Two alleles
How is global warming effected by the amount of cars on the road? Controlled variable?
How is global warming effected by the amount of cars on the road? Independent variable?
Two sets of genes
How is global warming effected by the amount of cars on the road? dependent variable?
Protein
The structure of the gene: size and base pairs it is made out of.
Trait
Allele definition
Two genes
One allele
One gene
Structure (shape) of the 2 or more proteins that the trait is made of
1 set of genes
Heredity
Number of genes each parent passes to their child for each trait
how many cars are on the road
outside temperature
Number of sets of genes that each organism has that codes for the SAME protein
Number of sets of genes that you get from each parent in sexual reproduction
Number of genes for each trait that the offspring (child) has
This determines the function/type of trait (hair color, eye color, heart rate, etc) that is created.
Created by genes in the DNA. Building blocks of traits
Created when 2 or more different structured (shaped) proteins fit together. Used to distinguish species from one another & organisms from within the same species.
How genes are passed down from one generation to the next through sexual and asexual reproduction
Each person has two gene "variant copies" for every trait. Each of these "variant copies" is this term.
This determines the structure (shape) of the protein
how global warming is effected
Number of alleles (gene variant copy) each organism has for a trait
Number of alleles (gene variant copy) you get from each parent
