SOME (but not all!) KEY TERMS AND IDEAS FOR THESE TWO WEEKS

·  cell membrane structure – Fluid Mosaic Model

·  movement of materials across membranes

·  regulation of internal and external cell environments

·  osmosis, diffusion and active transport

·  subcellular organization (can you name all the organelles and their function?)

·  cell cycle

·  cell cycle regulation and cancer

·  Meiosis

·  Somatic cells vs. gametes

·  Homologous chromosomes: autosomes vs. sex chromosomes

·  Haploid cells vs. diploid cells

·  Stages of Meiosis

·  Comparisons of mitosis and meiosis

·  Sources of genetic variability: crossing over (chiasma, genetic recombination), independent orientation of chromosomes, random fertilization

·  Alterations of chromosome number and structure

·  Karyotype

·  Nondisjunction: trisomy and monosomy

·  Deletion, duplication, inversion, translocation

·  Mendel’s Principles

·  Self-fertilization, cross fertilization, hybrids, P generation, F1 and F2 generation, alleles, dominant, recessive, homozygous, heterozygous

·  Punnett Squares

·  Principle of Segregation

·  Principle if Independent Assortment

·  Test cross

·  Rules of Probability: rule of multiplication, rule of addition

·  Pedigree analysis and single gene autosomal disorders

·  Fetal analysis, amniocentesis, chorionic villus sampling, ultrasound imaging
