Update Already Graded A+
Genotype The genetic make-up of a cell, usually with reference to a specific
characteristic under consideration. ex) BbxBb
Phenotype The composite of an organism's observable (physical) characteristics or traits,
such as development, biochemical properties, phenology, behavior, and products of behavior.
DNA A molecule that encodes the genetic instructions used in the development and
functioning of all known living organisms and many viruses.
RNA Large biological molecules that perform multiple vital roles in the coding, decoding,
regulation and expression of genes.
Nucleotide Organic molecules that serve as the monomers (sub-units) of nucleic acids
like DNA & RNA.
Cell Basic structural, functional and biological unit of all known living organisms. Consists
of a protoplasm enclosed withing a membrane, which consists of proteins and nucleic acids.
Genome The entirety of an organism's hereditary information. Encoded either in DNA or
for many types of viruses, in RNA. Includes both the genes and the non-coding sequences of
DNA/RNA.
Transcriptome Set of all RNA molecules (mRNA, rRNA, tRNA, and other non-coding RNA)
produces in one or a population of cells.
Proteome The entire set of proteins expressed by a genome, cell, tissue, or organism at a
certain time. The set of expressed proteins in a given type of cell or organism, at a given time
under defined conditions.
