Biology 1001A Lecture Notes - Lecture 3: Gamete, Centromere, Chloroplast
Document Summary
Term test #1: testable material= outcomes of cycle #1 and #2. Friday, october 2, 2015 (7-9 pm), multiple choice, individual and collaborative. Every lecture in this course - about evolution (ask: how does what haf e said relate back to evolution?) In order for evolution, you need variability that is coded in genetic material (genetic material= dna copied by mitosis, changes= variability) Dna has been passed onto offspring for 4 billion years (ancestors branch back to common ancestor) Note: human genome - likely referring to nuclear genome. **likely that life began on earth with circular chromosomes, got broken up to become linear. N represents one copy of all organism"s nuclear chromosomes (i. e. one set of chrom) C represents the amount of dna in one set of organism"s nuclear chromosomes (humans: 1n = 23 chromosomes= gametes that are passed to children = 1c)
