Genetics
Heredity is the passing of traits from parents to children
Your traits are carried in your genes
Humans have 46 pairs of chromosomes in each cell
No one has the same set of DNA except identical twins
Males have sperm cells and the female have egg cells each have 23 chromosomes
Genes environment and nutrition effects who you are
Dominant genes will show more than recessive genes
Inherited traits are what you are born with but learning behaviors are what you are taught
Mendel observed dominant and recessive traits
Gregor Mendel studied pea plants to learn about Heredity
The Punnett square helps us to predict traits
Mendel studied 30000 plants over 8 years
Mutations are permanent changes to the DNA
Mutations are usually bad
Cancer is caused by mutations
Mutations that are good can lead to evolution
