Greatest Discoveries in Genetics (with Bill Nye) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vIrrtM47Wio
“Father of Genetics” -- Worked with p___________ plants.
Mendel's First Law of Genetics (Law of Segregation):
A gene that can exist in more than 1 form (e.g. a gene for round or w_______________________ peas) is
called an a________________________.
When gametes are produced (by meiosis) in the parent, allele pairs separate leaving each g_______________
with one allele for each trait.
At fertilization, organisms inherit _____ alleles for each trait – 1 from each p__________________.
When the two alleles of a pair are different, one is d____________________________ and the other is
r________________________
DNA is a Double Helix - deoxy _______________________________________
Made up of 4 base pairs: g_________________________, a___________________,
t___________________________, c_________________________________
For each genotype, indicate whether it is heterozygous (HE) or homozygous (HO)

Vocabulary:
Biological diversity: the presence of many different types of organisms in an ecosystem
Ecosystem: all the living and nonliving things in an area that interact with each other
Blood: tissue that brings oxygen and nutrients to the cells of the body and removes wastes from the cells of
the body
Blood vessels: tubes in the body through which blood flows
Red blood cells: a blood cell that carries oxygen to other cells in the body
Warm blooded: describes an organism that maintains a fairly constant body temperature
Blood Types:
Review all notes taken in class
What is Hemophilia and give me information about its History.
Marine Organims and their Home:
How does a fish breath
In what water source are fish always capable to being eaten?
Notes taken on slideshow
For Mitosis Session 7 please review the Mitosis slideshow, notes taken in class, Mitosis hand jive, Mitosis
color sheets and also the questions we covered on DNA.
Reproduction of a flower, sexual reproduction and asexual reproduction are the three types of
reproduction we learned about and discussed. Be able to describe and answer questions from all 3.
Essential Questions:
How does our skeletal system help us move?
How do bones, ligaments, and cartilage work together?
What are bones made of?
In addition to allowing movement, what else does our skeletal system help us do?
We studied the location of muscles and
types. These are the muscles, their
function and their locations I want you to
focus on for the Final
Function and location of
major organ systems
