ethnicity • relating to or characteristic of a human group having racial, religious, linguistic, and certain other traits in common • DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) • encodes information through the order of sequence of nucleotides along each strand • gene • segment of DNA molecules phenotype • "the form that is shown"; it is the outward, physical appearance of a particular trait • genotype • The genetic makeup of an organism as distinguished from its physical characteristics. dominant • the allele that expresses itself at the expense of an alternate allele; the phenotype that is expressed in the F1 generation from the cross of two pure lines • recessive • an allele whose expression is suppressed in the presence of a dominant allele; the phenotype that disappears in the F1 generation from the cross of two pure lines and reappears in the F2 generation • dot plots • a statistical chart consisting of group of data points plotted on a simple scale. histograms • A graph using rectangle bases on horizontal axis that have heights corresponding to the measurements. • box plots • a graphic representation of a distribution by a rectangle, the ends of which mark the maximum and minimum values, and in which the median and first and third quartiles are marked by lines parallel to the ends. correlation • the degree to which two or more attributes or measurements on the same group of elements show a tendency to vary together. • causation • anything that produces an effect appropriate quantities • chain reaction • one nuclear reaction causes an average of one or more nuclear reactions. • nucleus • Positively charged mass in center of atom, contains neutrons and protons. nuclear fission • nuclear reaction in which a nucleus splits into two smaller parts often creating a large output of energy. • nuclear fusion • nuclear reaction in which two or more atomic nuclei join together or “fuse” to create one heavier nuclei. • radiation • the complete process in which energy is emitted by one body, through a medium or space, and absorbed by another body. collateral damage • destruction to objects that are not intended in the initial target. • unconditional surrender • No guarantees to the party who is admitting defeat • civil rights • rights to personal liberty established by the 13th and 14th Amendments to the U.S. constitution and certain Congressional acts, especially as applied to an individual or a minority group. • sit-in • a form of demonstration used by African Americans to protest discrimination in which the protesters sit down in a segregated business and refuse to leave until they are served affirmative action • a policy that seeks to correct the effects of past discrimination by favoring the groups who were previously disadvantaged • civil disobedience • the citizens stopped following the segregation laws and protested for equal rights integration • Process of ending segregation by allowing all races to participate in all activities • segregation • the practice or policy of creating separate facilities within the same society for the use of a minority group • boycott • To stop buying something to show a protest proton • a positively charged particle with mass similar to a neutron found in the nucleus of an atom neutron • particle having no charge with a mass similar to a proton found in the nucleus of an atom • electron • a negatively charged particle with little mass found in an orbit around the nucleus • electron cloud • the group of electrons revolving around the nucleus of an atom atomic number • the number of positive charges or protons in the nucleus of an atom of a given element, and therefore also the number of electrons • atomic mass • The mass of a given atom or molecule, expressed in atomic mass units. mass number • The total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom. • devastation • to destroy or leave in ruins occupation • control of a country by a foreign military power annex • an addition that extends a main building • anti-Semitism • discrimination or prejudice against the Jewish people • edict • command by an authority which oppresses a certain group of people • persecution • to oppress, harass, or treat unfairly due to religion, race, or a certain belief • Typhus • an infectious disease, usually transmitted by lice or fleas, that causes fever, skin rash, and severe headaches internment camp • a prison like compound used for prisoners of war • appeasement • practice of giving in to an aggressor nation's demands in order to keep peace genocide • Systematic killing of a racial or cultural group • liberators • Soldiers who freed the prisoners of internment camps
