Genetics

Genetics is the study of…  Genes and heredity

What do we inherit from our parents? Hair color, eye color, height

What are genes? Genes are the basic units of heredity genes are what carries
your information and characteristics 

What is your understanding of chromosomes? Chromosomes are
tiny structures inside the cell, chromosomes are made from DNA and protein.
Chromosomes have information inside that acts like a commander telling the cells
how to function 

List down 5 facts about Gregor Mendel

1. The father of science of genetics and a plant biologist, he was also a teacher.
2. Gregor Mendel was a scientist during the 1800s
3. Gregor was a man who studied the inheritance by experiment with the peas at is garden 
4. From experimenting he was able to explain and show the patterns or inheritance
   and he proved any living thing has traits inherited from their parents. After years of

experimenting he published it to the world at 1866

5. He died at the age 61 years old (1822 - 1884)

Which animal are we closely related to with our genetics?

Chimpanzees, we are 90% different with the chimpanzees

How many chromosomes do we have altogether? How many are from our mother and father?

23 from our mother and 23 from our father altogether we have 46 chromosomes.

What are some diseases which can be inherited from genes?

Down syndrome

Alyheimer’s disease

Cystic Fibrosis

Diabetes

Heart disease

Genomics

\Genomics

Fill in the blank words. All the answers are in the text.

All living things on earth, from the tiniest creatures to the tallest of trees, are made of Microscopic parts called Cell.

Inside the cell, membrane cells have smaller parts called Organelles.

Vacuoles are basically Storage tanks that the cell uses to hold water or other materials.

Chloroplasts are found only in plant cells and contain Chlorophyll, the substance that allows photosynthesis to take place.

Answer these questions about the text

What is a cell? Cells are the basic structure they are composed of.

What things have cells in them? Animals, plants and humans

What allows photosynthesis to take place? Chlorophyll

What is photosynthesis? The process which green plant use to make their own food

What are shaped like tiny balls but work like tiny factories? Ribosomes

What is an ER? It’s a transportation network

What happens when the plant does not get enough water? Their vacuole will start to shrink and the plants begins to wilt

What are Organelles? It’s like tiny organs and they each do specific jobs inside the cell

What do cell walls do for plants? The cell walls provide support for the plant to keep growing and to keep it in shape, also the cell walls are stronger and tougher than the membrane

What is the powerhouse of the cell? They take food and turn into energy for the rest of that cells use

Today I learnt about Genomics and the blue texts are my answers
