3.1 Together With 3.2 Work

In the past, nosotros convey non formally gone over these sections, simply I institute that approximately students were at a disadvantage from non going over these concepts.  Please respond the next questions inwards your notebook as well as they volition move checked off on Mon 2/13.

1. This is inwards 3.1. What is a gene?
2. Where are genes located?  Draw a diagram to aid explain.
3. Look at the nautical chart on p. 142 that compares numbers of genes inwards dissimilar species.  Which species has the well-nigh genes?  The least?  How many genes create humans have?
4. Discuss the higher upwards information.  Is it surprising?  Why don't humans convey to a greater extent than genes than other organisms?
5. What are alleles?  Describe the differences betwixt dissimilar alleles.  Where create these differences come upwards from?
6. Do the DBQ on p. 145.
7. Read the department on sickle jail mobile telephone anemia as well as outline the genetic alter that causes sickle jail mobile telephone as well as what it does to the blood cells as well as wellness of people suffering from sickle cell.
8. What is a genome?
9. Describe the carrying out as well as results of the Human Genome Project.
10. Now we're inwards 3.2.  Describe the bacterial chromosome.
11. What is a plasmid as well as where tin it move found?  Are they replicated similar the primary bacterial chromosome?  Explain.
12. Describe the autoradiography technique used to stair out deoxyribonucleic acid molecules.
13. Describe eukaryote chromosomes.
14. What are homologous chromosomes as well as where create they come upwards from?
15. Do the DBQ on p. 153.
16. Look at the nautical chart on p. 154 comparing genome size.  How is this comparing dissimilar from 1 that you lot looked at on p. 142?  Is it showing the same thing?  Are the results similar?
17. What is the deviation betwixt a haploid nucleus as well as a diploid nucleus?  Use humans every bit an example.
18. Explain why dissimilar species convey dissimilar numbers of chromosomes.
19. Do the DBQ on p. 156.
20. What is the deviation betwixt an autosome as well as a sexual activity chromosome?  How many autosomes create humans have?  How many sexual activity chromosomes?
21. Discuss how the sexual activity chromosomes decide sexual activity inwards humans.
22. What is a karyogram?
23. How tin karyograms move used to decide sexual activity as well as diagnose chromosomal disorders inwards humans?
24. Do the DBQ on p. 159.
