One gene
Two genes
Heredity
Conclusion (claim)
Two sets of genes
Two alleles
The structure of the gene: size and base pairs it is made out of.
Evidence
Scientific Knowledge
Protein
One allele
Hypothesis
1 set of genes
Non-scientific question definition
Allele definition
Structure (shape) of the 2 or more proteins that the trait is made of
Scientific Question Definition
Trait
Explanation based on experiments for why something is occurring.
Number of genes for each trait that the offspring (child) has
Non-feeling (rational) questions about the natural world and universe
Based on observations and multiple experiments
Number of genes each parent passes to their child for each trait
Number of sets of genes that you get from each parent in sexual reproduction
This determines the structure (shape) of the protein
Each person has two gene "variant copies" for every trait. Each of these "variant copies" is this term.
Number of alleles (gene variant copy) each complex organism has for a trait
Explanation of something that occurs that is testable. Done before you do an experiment.
How genes are passed down from one generation to the next through sexual and asexual reproduction
Created by genes in the DNA. Building blocks of traits
Comes from observations during an experiment
This determines the function/type of trait (hair color, eye color, heart rate, etc) that is created.
Number of alleles (gene variant copy) you get from each parent during sexual reproduction
Created when 2 or more different structured (shaped) proteins fit together. Used to distinguish species from one another & organisms from within the same species.
Number of sets of genes that each organism has that codes for the SAME protein
