Coach Schrock s Website: What the state of Texas wants you to know! TEKS 3F: Research and describe the history of biology and contributions of scientists. TEKS 4B: Investigate and explain cellular processes, including the synthesis of new molecules. TEKS 6A: Identify components of DNA, and describe how information for specifying traits of an organism is carried in the DNA. TEKS 6B: Recognize that components that make up the genetic code are common to all organisms. Non-Mendelian Genetics, DNA, Protein Synthesis, and Mutations Unit Guide Page 1

2 TEKS 6C: Explain the purpose and process of transcription and translation using models of DNA and RNA. TEKS 6E: Identify and illustrate changes in DNA and evaluate the significance of these changes. TEKS 6F: Predict possible outcomes of various genetic combinations such as monohybrid crosses, dihybrid crosses and non-mendelian inheritance Listen and Look Heredity = passing of traits from parents to offspring. Genome = all an organism s genetic material. Gene = specific region of DNA that codes for a particular protein. Alleles = any of the alternative forms of a gene that occurs at a specific place on a chromosome. Genotype = collection of all an organism s genetic information that codes for traits. Phenotype = collection of all of an organism s physical characteristics. Dominant = allele that is expressed when two different alleles are present in an organism s genotype. Recessive = allele that is not expressed unless two copies are present in an organism s genotype. Homozygous = characteristic of having two of the same alleles at the same spot on homologous pairs. Heterozygous = characteristic of having two different alleles that appear at the same spot on homologous pairs. Probability = likelihood that a particular event will happen. Punnett Square = model for predicting all possible genotypes resulting from a mating. Monohybrid cross = mating between organisms that involves only one pair of contrasting traits. Dihybrid cross = mating between organisms involving two pairs of contrasting traits. Incomplete dominance = heterozygous phenotype that is a blend of the two homozygous phenotypes. Codominance = heterozygous genotype that equally expresses the traits from both alleles. Polygenic = trait that is produced by two or more genes. Nucleus: organelle composed of double membrane that acts as the storehouse for most of a cell s DNA. DNA: Deoxyribonucleic Acid- molecule that stores genetic information in all organisms. RNA: Ribonucleic Acid-molecule that allows for transmission of genetic information and protein synthesis. Nucleotide: monomer that forms DNA and has a phosphate group, sugar and nitrogen-containing base. Double Helix: model that compares the structure of a DNA molecule, in which two strands wind around one another, to that of a twisted ladder. Replication: process by which DNA is copied. DNA polymerase: enzyme that makes bonds between nucleotides, forming an identical strand of DNA during replication. DNA strand: DNA side Complementary side/strand: either of the two sides that make up a double helix of DNA. Adenine: nitrogenous base found in DNA- matches with Thymine and Uracil. Guanine: nitrogenous base found in DNA- matches with Cytosine. Cytosine: nitrogenous base found in DNA- matches with Guanine. Non-Mendelian Genetics, DNA, Protein Synthesis, and Mutations Unit Guide Page 2

3 Thymine: nitrogenous base found in DNA- matches with Adenine. Uracil: nitrogenous base found in RNA- matches with Adenine Purine: Type of nitrogenous base, has two circular ring structures, A,G match with a pyrimidine. Pyrimidine: type of nitrogenous base, has one circular ring structure, C,T match with a purine. Ribosome: organelle that links amino acids together to form proteins. Transcription: process of copying a nucleotide sequence of DNA to form a complementary strand of mrna. Translation: process by which mrna is decoded and a protein is produced. RNA polymerase: enzyme that catalyzes the synthesis of a complementary strand of RNA from a DNA template. Messenger RNA: form of RNA that carries genetic information from the nucleus to the cytoplasm, where it serves as a template for protein synthesis. Ribosomal RNA: RNA that is in the ribosome and guides the translation of mrna into a protein; also used as a molecular clock. Transfer RNA: form of RNA that brings amino acids to ribosomes during protein synthesis. Codon or triplet codon: sequence of three nucleotides that codes for one amino acid. Anticodon: set of three nucleotides in a trna molecule that binds to a complementary mrna codon during translation. Amino Acid: molecule that makes up proteins, composed of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen and sometimes sulfur. Protein: polymer composed of amino acids linked by peptide bonds; folds into a particular structure depending on bonds between amino acids.
