       HEREDITY - Heredity is the passing of traits to offspring (from
       its parent or ancestors). This is the process by which an
       offspring cell or organism acquires or becomes predisposed to
       the characteristics of its parent cell or organism. Through
       heredity, variations exhibited by individuals can accumulate and
       cause some species to evolve. The study of heredity in biology
       is called genetics, which includes the field of epigenetics

       HEREDITY
       Heredity is the passing of traits to offspring (from its parent
       or ancestors). This is the process by which an offspring cell or
       organism acquires or becomes predisposed to the characteristics
       of its parent cell or organism. Through heredity, variations
       exhibited by individuals can accumulate and cause some species
       to evolve. The study of heredity in biology is called genetics,
       which includes the field of epigenetics
       
       .
       CHROMOSOME
       A chromosome is an organized structure of DNA and protein that
       is found in cells. It is a single piece of coiled DNA containing
       many genes, regulatory elements and other nucleotide sequences.
       Chromosomes also contain DNA-bound proteins, which serve to
       package the DNA and control its functions.
       
       
       Diagram of a replicated and condensed metaphase eukaryotic
       chromosome. (1) Chromatid – one of the two identical parts of
       the chromosome after S phase. (2) Centromere – the point where
       the two chromatids touch, and where the microtubules attach. (3)
       Short arm. (4) Long arm.
       
       GENE
       A gene is a unit of heredity in a living organism. It normally
       resides on some stretches of DNA and RNA that codes for a type
       of protein or for an RNA chain that has a function in the
       organism. All living things depend on genes, as they specify all
       proteins and functional RNA chains. Genes hold the information
       to build and maintain an organism's cells and pass genetic
       traits to offspring, although some organelles (e.g.
       mitochondria) are self-replicating and are not coded for by the
       organism's DNA.
       This stylistic diagram shows a gene in relation to the double
       helix structure of DNA and to a chromosome (right). The
       chromosome is X-shaped because it is dividing. Introns are
       regions often found in eukaryote genes that are removed in the
       splicing process (after the DNA is transcribed into RNA): Only
       the exons encode the protein. This diagram labels a region of
       only 50 or so bases as a gene. In reality, most genes are
       hundreds of times larger.
       DNA-Deoxyribonucleic acid
       (/diˌɒksiˌraɪbɵ.njuːˌkle&#618
       ;.ɨk
       ˈæsɪd/  (  listen)), or DNA, is a nucleic acid that
       contains the genetic instructions used in the development and
       functioning of all known living organisms (with the exception of
       RNA viruses). The main role of DNA molecules is the long-term
       storage of information. DNA is often compared to a set of
       blueprints, like a recipe or a code, since it contains the
       instructions needed to construct other components of cells, such
       as proteins and RNA molecules. The DNA segments that carry this
       genetic information are called genes, but other DNA sequences
       have structural purposes, or are involved in rregulating the use
       of this genetic information.
       MITOSIS-Mitosis is the process by which a eukaryotic cell
       separates the chromosomes in its cell nucleus into two identical
       sets in two nuclei. It is generally followed immediately by
       cytokinesis, which divides the nuclei, cytoplasm, organelles and
       cell membrane into two cells containing roughly equal shares of
       these cellular components. Mitosis and cytokinesis together
       define the mitotic (M) phase of the cell cycle—the division of
       the mother cell into two daughter cells, genetically identical
       to each other and to their parent cell. This accounts for
       approximately 10% of the cell cycle.
       MIOSIS-Miosis (or myosis, from Ancient Greek
       μύειν, mūein, "to close the eyes")
       is constriction of the pupil of the eye to less than or equal to
       two milimeters[1]. This is a normal response to an increase in
       light, but can also be associated with certain pathological
       conditions, microwave radiation exposure, and certain drugs,
       especially opioids.
       The opposite, mydriasis, is the dilation of the pupil.

       many different biological traits, some of which are immediately
       visible, such as eye color or number of limbs, and some of which
       are not, such as blood type or increased risk for specific
       diseases, or the thousands of basic biochemical processes that
       comprise life.
       DNA consists of two long polymers of simple units called
       nucleotides, with backbones made of sugars and phosphate groups
       joined by ester bonds. These two strands run in opposite
       directions to each other and are therefore anti-parallel.
       Attached to each sugar is one of four types of molecules called
       bases. It is the sequence of these four bases along the backbone
       that encodes information. This information is read using the
       genetic code, which specifies the sequence of the amino acids
       within proteins. The code is read by copying stretches of DNA
       into the related nucleic acid RNA, in a process called
       transcription.
       Mitosis is the process by which a eukaryotic cell separates the
       chromosomes in its cell nucleus into two identical sets in two

       cell into two daughter cells, genetically identical to each
       other and to their parent cell. This accounts for approximately
       10% of the cell cycle.
       Meiosis uses many of the same mechanisms as mitosis, a type of
       cell division used by eukaryotes like plants and animals to
       split one cell into two identical daughter cells. In all plants,
       and in many protists, meiosis results in the formation of
       spores, haploid cells that can divide vegetatively without
       undergoing fertilization. Some eukaryotes, like Bdelloid
       rotifers, have lost the ability to carry out meiosis and have
       acquired the ability to reproduce by parthenogenesis. Meiosis
       does not occur in archaea or bacteria, which reproduce via
       asexual processes such as binary fission.

