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