Life Science Final Review

Any information I find awesomely valuable from the videos

Greatest Discoveries in Genetics (with Bill Nye) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vIrrtM47Wio

“Father of Genetics” -- Worked with p___________ plants.

Mendel's First Law of Genetics (Law of Segregation):

A gene that can exist in more than 1 form (e.g. a gene for round or w_______________________ peas) is called an a________________________.

When gametes are produced (by meiosis) in the parent, allele pairs separate leaving each g_______________ with one allele for each trait.

At fertilization, organisms inherit _____ alleles for each trait – 1 from each p__________________.

When the two alleles of a pair are different, one is d____________________________ and the other is r________________________

DNA is a Double Helix - deoxy _______________________________________

Made up of 4 base pairs: g_________________________, a___________________, t___________________________, c_________________________________

For each genotype, indicate whether it is heterozygous (HE) or homozygous (HO)

51. For each phenotype, list the genotypes. (Remember to use the letter of the dominant trait)

Straight hair is dominant to curly.

____________ straight

Pointed heads are dominant to round heads.

____________ pointed

Review the Biology Vocabulary List with the 25 starred

Who’s your mama and whose your daddy?” Name the guinea pig parents for the following crosses using the

dominance and recessive relationships below:

o Short hair (S) dominant over long hair o Black (B) dominant over white hair o Wacky hair (W) dominant over smooth hair

55. Homozygous short, heterozygous black x heterozygous short, heterozygous black

___________________________ x __________________________

56. Homozygous long, heterozygous black x homozygous short, homozygous white

______________________________ x ____________________________

57. Homozygous smooth, homozygous white x heterozygous wacky, heterozygous black

________________________________ x ____________________________

58. Homozygous smooth, heterozygous black x heterozygous wacky, heterozygous black

_________________________________ x _____________________________

59. Homozygous long, homozygous white x heterozygous short, homozygous black

Vocabulary:

Biological diversity: the presence of many different types of organisms in an ecosystem

Ecosystem: all the living and nonliving things in an area that interact with each other

Blood: tissue that brings oxygen and nutrients to the cells of the body and removes wastes from the cells of

the body

Blood vessels: tubes in the body through which blood flows

Red blood cells: a blood cell that carries oxygen to other cells in the body

Warm blooded: describes an organism that maintains a fairly constant body temperature

Blood Types:

Review all notes taken in class

What is Hemophilia and give me information about its History.

Marine Organims and their Home:

How does a fish breath

In what water source are fish always capable to being eaten?

Notes taken on slideshow

For Mitosis Session 7 please review the Mitosis slideshow, notes taken in class, Mitosis hand jive, Mitosis

color sheets and also the questions we covered on DNA.

Reproduction of a flower, sexual reproduction and asexual reproduction are the three types of

reproduction we learned about and discussed. Be able to describe and answer questions from all 3.

Essential Questions:

How does our skeletal system help us move?

How do bones, ligaments, and cartilage work together?

What are bones made of?

In addition to allowing movement, what else does our skeletal system help us do?

We studied the location of muscles and

types. These are the muscles, their

function and their locations I want you to

focus on for the Final

Function and location of

major organ systems
