  • Characteristics of DNA and RNA molecules and their function:

    DNA carries the genetic information from generation to generation and also controls various cellular activities, while generally RNA participates in the synthesis of proteins.

  • Chromosomes

    Homologous chromosomes carry the same type of genetic information, for example information for seed shape in peas, but they may not carry exactly the same information, for example one has information for round seeds and one for wrinkled seeds.

  • Daughter cells and identical set of chromosomes in mitosis

    It helps in the perpetuation of hereditary information from one generation to the other, as DNA, which is the carrier of genetic information, replicates before the cell divides, thus ensuring that each new daughter cell receives a complete, identical

  • DNA as the heritable material of the cell

    What is your evidence that DNA is the genetic molecule of heredity? b. The Human Genome Project began with two goals: to know the sequence of genes on all the human chromosomes and to know the sequence of bases on all the human chromosomes.

  • Imprinting and replication

    DNA fingerprinting is different in that it is a test to identify and evaluate the genetic information called DNA in a person's cells.

  • Life on earth (biological concepts from the non-science major perspective)

    Because of the base pairing rules, one strand acts as the template during DNA synthesis and preserves the genetic information in a semi-conservative manner.

  • Eukaryotic cells

    Bacteria do not have telomeres and divide much faster than eukaryotic cells however they are able to divide and not lose any genetic information.

  • Genetic Diversity in Mitosis

    Unequal split of mitochondria and chloroplasts - the mitochondria and chloroplasts are organelles in cells that have their own DNA (separate from the DNA in the nucleus). In most cases, all of the DNA information comes from the mother.

  • DNA evidence
