B6- DNA and the genome, Evolution, Genetic engineering, Classification Flashcards
3-domain system and what it involved
- Used evidence for chemical analysis
- It involved: Eukaryotes, Bacteria, Archaea(primitive Bacteria)
who came up with first classification system and what was it
- Carl Linnaeus
- Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species(King Phillip Came Over For Green Soup)
binomial name
first name-genus
second-species
what was Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution?
- Mutation causes a genetic variation
- This gives organism an advantage
- Likely to survive and reproduce passing on gene
- Causing a change in species
What is genetic enginerring
Transfer of gene for a desired characteristics from 1 organism to another
How to do GE
- Find desired gene and cut out using enzymes
- Place in vector(bacteria or plasmid)
- Has to be inserted at an early stage of development
Uses of GE
- Increase yield
- More profit
- More food of animals
What is a DNA and where can it be found
DNA is a chemical that makes up all the genetic info in a cell
-Can be found in nucleus of every cell
What does DNA carry
Genetic info to order amino acids to join protein
What are genes
Small sections of DNA
What is a genome
Entire set of genetic material of an organism
