Genetics

Question 1

Gregor Mendel’s pea plant experiment

Answer 1

Hé contrôles their fertilization by transferring pollen between the two colours of peas(cross pollinate) the 3 laws

Question 2

State the law of dominance

Answer 2

Some traits are more dominant, when two versions of a trait are present the only the dominant trait will show

Question 3

State the law of segregation

Answer 3

All living things have two versions of each gene, when making gametes the two versions separate into different gametes

Question 4

State the law of indépendant assortment

Answer 4

When making gametes genes for traits, different traits act indépendant to each other

Question 5

How to use punnet squares to predict possibilities of phenotypes and genotypes of offsprings

Answer 5

Know the genotypes of the mother and father put into the sections of a divided square and put the creations in each box

Question 6

Incomplete dominance Vs codominance

Answer 6

Incomplete dominance is when the alleles from the parents mix together and create something new but co dominance is when they are both there and present but not mixed and equally

Question 7

How are the differences between the X and Y chromosomes responsible for sex-linked traits

Answer 7

Because they do not have the same structure so the X can carry more genes and so XY is missing some genes

Question 8

How to demonstrate the hereditary of sex linked traits such as colourblind

Answer 8

XX have to inherit 2 recessive alleles for sec linked traits but XY only have to inherit 1

Question 9

How to use a pedigree chart to determine stuff

Answer 9

Square =male circle =female shaded means had the trait

Question 10

DNA

Answer 10

Deoxyribo Nucleic Acid
Tell’s amino acids how to build into the perfect protein shape

Question 11

Amino Acid

Answer 11

Tiny chemicals that are the building blocks for life 20 different types

Question 12

Protein

Answer 12

They need to be formed into the perfect shape

Question 13

RNA

Answer 13

A chemical that helps get the DNA information from the nucleus to the cytoplasm

Question 14

Gametes

Answer 14

Sperm+Egg

Question 15

Génotype

Answer 15

2 alleles that make up the phenotypes

Question 16

Phénotype

Answer 16

Thé physical trait that results from the genotype

Question 17

Gene

Answer 17

A section of DNA that controls one trait

Question 18

Allele

Answer 18

A specific version of a particular gene

Question 19

Homozygous

Answer 19

A génotype that had the same allele from both parents

Question 20

Heterozygous

Answer 20

A génotype that has different alleles from each parent

Question 21

Homologous

Answer 21

Something that have the same structure (X, X)

Question 22

Carrier

Answer 22

When someone has one of the alleles for the trait but doesn’t have the trait
