Matching Pairs Matching - Alleles vs GenesOnline version Matching - Alleles vs Genes by Benjamin D Morgan 1 Two sets of genes 2 Two genes 3 How is global warming effected by the amount of cars on the road? Controlled variable? 4 Protein 5 Structure (shape) of the 2 or more proteins that the trait is made of 6 Heredity 7 Two alleles 8 1 set of genes 9 How is global warming effected by the amount of cars on the road? Independent variable? 10 Allele definition 11 One gene 12 The structure of the gene: size and base pairs it is made out of. 13 How is global warming effected by the amount of cars on the road? dependent variable? 14 One allele 15 Trait This determines the function/type of trait (hair color, eye color, heart rate, etc) that is created. Created by genes in the DNA. Building blocks of traits Each person has two gene "variant copies" for every trait. Each of these "variant copies" is this term. Number of sets of genes that each organism has that codes for the SAME protein how global warming is effected How genes are passed down from one generation to the next through sexual and asexual reproduction This determines the structure (shape) of the protein how many cars are on the road Number of alleles (gene variant copy) each organism has for a trait Created when 2 or more different structured (shaped) proteins fit together. Used to distinguish species from one another & organisms from within the same species. outside temperature Number of genes for each trait that the offspring (child) has Number of sets of genes that you get from each parent in sexual reproduction Number of genes each parent passes to their child for each trait Number of alleles (gene variant copy) you get from each parent
