A physical description or characteristic that an organism can pass on to its offspring. Ex: eye color, hair color, etc Complete set of genetic instructions for making the entire organism Where DNA is stored in Eukaryotic cells The study of genetics and how traits are passed on to the next generation of organisms (kids) The entire finished meal that is made up of 2 or more proteins: steak, potatoes, salad, and dessert A synonym for a trait All the ingredients in an entire meal together: steak, salad, dessert The variable we change in an experiment. A different recipe that makes the same type of food Builds the protein The variable we keep the same DNA that is folded up so that it fits into the nucleus The building blocks of traits. Gives cells structure, shape, specific processes, and are involved in the expressions of traits. Shorter segments of DNA that contain specific instructions for a trait Base pairs that are used to make up the genetic codes or combinations of genes A long molecule that contains the genetic code of each organism and holds instructions for making all the proteins Total number of chromosomes in the cells of humans
