Details
Give the whole section the title 3.3. Chromosomes and this subsection
the title seen to the left. Also add your name & the page number.
Include the picture of a karyotype of a normal human (no chromosomal
abnormalities). If you’re male, make sure you pick the MALE
karyotype. If you’re female, pick the FEMALE karyotype. Label the
karyotype as Normal Human Male/Female (whichever you are)
Karyotype. Highlight/color the autosomal chromosomes yellow, and
number them from 1-22. Highlight/color the sex chromosomes (X =
pink, Y = blue). Make a key with the colors (yellow, pink, and blue) and
what they represent. Answer the following questions/statements (using
the corresponding numbers) about chromosomes in complete
sentences:
1. Where in the cell they’re found
2. How many a typical human has, along with how many come
from mom? From dad?
3. What material they’re made out of (hint: a macromolecule)
4. What sections of them are called (hint: we have 30,000-80,000
of these)
5. What they code for (the production of what?)
6. What a karyotype is used for (generally)
Label this page with the title to the left. Take a picture of your white
board after you finish going through the phases of mitosis to illustrate
the process. Label the phases, and make sure they are large, neat,
and in order. Describe what happens GENERALLY during each
process. You should color code different chromosomes the appropriate
colors that are used in the activity. Also answer the following
questions/statements (using the corresponding numbers) in complete
sentences:
1. In which body systems does mitosis occur and what kinds of
cells are made this way?
2. How does the number of chromosomes in the daughter cell
compare to the number in the parent cell?
3. How many chromosomes does a HUMAN cell contain at each
step? (assuming no chromosomal abnormalities).

Label this page with the title to the left. Include a legend showing the
alleles for the 3 disorders.

Make a pocket for your “dad” chromatids and one for your “mom”
chromatids (if you’re doing a digital version, take a picture of and label
each of these, then include this with your document).
Also include the following tables, filled in (these data tables are found
with the 3.3 pictures):
 Parents—Genotypes and Phenotypes
 First Child—Genotypes and Phenotypes
 Second Child—Genotypes and Phenotypes
 Class Data
3.3.1. Genetic Terms
(Definitions)
Label this page with the title to the left. Include each of the following
vocabulary terms, a picture for each term to help illustrate that term’s
meaning, and write what the term means in your own words. Terms to
include are:
 Allele
 Homologous (use ROOTS to help)
 Gene
 Genotype (use ROOTS to help)
 Mutation
 Pedigree
 Phenotype (use ROOTS to help)
 Recessive
 Dominant

Add’l Concept Map
Label this page with the title to the left. Make a concept map about the
relationship between chromosomes, genes, and DNA (the info for this
is one of the attachments with A 3.3.1). The map must include the
following 14 terms: chromosomes, code, disease, DNA, genes,
proteins, alleles, phenotype, genotype, recessive gene, dominant gene,
mitosis, meiosis, and traits (these are the terms that should be in your
bubbles). Add additional terms and connecting phrases as needed to
complete your map. Remember, if you do this correctly, you should be
able to read your map like a sentence! You should include at least 6
pictures of your choosing to jazz up/personalize/make connections to
your concept map.
