Gamete
Evidence
How is the size of a protein effected by the amount of base pairs (size of a gene)that code for it? Independent variable?
Asexual Reproduction
Genetic Variation in the species
How is the size of a protein effected by the amount of base pairs (size of a gene)that code for it? Controlled variable?
23 pairs (46 total) chromosomes
Gene
Asexual & Sexual Reproduction
23 total (no pairs) chromosomes
Sexual Reproduction

Claim
Nucleus of Cell
Genes
How is the size of a protein effected by the amount of base pairs (size of a gene)that code for it? Dependent variable?
No genetic Variation in the species
Elaboration/Reasoning
Form that genetic information that is transferred through sexual & asexual reproduction
Factual answer to a scientific question.
The chromosomes (DNA) of the parent are copied exactly and the child is a replica of the parent.
Sex cells: egg cells & sperm cells
Where chromosomes are found
When a new organism is produced from combining the genetic information of two parent organisms. Half of chromosomes are from Mom & half from Dad
Same type of organism
Method of transferring genetic information to the offspring from the parent. Child has the same number of chromosomes as the parent.
Observations, numbers, data collected from an investigation
A piece of the DNA that codes for making a protein
Explaining what the evidence means
Number of chromosomes in a gamete cell: egg cell or sperm cell
how many base pairs
Number of chromosomes in a regular body cell: liver cell, skin cell, heart cell, etc.
size of the protein
Asexual reproduction causes...
DNA that has been folded up to fit in the nucleus
Sexual reproduction causes...