       Attached to each sugar is one of four types of molecules called
       bases. It is the sequence of these four bases along the backbone
       that encodes information. This information is read using the
       genetic code, which specifies the sequence of the amino acids
       within proteins. The code is read by copying stretches of DNA
       into the related nucleic acid RNA, in a process called
       transcription
       Mitosis is the process by which a eukaryotic cell separates the
       chromosomes in its cell nucleus into two identical sets in two
       nuclei. It is generally followed immediately by cytokinesis,
       which divides the nuclei, cytoplasm, organelles and cell
       membrane into two cells containing roughly equal shares of these
       cellular components. Mitosis and cytokinesis together define the
       mitotic (M) phase of the cell cycle—the division of the mother
       cell into two daughter cells, genetically identical to each

       In animals, meiosis produces gametes like sperm and egg cells,
       while in other organisms like fungi it generates spores. Meiosis
       begins with one diploid cell containing two copies of each
       chromosome—one from the organism's mother and one from its
       father—and produces four haploid cells containing one copy of
       each chromosome. Each of the resulting chromosomes in the gamete
       cells is a unique mixture of maternal and paternal DNA, ensuring
       that offspring are genetically distinct from either parent. This
       gives rise to genetic diversity in sexually reproducing
       populations, which enables them to adapt during the course of
       evolution.

       HEREDITY
       Heredity is the passing of traits to offspring (from its parent
       or ancestors). This is the process by which an offspring cell or
       organism acquires or becomes predisposed to the characteristics
       of its parent cell or organism. Through heredity, variations
       exhibited by individuals can accumulate and cause some species
       to evolve. The study of heredity in biology is called genetics,
       which includes the field of epigenetics.

       phosphate–sugar chains in a double helix.
       CHROMOSOME
       A chromosome is an organized structure of DNA and protein that
       is found in cells. It is a single piece of coiled DNA containing
       many genes, regulatory elements and other nucleotide sequences.
       Chromosomes also contain DNA-bound proteins, which serve to
       package the DNA and control its functions.

       chromosome. (1) Chromatid – one of the two identical parts of
       the chromosome after S phase. (2) Centromere – the point where
       the two chromatids touch, and where the microtubules attach. (3)
       Short arm. (4) Long arm.
       GENE
       A gene is a unit of heredity in a living organism. It normally
       resides on some stretches of DNA and RNA that codes for a type
       of protein or for an RNA chain that has a function in the
       organism. All living things depend on genes, as they specify all
       proteins and functional RNA chains. Genes hold the information
       to build and maintain an organism's cells and pass genetic
       traits to offspring, although some organelles (e.g.
       mitochondria) are self-replicating and are not coded for by the
       organism's DNA. All organisms have many genes corresponding to
       many different biological traits, some of which are immediately
       visible, such as eye color or number of limbs, and some of which
       are not, such as blood type or increased risk for specific
       diseases, or the thousands of basic biochemical processes that
       comprise life.
       
       
       This stylistic diagram shows a gene in relation to the double
       helix structure of DNA and to a chromosome (right). The
       chromosome is X-shaped because it is dividing. Introns are
       regions often found in eukaryote genes that are removed in the
       splicing process (after the DNA is transcribed into RNA): Only
       the exons encode the protein. This diagram labels a region of
       only 50 or so bases as a gene. In reality, most genes are
       hundreds of times larger.
       DNA
       Asid deoksiribonukleik (DNA) merupakan komponen kimia utama
       kromosom dan merupakan bahan yang menghasilkan gen. Ia kadang
       kala dipanggil molekul warisan, kerana DNA boleh mewariskan
       sifat sifat organisma induk (iaitu ibubapa). Dalam proses
       pembiakan, DNA bereplikasi dan hasilnya dipindahkan kepada
       zuriat.

       MITOSIS
       Mitosis is the process by which a eukaryotic cell separates the
       chromosomes in its cell nucleus into two identical sets in two
       nuclei. It is generally followed immediately by cytokinesis,
       which divides the nuclei, cytoplasm, organelles and cell
       membrane into two cells containing roughly equal shares of these
       cellular components. Mitosis and cytokinesis together define the
       mitotic (M) phase of the cell cycle—the division of the mother
       cell into two daughter cells, genetically identical to each
       other and to their parent cell. This accounts for approximately
       10% of the cell cycle.
       
       
       Mitosis divides the chromosomes in a cell nucleus.
       MIOSIS
       Miosis (or myosis, from Ancient Greek
       &#956;&#973;&#949;&#953;&#957;, m&#363;ein, "to close the eyes")
       is constriction of the pupil of the eye to less than or equal to
       two milimeters[1]. This is a normal response to an increase in
       light, but can also be associated with certain pathological
       conditions, microwave radiation exposure, and certain drugs,
       especially opioids.
