Gene Codes for
|
Protein
|
|
Proteins are made up of
|
Amino Acids
|
|
3 nucleotides code for
(gac, atg, cat) |
amino acid
|
|
Transcription
|
put information from DNA nucleotides into RNA sequences
|
|
Translation
|
RNA tells ribosomes what to express
|
|
different alleles have different
|
Base Sequences
|
|
Alleles are different versions of
|
Genes
|
|
Ploidy
|
Number of chromosome sets in a cell
|
|
incomplete Dominance
|
Heterozygous show reduced traits on both parts.
EX: red snapdragon + white snapdragon= Rr is pink |
|
co-dominance
|
two dominant traits are expressed equally
ex: AB blood type |
|
Epistatis
|
certain trait is only expressed if a certain gene has a dominant allele.
EX: labs-BBee is yellow because dominant E allele is necessary for pigment to be inserted into the hair, E is "standing upon" |
|
pleiotropy
|
one gene expresses several traits
|
|
polygenic inheritance
|
several genes determine one trait
|
|
Hardy-Weinberg equation
|
P^2+2pq+q^2=1
