Reproduction/Heredity
Both alleles in a gene pair are the same (both dominant or both recessive)
What is homozygous?
transfer or movement of electricity or another fluid through a conductor
What is conduction?
a scientific investigation conducted to test the hypothesis or answer a research question.
What is an experiment?
a push or pull between two objects
What is force?
stored energy that an object has due to its position or state. It is the force or power of an object as a result of its position in an electric, magnetic, or gravitational field.
what is potential energy?
The alleles in a gene pair are different (one is dominant & the other is recessive)
What is heterozygous?
transfer of heat by the movement by the heated parts of a liquid or gas
What is convection?
a proposed explanation or prediction based on limited evidence. It is tested through experimentation to determine its validity.
What is an hypothesis?
a region around an object that can attract or repel other objects in its area.
what is a field?
modification of the characteristics of an organism by making changes to its genetic material.
what is genetic engineering?
Physical appearance of a trait
What is genotype?
power or force an object has because of its motion
What is kinetic energy?
the variable that is deliberately changed or manipulated by the researcher in an experiment.
What is an independent variable?
an object or material that generates a magnetic field
What is a magnet?
structure located in the nucleus of a cell made of DNA. It contains the genetic information needed to carry out cell functions and make new cells.
what is a chromosome?
The set of genes that make up a trait (Ee or AO)
What is genotype?
This is a form of electromagnetic radiation. __________ provides the energy for photosynthesis.
What is light energy?
the variable that is measured or observed in an experiment
What is the dependent variable?
a field that exerts a force on magnets or on certain metals like iron, nickel, and cobalt.
what is a magnetic field?
the act of gathering information or data through careful and systematic attention to detail.
what are observations?
The scientific study of heredity
What is genetics?
This is the change of energy from one form to another
What is energy transformation?
What are the control variables?
the opposite points on a magnet where the magnetic field lines converge.
What are magnetic poles?
an instrument that contains a magnetized needle that points to magnetic north.
what is a compass?
