Matching Pairs Reproduction and Genetics - FlashcardsOnline version Reproduction and Genetics - Flashcards by Benjamin D Morgan 1 Evidence 2 Gamete 3 How is the size of a protein effected by the amount of base pairs (size of a gene)that code for it? Independent variable? 4 23 pairs (46 total) chromosomes 5 Asexual Reproduction 6 Elaboration/Reasoning 7 Claim 8 Gene 9 23 total (no pairs) chromosomes 10 Asexual & Sexual Reproduction 11 Genetic Variation in the species 12 Chromosome 13 How is the size of a protein effected by the amount of base pairs (size of a gene)that code for it? Controlled variable? 14 Nucleus of Cell 15 Sexual Reproduction 16 Genes 17 How is the size of a protein effected by the amount of base pairs (size of a gene)that code for it? Dependent variable? 18 No genetic Variation in the species A piece of the DNA that codes for making a protein When a new organism is produced from combining the genetic information of two parent organisms. Half of chromosomes are from Mom & half from Dad Asexual reproduction causes... DNA that has been folded up to fit in the nucleus Sex cells: egg cells & sperm cells size of the protein Same type of organism Form that genetic information that is transferred through sexual & asexual reproduction Number of chromosomes in a regular body cell: liver cell, skin cell, heart cell, etc. how many base pairs Explaining what the evidence means Observations, numbers, data collected from an investigation Sexual reproduction causes... Factual answer to a scientific question. The chromosomes (DNA) of the parent are copied exactly and the child is a replica of the parent. Method of transferring genetic information to the offspring from the parent. Child has the same number of chromosomes as the parent. Where chromosomes are found Number of chromosomes in a gamete cell: egg cell or sperm cell
