Document Summary
Central dogma of molecular genetics (cid:862)dna (cid:373)akes na (cid:373)akes protei(cid:374): It is useful to outline the compartments, to suggest that eukaryotic cells have compartments. Nuclear envelope separates the nucleus from the cytoplasm. Things have to move in a regulated fashion. Use terms (vocabulary words?) to connect the items. Fig 10-1 tells a brief history about genetics. Genetics began with some garden peas that gregor mendel was studying in his monetary garden. Along when people were using microscopes, they got the idea that there were things inside of cells that eventually became known as chromosomes that existed. Chromosomes were moved into two new dividing cells. In mitotic cells there were 2 copies of these chromosomes, known as homologous chromosomes that set the stage called crossing over (genetical recombination / reciprocal genetic exchange). That is the paternal (father) and maternal (mother) chromosomes get together and exchange segments within your cells that are undergoing meiosis.
