The study of genes and the inheritance of traits
Gregor Mendel’s work determined that hereditary characters are transmitted to offspring by separate units
Later known to be genes

Characteristics
These are features you exhibit physically
( your looks)
Example: Eye color - green

Traits
The different versions of a characteristic
Example: blue, green, and brown eyes

Inheritance
Occurs when traits are passed down from parent to child.

Chromosomes
Most human cells contain 46 chromosomes:
2 sex chromosomes (X,Y):XY – in males.XX – in females.
22 pairs of chromosomes named autosomes.

DNA stands for deoxyribose nucleic acid
This chemical substance is present in the nucleusof all cells in all living organisms
DNA controls all the chemical changes which take place in cells
The kind of cell which is formed, (muscle, blood,nerve etc) is controlled by DNA
The kind of organism which is produced (buttercup,giraffe, herring, human etc) is controlled by DNA

DNA is a very large molecule made up of a long chain of sub-units
The sub-units are called nucleotides
Each nucleotide is made up of
a sugar called deoxyribose
a phosphate group -PO4 and
an organic base

Ribose is a sugar, like glucose, but with only fivecarbon atoms in its molecule
Deoxyribose is almost the same but lacks one oxygen atom
Both molecules may be represented by the symbol
Ribose & deoxyribose 4

The most common organic bases are
Adenine (A)
Thymine (T)
Cytosine (C)
Guanine (G)

In fact, the DNA usually consists of a double strand of nucleotides
The sugar-phosphate chains are on the outsideand the strands are held together by chemical bonds between the bases

Genes
Bits of information passed down from parent to child.
Made of chemicals called DNA.

Proteins are long chains of amino acids
The sequence of bases in a gene is a code instructing the cell how to construct a particular protein – i.e. the number of amino acids and the order in which they are to be assembled.
