Document Summary
Genetic basis of inheritance and biological evolution. Focuses on how evolution works at level of phenotypes, genes and populations. Somatic cells: most cells in the body (except sex cells) Gametes: sex cells (sperm and ovum or egg) Cytoplasm: complex mix of membranes, molecules, and tiny structures called organelles. Nucleus: contains hereditary material, known as chromosomes. Paired rod-shaped structures in cell nucleus containing genes that transmit traits from generation to generation. Deoxyribonucleic acid: nucleic acid used to store genetic information that codes for the synthesis of proteins. Four bases: adenine (a) guanine (g) cytosine (c) and thymine (t) Nasa (2011) reported that meteorites found on. Earth contain nucleobases (such as adenine and guanine) may have formed in outer space. Dictate synthesis of proteins that perform a wide variety of functions in body. Work with structures in cell (ribosomes) that are critical for manufacture of proteins. Transport amino acids to ribosomes for the creation of proteins.
