Document Summary
Compare 3 types of rna (name func location) Take dna and all those things we have learned about genetics and apply it. (3 deers) one is albino making it harder to avoid predators, carries two broken alleles so it can"t make the color brown: relationships between genes and proteins, experimental evidence. Discovered that genes are responsible for phenotypes through enzymes i. ii: mendel"s heredity principles applied to humans! iv. Genotype > proteins> phenotypic: originally no one thought mendel"s ideas had to do with humans. Garrod worked with diseases (black urine a fatal disease: phenotype is heritable characteristics in 1902 was a crazy idea, no one had thought about genetics like that. He though dna was read in gene segments to be converted into rna messages to turn into a protein: dna >transcription> rna >translation> protein. Two main things that work this process (occur in all organisms) vii: transcription- information in dna used to synthesize messenger.
