answer
-4tissue types -23 pairs of chromosome -206 bones -DNA -Bipedal -Opposable thumbs -highly evolved brain -24 ribs -4 chambered heart
question
Epithelial tissue
answer
-Forms lining, covering, and glandular tissue of the body -cells packed tightly together
question
Connective tissue
answer
-Protects, supports, and binds together other body tissue -consistent matrix allows to to fill spaces
question
Muscle tissue
answer
-Specialized to contract and cause movement -skeletal muscle -cardiac muscle -smooth muscle
question
Nervous tissue
answer
-Composed of neurons that send and receive electrical signals in the body -responds to stimuli and transmit impulses -brain, spinal cord, nerves
question

question
Structure and function of Deoxyribonucleic acid
answer
-Deoxyribose: sugar in it made up of building blocks of nucleic acid -double stranded helical molecule made of chromosomes in nucleus -DNA makes up genes -Genes make up chromosomes -Each gene codes for a protein which determines trait
question
How does DNA differ from person to person
answer
-99.9% matches of every person -determined by nucleotides
question
Compare DNA of two people
answer
-scientists perform polymerase chain reaction -amplify making the sample bigger than original -Cut DNA with restriction enzymes -Run through gel electrophoresis to analyze size of each fragment -Restriction enzyme will cut each persons DNA in a different place -Restriction fragment length polymerase will look different
question
Restriction enzymes
answer
-Mostly come from bacteria -Chemicals in it break down DNA of invading viruses -Used for cutting DNA into smaller fragments(RFLP
question
Restriction fragment length polymorphism
answer
-Bit of DNA after the long strand has been cut by restriction enzyme -Seen through electrophoresis gel
question
Gel electrophoresis
answer
-To carry across with electricity -DNA has (-) charge so they're attracted to (+) charge -Samples are placed in wells within agarose gel near a (-) electrode -When turned on, they move toward the (+) electrode -Bit get separated by size making it possible to tell people apart
