DNA: contains information for you to look and function, found in tightly coiled X shape.
Gene: a section of DNA.
Traits: a genetically determined characteristic (eye color, hair texture, etc.).
DNA is a long, double-stranded molecule that contains the genetic instructions for an organism's development, functioning, and reproduction. It is made up of four chemical building blocks called bases: adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T).
Gene is a unit of heredity that is transferred from parents to offspring and is responsible for determining a particular characteristic or trait. Genes are made up of segments of DNA and are located on chromosomes.
Traits are determined by the combination of alleles that an individual has for the genes that control that trait. Traits can be qualitative, meaning they have only two or a few possible values (such as eye color), or quantitative, meaning they can vary across a range of values (such as height).

photosynthesis and which is released. In blue: use arrows to show which gas is taken in during cellular respiration and 34. Draw a marine plant and label it with its common name. In green use arrows to show which gas is taken in during
which is released. (4 pts)
35. Use the picture and information given to calculate energy transfer. (4 pts) a. If 12% of the energy produced by the seagrass is passed on to the sea turtle, how much energy will the turtle get?
b. If the turtle uses 84% of the energy calculated in a.), what percent will get passed to the tiger shark?
C.
How much energy will the tiger shark get (from the original portion of seagrass)?
d. What will the shark use that energy for?
500 kJ
