Patterns of Heredity
the BIG idea
In sexual reproduction, genes are passed from parents to offspring in
predictable patterns.
4.1
Living things inherit traits in patterns.
4.2
Patterns of heredity can be predicted.
4.3
DNA is divided during meiosis.
4.4
Cells use DNA and RNA to make proteins.

7.2.c Students know an inherited trait can be
determined by one or more genes.
heredity
7.2.d Students know plant and animal cells contain
many thousands of different genes and typically have
two copies of every gene. The two copies (or alleles)
of the gene may or may not be identical, and one may
be dominant in determining the phenotype while the
other is recessive.

VOCABULARY
Offspring inherit alleles, which
are forms of genes, from their
parents. Alleles can be dominant
or recessive.The alleles you have
are your genotype; the
observable characteristics that
come from your genotype are
your phenotype.

KEY CONCEPT
Cells use DNA and RNA to make proteins.
DNA contains a code that enables a cell to make RNA
and proteins.
Replication copies the DNA code before a cell divides.
• DNA’s triplet code enables a cell to code for proteins.
VOCABULARY
replication
RNA
• A cell’s mRNA, tRNA, and ribosomes translate the code
into a sequence of amino acids.
• The amino acids form a protein needed for cell function.
