Term
Genes
Definition
blue prints assemble & regulation of protiens
Term
codons
Definition

3 base pairs

string together to make gene

Term
amino acid
Definition

sequence of base pair

linked together to create predtides & protiens

Term
bouncing ball
Definition

DOES NOT HAVE GENES

still *orderly *predictable *linear

Term
control
Definition
genes do not control devopment
Term
"control"- direct
Definition
steering wheel: controls car but YOU turn wheel.
Term
genes are helpful but
Definition
they are pons.
Term
genes do not directly produce structure
Definition
they work indirectly through interactions w/ internal & external environment
Term
ALWAYS AN EXTERNAL CUE
Definition
genes are like bricks
Term
GENEIC PROGRAMING!!
Definition
programed by development.
Term
totipotent
Definition
every possible outcome
Term
plurapotent
Definition
becomes more restricted. just some things aposed to all in totipotent. losses potency because of differantion.
Term
cancer
Definition
pluripotent can not express things that have been silentced again expect cancer.
Term
DEVOLPMENT IS ALWAYS CHARACTERIZED BY OVEREXPRESSION FOLLOWED BY RETRACTION
Definition
DEVOLPMENT IS ALWAYS CHARACTERIZED BY OVEREXPRESSION FOLLOWED BY RETRACTION
Term
progressive determination
Definition
DEVOLPMENT IS ALWAYS CHARACTERIZED BY OVEREXPRESSION FOLLOWED BY RETRACTION
Term
every time you make a choice you get fewer options
Definition
rock down hill exp.
Term
you loose info with devolopment
Definition
rock on hill.
Term
epigenetic info
Definition
outside of genetic
Term
"epi" = beyond genetic
Definition
nongenetic cellualr memory that records developmental & enviornmental cues.
Term
cellular cues
Definition
regulators for development
Term
intrensic
Definition
inside cell
Term
extrensic
Definition
outside cell
Term
BOTTOM LINE:
Definition
NOT ALL GENETIC
Term
sperm & egg: orderly and predictable
Definition
no gene expression.
Term
development is both
Definition
progressive & regressive
Term
blastula
Definition
hollow ball of cells; totipotent. clones of each other.
Term
blastula collapes in on itself & makes 3 germ layors
Definition
endoderm, mesoderm, & ectoderm
Term
endoderm
Definition
gut, liver, lings
Term
mesoderm
Definition
heart, bones, muscles, genitals
Term
ectoderm
Definition
cranial bones, skin, nervous system
Term
when 3 germ layors (endoderm, mesoderm, & ectoderm) are created....
Definition
now it is PLURIPOTENT
Term
gastration
Definition
when endoderm, mesoderm, & ectoderm becomes what they are
Term
gastration
Definition
sets stage for INDUCTION
Term
induction
Definition
info of how to proceed. tells how to differencate. (the organizer) not in dna of cells. epigenetic!!!!
Term
Neural Plate Induction
Definition
mesoderm diffuses up to the ectoderm.
"forget skin" "N.S express yourself"
Term
neural plate induction
Definition
they conformation change (change shape)
Term
ectoderm -> neural plate -> neural grove -> neural tube
Definition
neural plate -> neural grove : laundry bag.
Term
neurlation
Definition
process to the neural tube
Term
neural tube
Definition
all parts of CNS arise from neural tube
