Key Concepts v




• Inherited traits are affected by genes. v v v v v




• Genes are composed of the chemical deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA).
v v v v v v v v




• DNA replicates to form (usually identical) copies of itself.
v v v v v v v v




• DNA contains a code specifying what types of enzymes and other proteins are made in
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




cells.v




• DNA occasionally mutates, and the mutant forms specify altered proteins.
v v v v v v v v v




• A mutant enzyme is an "inborn error of metabolism" that blocks one step in a bio-
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




chemical pathway for the metabolism of small molecules.
v v v v v v v v




• Traits are affected by environment as well as by genes.
v v v v v v v v v




• Organisms change genetically through generations in the process of biological
v v v v v v v v v




evolution.
v




• Because of their comm.on descent, organisms share many features of their genetics
v v v v v v v v v v v




and biochemistry. v

1.2. The importance of the nucleus in inheritance was implied by its prominence in fer-
v v v v v v v v v v v v v




tilization. The discovery of chromosomes inside the nucleus, their behavior during cell
v v v v v v v v v v v v




division, and the observation that each species has a characteristic chromosome
v v v v v v v v v v v




number made it likely that chromosomes were the carriers of the genes. Micro- scopic
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




studies showed that DNA and proteins are both present in chromosomes, but
v v v v v v v v v v v v




whereas nearly all cells of a given species contain a constant amount of DNA, the
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




amount and kinds of proteins differ greatly in different cell types.
