Greg has which flexibility?
What is low flexibility?
High silk flexibility will always contain which protein molecule? What other protein molecules can be found in high silk flexibility spiders?
What is Protein 2? What is Protein 3?
Protein that helps individuals run faster
What is ACTN3?
How many traits does offspring get from each parent for each feature?
What is one trait from each parent for each feature?
What purpose does a gene serve for protein molecules?
What is instructions?
What is it called when the protein molecules change into something new?
What is mutation?
What are examples of other spider traits protein molecules make up besides silk flexibility?
What is silk stickiness, venom, size, bristles?
What provides the instructions to build protein molecules?
What is genes?
Which eye color trait is dominant?
What is brown?
What is the difference between a feature and a trait? Give an example.
What is a feature is something every organism has while a trait is something specific to a certain organism.
What determines an organism's traits at the molecular scale?
What is protein molecules?
Which proteins are found in spiders with medium silk flexibility?
What is Protein 1 and Protein 2?
How many protein molecules make up our body's clotting factor?
What is thirteen?
Which hair color is produced from a recessive trait?
What is blonde?
Explain the process of how mutations affect the building of protein molecules?
What is when there is a change to the gene version (mutation), the instructions to build the proteins change, causing the protein to be shaped differently?
Besides the structure of protein molecules, what else can determine different traits?
What is how protein molecules connect with other protein molecules?
How many gene copies are there for each feature?
What is two?
Why can a spider not contain only Protein 3 molecules?
What is Protein 3 has no connectors and a spider's protein molecules must have connectors to make a web.
Explain the purpose of this week's hands-on activity?
What is to understand that genes provide the instructions for building proteins and do not do the building themselves?
What is the definition of a mutation?
What is changes to a gene version, which can result in changes to proteins?
If I have a homozygous brown-eyed parent and a homozygous blue-eyed parent, will any kids have blue eyes? Why?
What is every child will have brown eyes because the only trait a child can get from the homozygous brown-eyed parent is the dominant trait.
Of the 3 protein molecules, which combination of these protein molecules will never take place?
What is Protein 1 and Protein 3.
What is another word for protein molecule?
What is allele?
What is the difference between homozygous and heterozygous molecules? What is an example of each?
What is homozygous is the same two copies of protein molecules while heterozygous are two different copies of protein molecules? What is A1A1, A1A2?
What does the function of a protein molecule depend on?
What is its structure and how it interacts with other protein molecules?
