I am seen as the father of heredity and
genetics with my experiments on pea plants.
33
Who is Gregor Mendel
44
Mendel did research on this --- the transmission
of characteristics from parent to offspring
55
What is Heredity?
66
Mendel obtained pure parent pea plants by doing
this a form of reproduction with only one parent.
77
Asexual reproduction.
88
Mendels first experiments were crosses that
involved only one type of characteristic. These
type of crosses are know as?
99
What are monohybrid ?

Daily Double
.
Name and describe the 3 types of mutations.
Daily Double
1111
A deletion is when a base is completely left
out. 2. When an extra base is added in this is
called a insertion 3. When the wrong base is
used this is called substitution. This is the
most common mutation.
1212
The two different versions of a gene.
1313
What are alleles?
1414
In a Punnett square a lowercase letter represents
1515
Bonus
A recessive trait
1616
The trait that was not or is not expressed when
a characteristic is present.
1717
What is a recessive trait
1818
the set of alleles that an individual has for a
characteristic.
1919
Bonus
What is genotype
2020
Adenine and guanine are double ringed bases.
These are called
2121
What are purines?
2222
Genotype referred to as being Pure. This occurs
when there are crosses between either two
dominant or two recessive traits
2323
Bonus
What is a homozygous trait
2424
The physical appearance of a characteristic in an
organism.
2525
What is phenotype
2626
Chargaffs rule stated .
2727
Adenine in DNA always equals the amount thymine.
And amount of guanine always equals the amount of
cytosine.
2828
the double helix must unzip and an identical
copy of nitrogen bases must be produced this
process is called
2929
Bonus
DNA Replication
3030
Inside chromosomes lies this genetic information
needed to copy a cell.
3131
Bonus
What is DNA?
3232
These are said to be hybrids. In which the
crosses gives you one dominant and one recessive
allele.
3333
What is a heterozygous trait?
3434
They often prepare pedigrees for families that
show how a trait is passed through several
generations.
3535
What is a geneticist?
3636
What are the 3 parts to to a DNA molecule ?
