The set of instructions within a cell that determine an organism's traits and functions, passed down from parent to offspring.

A specific segment of DNA that holds the instructions for creating a particular protein.

These molecules are like the 'workers' in cells, carrying out many essential functions.

The process where signals switch on or off the expression of a gene, controlling when and how the cell uses a specific protein.

A long molecule containing all the genetic information for an organism, packaged within a chromosome.

Variations in the DNA sequence between different species, which are passed down through generations.

The process where organisms change over time, driven by natural selection and mutations in their DNA.

The study of living organisms at the molecular level, often involving techniques like DNA sequencing and genetic engineering.

The process of separating DNA from cells, making it available for analysis.

Special proteins that cut DNA at specific sequences, like molecular scissors.

A technique used to create a unique fingerprint of an individual's DNA, useful for comparing samples and identifying individuals.

A type of agricultural research that investigates genetic improvements and advancements for plants and animals.

A competitive event within the FFA that encourages students to develop and present solutions to real-world agricultural issues.

A specific type of DNA that is often used in labs for experiments to learn how DNA works. Lambda DNA is a linear double-stranded DNA molecule.

A technique used to cut and separate DNA fragments based on their size. It uses an electric field to move the DNA pieces through a gel.

A method to separate DNA fragments after cutting with restriction enzymes. The process involves placing the fragments in a gel and applying an electric current, making fragments move through the gel at different rates based on their size.

A type of enzyme that cuts DNA at specific sequences, acting like molecular scissors.

Involving altering genetic material for applications like medicine, agriculture, or research.

A step-by-step process that describes how to perform an experiment or procedure, often used in science.

A set of guidelines for evaluating a problem-solving approach, often used in science education to assess student work.

The process where scientists learn about a topic through experiments and observations, often involving a series of steps: posing a question, researching, designing experiments, collecting data, analyzing data, and communicating findings.
