Question 15

What are chromosomes comprised of?

Answer 15

a DNA molecule that is coiled up tightly around special packaging proteins

Question 16

This diagram shows the complete chromosome set in. a body cell

Answer 16

Karyotype

Question 17

This is where we can find the chromosomes

Answer 17

Nucleus

Question 18

This is the place of our sex cells in a Karyotype

Answer 18

The 23rd pair

Question 19

Full name of the DNA

Answer 19

Deoxyribonucleic Acid

Question 20

What is the purpose of a base sequence?

Answer 20

They ENCODE the genetic instructions (genes) for the organism

Question 21

Each ____ carries the code (3 letters) for a specific amino acid

Answer 21

Triplet

Question 22

These are alternative forms of a gene. In other words, they are different versions of the same gene. (Code

Answer 22

Alleles

Question 23

Code for the same general characteristic (e.g. same eye color), but different versions of that characteristic (e.g. brown, blue, green).

Answer 23

Alleles

Question 24

They are responsible for the difference in traits (Variation) between individuals

Answer 24

Alleles

Question 25

What is the difference between a gene and allele?

Answer 25

Genes are sections of DNA that code for a particular protein (eye color gene). On the other hand, alleles are alternative forms of a gene. They are different versions of the same gene. (Hair color - brown). This the primary cause of genetic variation among individuals

Question 26

If your parents does not have the similar allele, you get 2 different alleles

Answer 26

some extra info

Question 27

The specific site where a particular gene can be found

Answer 27

Locus

Question 28

What is the difference between the DNA and gene

Answer 28

The DNA contains the genetic code for the production of protein (blueprint). This genetic code is called a gene. Therefore, a gene is a section of DNA (particular trait)
