Builds the protein DNA that is folded up so that it fits into the nucleus A synonym for a trait A different recipe that makes the same type of food The entire finished meal that is made up of 2 or more proteins: steak, potatoes, salad, and dessert Complete set of genetic instructions for making the entire organism The variable we change in an experiment. The variable we keep the same The building blocks of traits. Gives cells structure, shape, specific processes, and are involved in the expressions of traits. Total number of chromosomes in the cells of humans A physical description or characteristic that an organism can pass on to its offspring. Ex: eye color, hair color, etc
