The process of change in allele frequencies that occurs entirely from chance (changes in gene
frequencies that occur when small groups of individuals are reproductively separated from a
larger population) - ANS genetic drift
What are the steps of the scientific method? - ANS 1. Ask a Question / Observation
2. Do Background Research
3. Construct a Hypothesis
4. Test Your Hypothesis by Doing an Experiment
5. Analyze Your Data and Draw a Conclusion
6. Report Your Results
judging the rightness or wrongness of an act by characteristics of act itself - apart from its
consequences
(ex. "thou shalt not kill".. so euthanasia and abortion simply are not allowed) -

, (ex. the choice that yields the greatest benefit to the most people is the choice that is ethically
correct - euthanasia and abortion are permitted under some guidelines) - ANS Utilitarian
System
the expression of a gene (ex. blue eyes, brown fur, striped fruit, yellow flowers, etc) -
ANS phenotype
the genetic constitution of an individual organism - ANS genotype
allele that expresses itself when present in just one copy - ANS dominant allele
allele that is not expressed in the presence of the dominant allele - ANS Recessive allele
a condition in which two alleles for a trait are the same - ANS Homozygous
a condition in which two alleles for a trait are different from each other - ANS Heterozygous
contain two complete sets of genetic information; chromosomes exist as homologous pairs -
ANS Diploid Cells
contain one complete set of genetic information (egg and sperm) - ANS Haploid Cells
two chromosomes, one of paternal origin, the other of maternal origin, that contain the same
gene sequence and pair with each other and undergo crossing over during meiosis -
