1. Heredity

2. What are the principal mechanisms by which living things reproduce and transmit hereditary information from parents to offspring? Mendelian genetics Law of Segregation Law of Independent Assortment Punnett squares Meiosis DNA Sugar – deoxyribose; Nitrogenous bases (A, T, G, C) Complimentary base pairing DNA replication RNA Sugar – ribose; Nitrogenous bases (A, U, G, C) Types of RNA (mRNA, tRNA, ribosomal RNA) Protein Synthesis Transcription and Translation Genetic Engineering Cloning, transgenic organisms, methods of genetic engineering (restriction enzymes, gel electrophoresis, PCR)

4. Work with your EOC study group to discuss and find the answers to the item samplers given to you. You will have 15 minutes to complete this activity.

5. Answer the rest of the questions for homework.
