Document Summary
Pink flowers from a cross of red flowers and white flowers but cannot be true for humans and sex, can only be male or female(trait) Today called genes: the portion of the dna molecule that codes for a specific protein. *humans can produce atleast 100,000 different proteins the genetic code is made up of a sequence of bases (family of chemicals) that are part of a long chain, Dna: the molecule that carries the genetic code. The strands of dna are wrapped around a series of proteins that make up, chromosomes: a strand of dna in the nucleus of cells. Four bases only bond like this: a-t, t-a or c-g or g-c pairs. * the pairing allows the dna molecule to make copies of itself during cell division. Protein synthesis: the process by which the genetic code puts together proteins in the cell. Mrna: the molecule that carries the genetic code out of the nucleus for translation into proteins.
