MS.PS1B.c

(MS.PS1B.c) Some chemical reactions release energy (exothermic reactions), others store energy (endothermic reactions).

MS.LS4B.b

(MS.LS4B.b) Genetic engineering techniques can manipulate the DNA within various organisms. Technology has changed the way humans influence the inheritance of desired traits in organisms. (e.g., selective breeding, gene modification, gene therapy, or other...

MS.LS4B.a

(MS.LS4B.a) Natural selection leads to the predominance of certain traits in a population and the suppression of others.

MS.LS3B.a

(MS.LS3B.a) In sexually reproducing organisms, each parent contributes to the genes acquired (at random) by the offspring. Individuals have two of each chromosome and hence two alleles of each gene, one acquired from each parent. These versions may be identical or may...

MS.LS3A.d

(MS.LS3A.d) Variations of inherited traits between parent and offspring arise from genetic differences that result from the subset of chromosomes (and therefore genes) inherited.
