Everything

Question 1

Definition of Discrete Variation

Answer 1

1. Discrete variation data is discovered by looking.
2. Discrete Variation puts data/species into 2+ groups.
3. Data should be shown in a bar chart

Question 2

Definition of Continuous Variation

Answer 2

1.Continuous Variation has a range of differences from one extreme then another
2. The data has to be measured
3. The data is presented as a histogram
4. histogram should look like a normal distribution curve

Question 3

What are chromosomes

Answer 3

Inside the nucleus’s are chromosomes. Chromosomes as long chunks/strands of DNA

Question 4

Cells contain how many chromosomes?

Answer 4

46. 23 from your mum and 23 from your dad

Question 5

What are the four bases?

Answer 5

A , T , C and G

Question 6

Which bases pair with each-other?

Answer 6

A pairs with T
C pairs with G
because of there certain shapes

Question 7

what is the exterior laces/walls in the DNA shape called and what are they made of?

Answer 7

They are called uprights and made from sugar and phosphate

Question 8

What does DNA stand for ( spell it too)

Answer 8

DEOXYRIBONUCLEIC ACD

Question 9

What is a codon

Answer 9

A codon is a sequence of three bases in DNA

Question 10

What happens if the sequence of bases ( a codon) changes

Answer 10

The the codon will produce different amino acid to make different protein

Question 11

What does a codon produce

Answer 11

A codon produces amino acid then the amino acid makes protein

Question 12

What is a genetic disorder

Answer 12

A genetic disorder is a disease caused by a faulty in someones genes

Question 13

what causes a genetic disorder

Answer 13

-Malfunctions in the DNA
-Missing/Extra Chromosomes

Question 14

What is a mutation

Answer 14

A mutation is a change in a persons DNA sequence

Question 15

What is Gene Therapy

Answer 15

Gene Therapy is the introduction of ‘normal’ genes into the cells of a human insted of their missing/ defective genes to correct genetic disorders

Question 16

how is genetic therapy inserted

Answer 16

Genetic therapy can be when you are prescribed drugs then a vector carries the normal genes down to the into the cells

Question 17

What is Pharmacogenetics

Answer 17

Pharmacogentics is the medication that is prescribed to you based on your genetic profile of what you would benefit from

Question 18

what is DNA profiling

Answer 18

the process where a specific DNA pattern, called a profile, is obtained from DNA or sample of bodily tissue

Question 19

When are five places DNA profiling can be used

Answer 19

1. Forensic Science
2. Paternity (Parent) testing
3. Food Fraud
4. identification of disease
5. ancestry

Question 20

Diffrences between Continuous and discrete variation

Answer 20

One you look to tell data other you have to measure it
One is shown as a histogram
One is shown as a bar chart
And one sets data in 2+ groups

Question 21

What does PGD stand for

Answer 21

Pre- Implantation genetic diagnosis

Question 22

What does IVF stand for

Answer 22

In- vitro fertilization

Question 23

Answer 23

Liger

Question 24

A donkey + Horse makes a?

Answer 24

Mule

Answer 25

In fertile / sterile

Question 26

Zebra + shetland pony

Answer 26

Zebrony

Question 27

Dolphin + false killer whale makes a?

Answer 27

Wholphin

Question 28

what is variation

Answer 28

Variation is the DNA that separates everyone so our DNAS are not identical

Question 29

what does the nucleas contain?

Answer 29

The nucleas contains all of our genetic material

Question 30

the DNA shape can be described as?

Answer 30

as a double helix?

Question 31

what are genes

Answer 31

Genes are sections/chunks of DNA which code our protein

Question 32

What are designer babies

Answer 32

A designer baby is a
human embryo which has been genetically
modified, usually following guidelines set by the
parent or scientist, to produce desirable traits.

Question 33

what can we do with designer babies

Answer 33

we can tamper with any genetic disorders and choose the sex

Question 34

How are designer babies made

Answer 34

IVF makes embryos then PGD helps us examine the embryos then once chosen they will be inserted into the woman.

Question 35

why do people use pharmocogenetics

Answer 35

because they will be able to check ahead of time if a medicine would benefit you or cause serious side effects
