Chromosome : Found in the nucleus of most living cells, and carries genetic information in the form of genes in the nuclei
Gene : determine some characteristic of the offspring which is passed from parent to their offspring
Gametes : a mature haploid male or female germ cell which is able to unite with another of the opposite sex in sexual reproduction to form a zygote
Fertilisation : The action to produce offspring by female and/or male sex cells.
Inheritance : Something passed down from parents to offspring is to have inhe______.
Ribosomes : a minute particle consisting of RNA and associated proteins found in large numbers in the cytoplasm of living cells. They bind messenger RNA and transfer RNA to synthesize polypeptides and proteins (CR)
Allele : Two or more forms of a gene that are from mutation and are found in the same place on chromosomes.
Sperm : Male sex cell
Egg : Female sex cell
Genetics : the study of heredity and the variation of inherited characteristics (CR)
Mitosis : a type of cell division that results in two daughter cells each having the same number and kind of chromosomes as the parent nucleus, typical of ordinary tissue growth (CR)
Meiosis : a type of cell division that results in four daughter cells each with half the number of chromosomes of the parent cell, as in the production of gametes and plant spores (CR)
Mutation : the changing of the structure of a gene, resulting in a variant form which may be transmitted to subsequent generations, caused by the alteration of single base units in DNA, or the deletion, insertion, or rearrangement of larger sections of genes or chromosomes (CR)
Recessive condition : relating to or denoting heritable characteristics controlled by genes which are expressed in offspring only when inherited from both parents (CR)
Dominant condition : A genetic trait is considered dominant if it is expressed in a person who has only one copy of that gene (CR)
