23. 3. Clones are genetically identical organisms Plants: natural cloning by asexual reproduction Advantages of asexual reproduction to the plant: - many new plants very quickly. - no need to produce flowers or gametes saving energy. - no risk of failure to pollinate or fertilise.

24. 3. Clones are genetically identical organisms Animals: natural cloning by asexual reproduction Simple animals like hydra have unspecialised cells - These cells can become any type of cell. - These cells can also grow a whole new hydra - Like plants; hydra keep these unspecialised cells for life

XX Yes the poems are rubbish, so find your own way to remember XX / XY because it’s easy marks Males are XY Females are XX Boys are useless Boys must cry, Girls are the bosses. Boys X and Y Girls two big crosses. XX

32. During fertilisation the ______ chromosomes in the sperm combine with the ______ chromosomes in the egg to form 23 ________ of chromosomes. Each chromosome in a pair has come from a __________ parent. This means there may be different versions of the genes – called __________. Because children get their alleles from both parents they tend to ________ both parents but never look ___________ the same as either one. different pairs resemble alleles exactly 23 12. What is an allele? 23 pairs different alleles resemble exactly

33. Genetic Cross Diagram >>>>>>>> A capital letter codes for the dominant allele (B) A small case letter codes for the recessive allele (b) In this example both the mother and the father are Bb They both have brown eyes The allele for blue eyes is b and is recessive What’s the possibility of them having a blue-eyed child? BbBb B bbbBb BbBB 12. What is an allele?

36. 13. Explain briefly what is meant by ‘an ethical question.’ 14. A genetic test for cystic fibrosis turns out to be a ‘false negative.’ What does this mean ? 15. What is the method for choosing a healthy embryo called? One for which there is no definitive right or wrong. A difficult choice. The test result said the embryo was clear of cystic fibrosis and therefore ‘negative.’ But the result was wrong and the child was born with cystic fibrosis. Genetic tests are not completely reliable. embryo selection (pre-implantation genetic diagnosis)

37. 16. 16. Is the allele for cystic fibrosis dominant or recessive? 17.Define asexual reproduction. 18. Write down one viewpoint in support of embryo selection. Recessive. Cystic fibrosis can only be passed on when two recessive alleles are present. When an organism has offspring without a mate. The offspring have just one parent. Parents can choose between embryo’s. (If an embryo is identified as having Huntingdon’s or cystic fibrosis they can choose a different one).

38. 14. A genetic test for cystic fibrosis turns out to be a ‘false negative.’ What does this mean ? This question is a genetic testing one: Fetus has the disorder Fetus does not have the disorder Fetus has the disorder Fetus does not have the disorder Fetus has the disorder Reality Test result False negative False positive True negative True positive Outcome Genetic testing is approximately 90% accurate

39. 19.Write down one viewpoint that does not support embryo selection. 20.How does gene therapy work? 21.What is genetic modification? It is the process of replacing faulty alleles with healthy ones. Altering the characteristics of an organism by introducing the genes of another organism into it’s DNA. a.It’s wrong to create one person to help another or b.It’s a step towards ‘designer babies.’ Nature should be allowed to take it’s natural course or c.They could might think about producing babies as organ donors.

40. 20. How does gene therapy work?

42. 22.What is Huntingdon’s Disorder? 23.What are chromosomes? 24.What is cystic fibrosis? An inherited disease of the nervous system. Threads of genes found in the nucleus of a cell. A genetic inherited disease caused by recessive alleles that affects many organs particularly the lungs and digestive system.
