Genetics
Mutations are permanent changes to the DNA
Heredity is the passing of traits from parents to children
Mendel observed dominant and recessive traits
Cancer is caused by mutations
Your traits are carried in your genes
Humans have 23 pairs of chromosome in each cell, which in total is 46
No one has the same set of DNA except for identical twins
Males have sperm cells and females have egg cells both have 23 chromosomes each .
Sometimes the children look different from there parents
Genes, environment, and nutrition affect who you are
Dominant genes will show more than recessive genes
Inherited traits are what you are born with but learn behavior is what you are taught
Gregor Mendel studies pea plants to learn about heredity
The punnet square helps us to predict traits
Mendel studied 30 thousand plants over 8 years
Mutations are usually bad
Mutations that are good can lead to evolution
