whole sets of genes and their interactions. Bioinformatics – is the application of computational methods to the storage and analysis of biological data Linkage Map – maps the location of several thousand genetic markers on each chromosome Physical Map – Expresses the distance between genetic markers‚ usually as the number of base pairs along the DNA Metagenomics – DNA from a group of species (a metagenome) is collected from an environmental sample and sequenced Gene Annotation – identification

Azariah Parks 08 February 16 Genetics Noonan Syndrome is a genetic disorder that causes a person not to develop properly in various areas of the body. These defects can occur in different areas‚ such as facial characteristics‚ heart defects‚ short stature‚ development delays and skeletal malformation. Symptoms from those areas can cause a person to have abroad or webbed neck‚ minor eye problems‚ abnormal bleeding‚ an unusual chest shape‚ which is often seen at birth‚ and late puberty particularly

of the gene is. It was determined that the species‚ Danio rerio‚ Xenopus tropicalis‚ Mus musculus‚ Rattus norvegicus‚ and Homo sapiens all shared similar functions for this gene. Thus the assumption was made that L. cuprina had to have a similar if not exactly the same as the closest species to it. Reading the tree‚ that species would have to be Mus musculus‚ Rattus norvegicus‚ and Homo sapiens. Discussion The main discovery of all of this research is that the function of the msl-1 gene is acetylation

Microevolution is the change in the genetic makeup of the gene pool of a population. It refers to the change in allelic frequencies that occur from generation to generation. There are three ways that microevolution can occur: mutation‚ genetic drift and natural selection. Mutation is the change in a gene of the DNA of an organism. This may change an allele and possibly the alleles frequency in the gene pool of the population. Genetic drift is an unpredictable change in a populations allelic frequencies

which allows the fittest organisms to produce offspring. To prevent a species from extinction‚ it is necessary for them to adapt to the surrounding environment. The species which have the ability to adapt to new surroundings will be able to pass their genes through reproduction. Within the process of natural selection‚ it is possible for the original genetic make-up of a species to become altered. The team will report on the different processes of basic mechanisms of evolution‚ how natural selection results

Biology is defined as “the study of life” from the Greek‚ bios meaning ‘life’ and logos meaning ‘study’. This approach has one key assumption. Our behaviours and the way we experience things are due to our biology. Genes‚ chemicals such as hormones‚ brain structure and systems. They believe that the environment does not have any influence on your condition. This approach tends to fit in with the nature nurture debate. A biological perspective is relevant to the study of psychology in three ways:

Genetic diseases transmitted only by a mother to both sons and daughters result from mitochondrial genes. Q7. Within a species‚ when a gene has multiple alleles‚ a single individual may carry 2 alleles. Q8. In humans the only cytoplasmic organelles besides nuclei that contain DNA are the mitochondria. Q9.

1. Alleles are different versions of the same gene and one may be dominant to the other. –TRUE 2. In a dihybrid cross of a mother and father who are both heterozygous dominant for chin fissures and dimples‚ what would be the phenotypic ratio of chin fissures and dimples in their offspring? –-9:3:3:1 3. If two alleles are heterozygous‚ it means they are the same allele. --FALSE 4.

disability‚ behavioral and learning challenges‚ and various physical characteristics. FXS is caused by changes in the fragile X mental retardation 1 (FMR1) gene. The FMR1 gene makes a protein called fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP). FMRP is needed for normal brain development. People who do not produce this protein have FXS. The FMR1 gene is located on the X chromosome; we all have 46 chromosomes in all of our cells. Out of 46 chromosomes‚ 44 chromosomes are numbered 1-22 in pairs. Females
