Chloroplasts horizontal gene transfer genes were transferred by eating something else cell division to make more cells increase in cell size replicate the organelles duplicate genetic material divide necessary for evolution making proteins dna codes for proteins which do all the work for cells replication dna polymerase transcription (making an rna copy) rna polymerase. Died obscure scientific integrity mendel"s data was analyzed in 1918 by ra fisher the near perfect fit of mendels data to his model has been a point of debate there have been accusations of scientific fraud or of confirmation bias terminology gene (section of dna that codes for a protein), allele: specific version of that gene dominant (the one you see), recessive true breeding : all homozygous homozygous (2 same alleles), heterozygous genotype, phenotype mendels laws law of segregation: traits are encoded by alleles, and the alleles of diploid organisms separate during the production of gametes.
