The Actually Final Flashcards
(49 cards)
Genotype
The genetic concentration of an organism, the alleles it carries 
Phenotype
The observable traits are characteristics of an organism resulting from an interaction of genotype in the environment
Allele
Different forms of genes can be dominant or recessive
Homozygous
an organism that has two identical alleles for jeans AA aa
Heterozygous
An organism that has two different alleles for gene Aa
Dominant allele
I know we that expresses it traits even when only one copy is present
Recessive allele
Unable that only expresses it trait when two copies are present
Codominant
Both alleles contribute equally and visible to the organism phenotype
Incomplete dominance
A situation where the heterozygous phenotype is a plant of two alleles
Polygenic inheritance
A type of inheritance where multiple chains contribute to a single phenotype treat
Sex linked traits
Traits that are associated with genes located on the sex chromosome
How genotypes affect phenotype
Deciding the proteins that are synthesize, which intern affect the organism structure and function
EX the presence of a dominant allele for a gene role result in dominant trait being expressed in the phenotype recessive allele only fourth alleles are recessive
Law of segregation
Each organism has two alleles for each gene, which separate during gamete formation or spring, inherits one allele from each parent
Law of independent assortment
Alleles from different traits are inherited independently from one another leading to genetic diversity
Monohybrid cross (Geno and phenotype ratio)
Crossing two heterozygous
Dihybrid cross
Crossing two heterozygous from two traits
Genetic linkage
Genes that are close together on the same chromosome tend to be inherited together.
Independent Assortment
Genes located on different chromosomes segregate independently of each other during gamete formation.
Metabolism
The sum of all chemical reactions occurring within an organism
ATP is the
The primary energy carrier in cells
Catabolic reaction or exergonic reaction
Reactions that breakdown molecules and release energy (EX cellular respiration)
Anabolic reaction or endogenic reaction
Reaction that builds molecules and requires energy (EX protein synthesis, protein synthesis)
ATP consist of
adenine, a ribose (a sugar), and three phosphate groups
ATP cycle involves
The hydrolysis is ATP to ADP+Pi ( exergonic energy released)
The synthesis of ATP from ATP+Pi (endergonic energy is consumed)
