Each gene codes for a particular sequence of amino acids
To make a specific protein
DNA is in chromsomes
Polymer made from 2 strands
Double helix
Genome

Human genome has been studied and could impact future medical pactise
Gamete
- sex cell
Chromosome
- DNA molecule in cell
Gene
- sequence of DNA on a chromosome
Allele
- one possible form on gene
Dominant Allele
- dominant variation of gene
Homozygous
- individual who carries 2 copies of the same allele
Recessive Allele
- submissive variation of gene
Heterozygous
- individual who carries 2
different
copes of allele
Phenotype
- physical expression of a gene
Genotype
