1_How is the genetic sequence of an organism like a blueprint of that organism?
2_If two organisms have almost identical sequences for the same gene, are they considered closely related?
3_What type of animal have scientists long thought was basal to all other animals? How has genetic analysis affected this view?
4_How has genetic analysis become quicker than it once was? How has that greatly helped with the search for a basal organism?
5_ What is a regulatory gene? How might they explain differences between organisms?
6_ What are "hox genes"? What phase of development are they a part of? What organisms have hox genes?
7_ If you find a fly with a leg coming out of its head and can identify what happened genetically to cause this, what have you discovered?

Chapter 11.1 & 11.2 notes section 11.1 1. every living thing has a set of ? inherited from its parents. 2. after becoming a ? , mendel spent several years studying ? and mathematics at the university of vienna. 3. during sexual reproduction, male and female reproductive cells join, a process known as ? . 4. pea flowers are normally ? , which means that sperm cells in pollen fertilize the egg cells in the ? flowers. 5. when mendel crossed plants with ? characters for the same trait, the resulting offspring had only one of the characters. 6. a ? is a specific characteristic, such as seed color or plant height, that varies from one individual to another. 7. filius and filia are the latin words for ? and ? . 8. the offspring of crosses between parents with different traits are called ? . 9.to mendel's surprise, all of the offspring had the character of only ? of the parents. 10. mendel's first conclusion was that biological inheritance is determined by ? that are ? from one generation to the next. 11. scientist calls the chemical factors that determine traits ? . 12. mendel's second conclusion is the ? . 13. the principle of dominance states that some alleles are ? and others are ? . 14. when mendel allowed the f1 plants to reproduce by self-pollination the traits controlled by ? alleles reappeared in about ? of the f2 plants in each cross.
