Matching Pairs Flashcards - Alleles vs GenesOnline version Flashcards - Alleles vs Genes by Benjamin D Morgan 1 The structure of the gene: size and base pairs it is made out of. 2 Hypothesis 3 Protein 4 Heredity 5 One gene 6 Allele definition 7 Structure (shape) of the 2 or more proteins that the trait is made of 8 Trait 9 Two genes 10 Evidence 11 Scientific Question Definition 12 1 set of genes 13 Scientific Knowledge 14 Two alleles 15 Conclusion (claim) 16 Non-scientific question definition 17 Two sets of genes 18 One allele Questions that result in people sharing feelings, opinions, beliefs, or values Each person has two gene "variant copies" for every trait. Each of these "variant copies" is this term. Number of sets of genes that you get from each parent in sexual reproduction This determines the structure (shape) of the protein Non-feeling (rational) questions about the natural world and universe Number of alleles (gene variant copy) each complex organism has for a trait Explanation based on experiments for why something is occurring. Number of genes for each trait that the offspring (child) has Number of genes each parent passes to their child for each trait Based on observations and multiple experiments This determines the function/type of trait (hair color, eye color, heart rate, etc) that is created. Comes from observations during an experiment Created when 2 or more different structured (shaped) proteins fit together. Used to distinguish species from one another & organisms from within the same species. How genes are passed down from one generation to the next through sexual and asexual reproduction Number of sets of genes that each organism has that codes for the SAME protein Number of alleles (gene variant copy) you get from each parent during sexual reproduction Created by genes in the DNA. Building blocks of traits Explanation of something that occurs that is testable. Done before you do an experiment.
