Heredity
What are the principal mechanisms by which living things reproduce and transmit hereditary
information from parents to offspring?• Mendelian genetics
• Law of Segregation• Law of Independent Assortment• Punnett squares
• Meiosis• DNA
• Sugar – deoxyribose; Nitrogenous bases (A, T, G, C)• Complimentary base pairing• DNA replication
• RNA• Sugar – ribose; Nitrogenous bases (A, U, G, C)• Types of RNA (mRNA, tRNA, ribosomal RNA)
• Protein Synthesis• Transcription and Translation
• Genetic Engineering• Cloning, transgenic organisms, methods of genetic engineering (restriction enzymes, gel
electrophoresis, PCR)
Work with your EOC study group to discuss and find the answers to the item samplers
given to you.
You will have 15 minutes to complete this activity.
Answer the rest of the questions for
homework.
