Proteins with the same shape/structure AND function
How is the size of a gene effected by the amount of base pairs it contains? Controlled variable???
Functional Traits
Proteins with different shapes/structures AND functions
How is the size of a gene effected by the amount of base pairs it contains? Independent variable???
Proteins that are structurally smaller
Trait
Many of the same traits like number of arms, legs, organs, etc.
Structure (shape) of the 2 or more proteins that the trait is made of
Fewer of the same traits like number of arms, legs organs, etc.
Proteins that are structurally bigger
How is the size of a gene effected by the amount of base pairs it contains? Dependent variable???
Structural Traits
Behavioral traits
The structure of the gene: size and base pairs it is made out of.
Created by genes of the DNA. Building blocks of traits
Genes made of fewer base pairs will make...
This determines the structure (shape) of the protein
Created when 2 or more different structured (shaped) proteins fit together. Used to distinguish species from one another & organisms from within the same species.
Genes made of different bases will make this...
This determines the function/type of trait (hair color, eye color, heart rate, etc) that is created.
Organisms from different species share...
Number of base pairs
Size of a gene
Protein
Genes made of more base pairs will make...
Traits that have to do with how the different parts within the organism work to keep the organism alive (breathing, cellular respiration, photosynthesis, circulatory system, etc)
Traits that have to do with how an organism or species acts/what the organism does (sounds, actions, tendencies, etc)
Genes made of the same bases will make this...
Traits that have to do with the shape or look of the parts that an organism is made out of (organ shapes, sizes, eye color, number of limbs, shape of limbs, etc)
Organisms of the same species share...
Type of organism
