trait, a characteristic of an organism, a way to describe it's features like eye color, height and round seed pods, phenotype, expression of the genes; what you see; blue eyes, amino acids, building blocks of proteins, ribosomes, found in the cytoplasm; the organelle that takes RNA and makes proteins, homozygous, the 2 letters are the same for a given trait (aa//TT//AA//tt), heterozygous, the 2 letters are different for a given trait (Aa//Tt//Ab), cytoplasm, the "blood" of the cell, mutations, random changes to DNA due to pollution, radiation or copying errors, interdependence, relying on each other, every part is important, RNA , half copy of the DNA that shows the ribosomes how to make the proteins, 3 system questions , 1) what are the parts? 2)What do the systems do? 3) What larger system is it a part of? , biodiversity, the great diversity of life that is on the planet, chloroplast, where photosynthesis takes place in a plant cell; ONLY plants, DNA, material that directs heredity in a cell. directs the cell how to build proteins, proteins, compounds forming structural tissues (like muscles) that are essential for all life. Also forms enzymes and antibodies, heredity, the passing on of traits from one generation to the next, dominant trait, the trait you will see with the capital letter, organs, different tissues work together to form organs; example: lung, gallbladder, heart, organism, organ systems working together to form an independent living thing. ferns, slugs, and humans, body systems, 2 or more organs that work together for a similar function; respiratory, digestive, and nervous system, cells, the basic unit of life for most living things. A system of organelles working together; skin cells and nerve cells , recessive trait, little letter, smaller chance of getting it , punnet square, a tool used to predict heredity using boxes and letters, nucleus, organelle in cell that contains the DNA, genotype, the genes in your cells "the letters" , system, different parts that work together to form a whole, organelle, "organs" of the cell; make up a cell, ecosystem, organisms and non-living things that work together and depend on each other in a place. (forest/pond) , tissue, a community of cells working together that form tissue, recombination, DNA changes from generation to the next due to mixing of genes--2 parents.
