This Law is the reason why a gamete receives one copy of a gene that is selected randomly.
What is the Law of Segregation?
100
The term that describes the traits that are passed down to you from your parents and ancestors.
What is heredity?
100
A graphic that shows the genealogical possibilities of two organisms' offspring.
What is a Punnett Square?
100
The term that describes an organism's appearance due to environmental influence and its heredity.
What is phenotype?
100
An organism that has mixed alleles to make up their trait.
What is a hybrid?
200
When two or more characteristics are inherited, individual hereditary factors are mixed up with no regard to each other, giving different traits an equal opportunity of occurring together.
What is the Law of Independent Assortment?
200
You are have this pairing of alleles if your parents both have the same genotype with two of the same alleles each.
What is homozygous?
200
A pedigree is used with domestic animals like dogs to show this.
What is their genetic history?
200
A trait that will only appear if both alleles are this type.
What is recessive?
200
The process that causes the offspring of a red flower and a white flower to become a pink flower.
What is incomplete dominance?
300
The law that states that a dominant allele will always overpower a recessive allele.
What is the Law of Dominance?
300
If your parents both have the same homozygous genotype, then you are this type of organism.
What is a purebred?
300
A pedigree can show whether a trait is recessive or this type.
What is dominant?
300
If two people of this genetic type reproduce, there is a 1/4 chance their offspring's phenotype is recessive.
What is heterozygous?
300
A blue butterfly sexually reproduces with a yellow butterfly to create an offspring that has blue wings with yellow spots.
What is co-dominance?
400
The Law of Independent Assortment allows for this.
What is genetic variety?
400
If only one of your parents passed down a recessive trait to you, you are this.
What is a carrier?
400
In a Punnett Square with two heterozygous parents, what is the probability of the offspring's phenotype being recessive?
What is 1/4?
400
If you are a carrier, then the phenotype showing will be what trait?
What is the dominant trait?
400
Co-dominance can create new forms of these?
What are phenotypes in a species?
500
All of Mendel's Laws work together to create these.
What are unique offspring?
500
Whether you are homozygous or heterozygous depends on these, which your parents pass down to you.
What are alleles?
500
A pedigree shows past outcomes while a Punnett Square shows this.
What are possible outcomes in the future?
500
If your parents are both the same type of homozygous, what is the probability you will take on the same phenotype as them?
What is 100%?
500
If you have a homozygous recessive parent and a heterzygous parent, what is the probability that your phenotype is dominant?
