Heredity is the passing of genetic material from parents to an offspring.
What is heredity?

Behavior is a set of actions taken to respond to the stimuli(type of information that causes reactions).
What is behavior?

DNA is the genetic material of a cell that contains information for many things that an organism must do.
What is DNA?

A pedigree traces the occurrence of a trait through generations of a family.
What is a pedigree?

Genes are DNA segments found in chromosomes that give instructions for creating characteristics.
What are genes?

Animals learn behaviors by experience, observations, and by learning it once they are born or doing something for the first time.
How do animals learn behaviors?

The structure of DNA is a double helix-helix shape with basic building blocks called nucleotides.
What is the structure of DNA?

Punnett squares are graphics used to predict the possible genotypes of an offspring.
What are Punnett squares?
300
Alleles are different versions of genes.
What is are alleles?

The behaviors that help animals reproduce successfully are Courtship and Parenting.
What behaviors help animals reproduce successfully?

The four different nucleotides are adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine. Adenine pairs with thymine and cytosine pairs with guanine.
What are the four different nucleotides? Which types pair up?

Probability is the mathematical chance of an outcome to the total number of outcomes.
What is probability?

Incomplete dominance is an allele in a heterozygous individual that influences the phenotype.
What is incomplete dominance?

Some behaviors that animals have that help them survive during seasonal changes are migration, hibernation, and estivation.
What behaviors help animals survive during seasonal changes?
400
Mutations are changes in number, type, or the order of bases.
What are mutations?

Patterns of inheritance is studied by using tools such as a punnett square.
How are patterns of inheritence studied?
500
Codominance are traits that show both alleles in a heterozygous individual that contributes to the phenotype.
What is codominance?

Social behavior is the set of interactions that occur in the same species.
What is social behavior?

The three types of RNA are messenger, ribosomal, and transfer RNA.
What are the three types of RNA?

Punnett squares also show all allele combinations in an offspring.
What do Punnett squares also show?
