains? Dependent variable??? 14 Proteins with the same shape/structure AND function 15 Created by genes of the DNA. Building blocks of traits 16 Fewer of the same traits like number of arms, legs organs, etc. Type of organism Genes made of more base pairs will make... Traits that have to do with the shape or look of the parts that an organism is made out of (organ shapes, sizes, eye color, number of limbs, shape of limbs, etc) Size of a gene This determines the function/type of trait (hair color, eye color, heart rate, etc) that is created. Genes made of fewer base pairs will make... Genes made of different bases will make this... Organisms of the same species share... Traits that have to do with how an organism or species acts/what the organism does (sounds, actions, tendencies, etc) Protein This determines the structure (shape) of the protein Created when 2 or more different structured (shaped) proteins fit together. Used to distinguish species from one another & organisms from within the same species. Traits that have to do with how the different parts within the organism work to keep the organism alive (breathing, cellular respiration, photosynthesis, circulatory system, etc) Genes made of the same bases will make this... Number of base pairs Organisms from different species share...
