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