28
Heredity and Genes Heredity is the passing of genetic information from one generation to the next through reproduction. The hereditary information (DNA) is organized in the form of genes located in the chromosomes of each cell.
29
Chromosomes are found in the cell nuclei, and contain the DNA molecules. It is the DNA molecules that carry the genetic information of the cell.
30
A human cell contains many thousands of genes in its nucleus, and each gene carries a separate piece of coded information
31
The traits inherited by an individual can be determined by one pair of genes or by several pairs of genes. A single gene pair can sometimes influence more than one trait.
32
Methods of Reproduction There are two common methods of reproduction: asexual and sexual.
33
Asexual reproduction -- involves one parent or individual (often a single- celled organism) Identical genetic copies are known as clones Offspring are usually identical to the parent all the genetic instructions (genes) come from one individual or parent.
34
Bacteria Binary fission– type of mitosis
35
Yeast, Hydra Budding, unequal cytoplasmic division during mitosis
36
tubers, bulbs, runners, and grafting are types of vegetative propagation. Part of plant grows new plant
37
Bread Mold-- sporulation Starfish/ Planaria– fragmentation/ regeneration(new organism grows from a piece of the organism)
38
Parthenogenesis--- makes diploid eggs that develop into a new organism
39
The division of the nucleus during the M phase of the cell cycle is called ___________________. mitosis Interphase is divided into 3 phases 1.____________ 2.____________ 3.___________ G1—cell growth S –DNA replication G2 – prep for mitosis
40
The 4 phases of Mitosis are: 1.____________ 2._____________ 3._____________ 4._____________ prophase Metaphase anaphase telophase In plant cells a _______________ forms midway of the cell. Cell plate
41
Sexual reproduction-- involves two parents. Each parent produces sex cells. Sperm are the sex cells produced by the male; Egg is the sex cell produced by the female.
42
The offspring that results from sexual reproduction therefore receives half of its genetic information from the female parent (via the egg) and half from the male parent (via the sperm).
43
Chromosome Number All organisms have different numbers of chromosomes. A body cell in an adult fruit fly has 8 chromosomes: 4 from the fruit fly's male parent, and 4 from its female parent.
44
These two sets of chromosomes are A cell that contains both sets of homologous chromosomes is said to be. diploid homologous
45
The of sexually reproducing organisms contain only a single set of chromosomes, and therefore only a single set of genes. These cells are. gametes haploid
46
What happens during the process of meiosis? Meiosis is a process of division in which the number of chromosomes per cell is cut in through the of homologous chromosomes in a diploid cell. reduction half separation
47
Meiosis involves divisions, and. By the end of meiosis II, the diploid cell that entered meiosis has become 4 haploid cells. Two meiosis I meiosis II
48
Meiosis I Cells undergo a round of DNA replication, forming duplicate chromosomes.
49
Each chromosome pairs with its corresponding homologous chromosome to form a tetrad. Also called synapsis There are 4 chromatids in a tetrad.
50
When homologous chromosomes form tetrads in meiosis I, they exchange portions of their chromatids in a process called. crossing-over
51
Crossing-over produces new of alleles. combinations Spindle ______________ attach to the chromosomes. The fibers pull the _________________ chromosomes toward opposite ends of the cell. ____________________ membranes form. The cell ____________________ into two cells. The two cells produced by meiosis I have chromosomes and alleles that are different from each other and from the diploid cell that entered meiosis I. fibers homologous Nuclear separates
52
Meiosis II The two cells produced by meiosis I now enter a _____________ meiotic division. Unlike meiosis I, neither cell goes through chromosome__________________. Each of the cell’s chromosomes has 2 ____________________. second replication chromatids
53
A to B Meiosis I results in two ______________(N) daughter cells, each with half the number of chromosomes as the ________________cell. C The chromosomes line up in the ______________ of cell. D The sister ____________________ separate and move toward ______________ ends of the cell. E Meiosis II results in ______________ haploid (N) daughter cells haploid original center chromatids opposite four
54
Gamete Formation In male animals, meiosis results in four equal-sized gametes called sperm. In many ____________ animals, only one egg results from meiosis. The other three cells, called ___________ bodies, are usually not involved in reproduction. female polar bodies
55
Mitosis results in the production of two genetically identical diploid cells. Meiosis produces four genetically different haploid cells.
56
Mitosis Cells produced by mitosis have the same number of chromosomes as the original cell. Mitosis allows an organism to grow and replace cells. Some organisms reproduce asexually by mitosis.
57
Meiosis Cells produced by meiosis have half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. These cells are genetically different from the diploid cell and from each other. Meiosis is how sexually reproducing organisms produce gametes.
58
When a sperm and egg combine to form a new cell with a complete set of genetic instructions, a unique combination of genes results. The term for this is genetic recombination.
60
The Genetic Code The inherited instructions (genes) that are passed from parent to offspring exist in the form of a chemical code called the genetic code. It is contained in the DNA molecules of all organisms. DNA molecules resemble a flexible, twisted ladder formed from many smaller repeating units
61
Like other large molecules of life, the DNA molecule is made of thousands of smaller sections called subunits. Each subunit has three chemical parts: 1.a sugar 2.a phosphate 3.a base.
62
The bases of a DNA molecule are represented by the letters 1. A 2. G 3. C 4. T
63
The four subunits of DNA molecules are arranged in pairs, each subunit forming one side and half of one rung of the "twisted ladder."
64
Watson and Crick's model of DNA was a double helix, in which two strands were wound around each other.
65
Watson and Crick discovered that hydrogen bonds can form only between certain base pairs adenine and thymine guanine and cytosine. This principle is called base pairing.
