Nuage Shared "Example Playlist" - 20 Picmonics

With Picmonic, facts become pictures. We've taken what the science shows - image mnemonics work - but we've boosted the effectiveness by building and associating memorable characters, interesting audio stories, and built-in quizzing. Whether you're studying for your classes or getting ready for a big exam, we're here to help.

Example Playlist

Chromosome and DNA
DNA is the blueprint for building an organism
A chromosome is packed with DNA
Chromosomes exist in pairs
Humans have 23 chromosome pairs
Chromosomes are found in the nucleus

Blood Types
Allele A is Dominant
Allele B is Dominant
Allele O is Recessive
Genotypes AA and AO have Type A Blood
Genotypes BB and BO have Type B Blood
Genotype AB is co-dominant and has Type AB Blood
Genotype OO Results in Type O Blood

Genes and Alleles
A gene is a fragment of DNA that codes for a trait (hair color)
An allele is a form of a gene that codes for a specific characteristic (brown hair)
Half of a child's genes and alleles come from each parent

Experimental Group vs. Control Group
Experimental Group 1 is given a treatment of independent variable
Experimental Group 2 is given a different treatment of Independent Variable
Both experimental groups are observed for changes
The control group is isolated from the independent variable treatments
Control (Constant) Variables are in each group

Heredity
Passing characteristics from parent to offspring
Those characteristics can be similar to or different from parents
Half of the genes come from the father
Half of the genes come from mother
Recessive characteristics not expressed in either parent can be expressed in a child
Some phenotypes are more favorable than others in Natural Selection

Cells and the Nucleus
Cells are the smallest unit of life
Cells are the building blocks of all life
The nucleus is the "brain" of the cell
The nucleus holds DNA

Dominant vs. Recessive
Dominant allele dominates over recessive allele
If both alleles are present the dominant phenotype is expressed
The recessive phenotype is expressed only with two recessive alleles
Examples of dominant characteristics are widow's peak, dark hair, and dark eyes
Examples of recessive characteristics are straight hairline, light hair, and light eyes

Homozygous vs. Heterozygous
Description of Genotypes
Homozygous has 2 of the same allele (AA or aa)
Homozygous dominant is AA
Homozygous Recessive is aa
Heterozygous has 2 different alleles (Aa)

Genotype vs. Phenotype
Genotype is the genetic makeup
Genotype is coded in DNA
Genotype is shown as 2 letters that represent 2 alleles
Genotype is the code for phenotype
Phenotype is physical appearance of organism

Quantitative vs. Qualitative
Quantitative
Measureable and uses numbers
Can be gathered by counting, using measurement tools, or creating a scale
Can be compared more easily
Qualitative
Descriptive and uses adjectives
Can be made quantitative by creating a scale, using a 1 to 5 system

Purpose of Cell Division
Cells divide to make reproductive cells (sperm and eggs)
Reproductive cell division produces unique cells, not clones
New reproductive cells have only one set of chromosomes (half)
Reproductive cells can combine and share a full set of chromosomes
Most cell division produces exact clones with full sets of chromosomes
Cells divide for organism repair
Cells divide for organism growth
