Population Genetic
This is the term for all the different alleles (genes) present in a specific population at one time.
What is gene pool
This is any factor from the environment—like UV light, X-rays, or dangerous chemicals—that causes a mutation in our DNA.
what is Mutagen
This dominant allele completely masks the recessive allele (e.g., Mendel's peas).
Complete Dominance
his diagram uses a grid of squares to predict the possible genotypes and phenotypes of offspring from two parents.
Punnett sqaure
This specific type of daily radiation from the sun is a mutagen that causes sunburns and skin cancer by damaging DNA
Heterozygotes display a blended intermediate phenotype (e.g., pink snapdragons).
Incomplement Dominance
This visual family tree uses shapes to track how a genetic trait or disease is passed down through generations.
what is pedigree chart
This specific type of point substitution mutation alters a single nucleotide base pair but has zero effect on the final amino acid sequence due to the redundancy or degeneracy of the genetic code
What is silent mutation
Zimbabwae national fruit
mahobohobo
This type of mutation involves a change in just one single letter (nucleotide) of the DNA code
what is Point mutation

What is a mahobohobo
orange fruit
This is the name given to the molecule that carries the genetic instructions for all living things.
DND
How long can a snail sleep for
Both alleles express simultaneously and distinctly (e.g., AB blood type system).
