Genetics
Breaks down food in a cells to make energy also known as "The powerhouse of a cell"
Mitochondria
What are genotypes
Did you not type is a genetic blueprint that together with environmental influences determines a physical and functional traits of an organism
Natural selection, Artificial selection
Natural selection:Nature selects for traits that enhance survival and reproduction
Artificial selection: Humans select desirable traits
Artificial selection
Also known as selective breeding it is the process by which humans breed plants and animals for particular genetic traits
What is the law of superpositions
It is a fundamental principle and geology and archeology that helps scientists understand their relative ages of rock layers in the fossils within them
What is mitosis
Mitosis is the process where a cell divides into two identical daughter cells
What are phenotypes
Penal types are the physical manifestations of an organism's genotype influenced by genetic and environmental factors
Migration, Mutation
Migration: Movement of organisms from one place to another introducing new genes to populations
Mutation: Changes in the DNA sequence introducing new genetic variations
What is cologning
Colonial is the process of creating genetically identical copies of a biological entity
What is a index fossil
It is a fossil that is used by geologists and paleontologists to identify and date the rock layers in which it is found
What is Meiosis
type of cell division that reduces the number of chromosomes in the parent cell by half
Punnett Square
If you cross two heterozygous tall pea plants (Tt) the punnett square predicts that 75% of the offspring will be tall and 25% will be short
Genetic drift
Genetic drift is the random fluctuation of allele frequencies within a population which can lead to significant genetic changes over time particularly in small populations
What is GMO
Genetically modified organism ( an organism whose genetic material has been altered using genetic engineering techniques)
Absolute age of rocks and fossils
The absolute age of fraction fossils refers to the actual age in years since the rock or fossils formed
the difference between plant and animal cells
Cell wall, chloroplast, vacuoles, shape, lysosomes, centrioles
Homozygous, heterozygous
Homozygous: Two identical alleles (TT or tt)
Heterozygous: Two different alleles (Tt)
Evolve
Evolution is a process by which species of organisms change over time through variations in their genetic makeup
Advantages, Disadvantages in Artificial selection
Advantages: enhanced desired traits, increase productivity, disease resistance, economic benefits, adaptation to environments
Disadvantages: reduce genetic diversity, ethical concerns, unintended Consequences, dependency on human intervention, long-term sustainability
What is an intrusion
WHen Magma from beneath earth surface rises into pre-existing rock formations and solidifies
Types of cells mitosis and meiosis occur in
Mitosis occurs in body cells for growth and repair.
Meiosis occurs in germ cells to produce gametes for sexual reproduction
Dominant, recessive
Dominant Allele: Expresses the trait if at least one copy is present (T)
Recessive: Expresses the trait only if two copies are present (t)
Structural, behavioral adaptations
Behavioral: Actions or behaviors that organisms engage in to survive (Migration, Hibernation, Mating rituals)
Structural: Physical features of an organism that enhance its survival (Camouflage, mimicry, and body parts)
What is gene therapy
Chain therapy is a medical technique that involves modifying or manipulating genes within an individual cells to treat or prevent diseases
What is an extrusion
Extragen and geology refers to the process where molten rock from beneath Earth's surface reps onto the surface through volcanic activity in solidifies
