This was Mendel's profession.
What is a monk?
What percent will have blue eyes?
0 %
Parents with recessive traits will always have children with this trait.
What is the recessive trait?
Meiosis produces this many cells.
What is 4?
Different forms of the same gene are called this.
What are alleles?
Mendel used these types of plants in his experiments.
What are pea plants?
If a dog is a hybrid for white fur(F) and has puppies with another dog with white fur, and half their puppies have brown fur, what is the genotype of the other dog?
What is Ff?
What is gamete/reproductive cell?
The physical appearance of a trait.
What is phenotype?
Mendel's first experiment involved pea plants with different colored these.
What are flowers?
Give all possible genotypes for a cross between genotypes of Rr and Rr.
What is RR, Rr, rr?
If parents have different genotypes, and one is homozygous for the recessive trait, this is the genotype of the other parent if all their children have a dominant phenotype.
What is homozygous dominant?
Compared to the original cell, each cell produced in meiosis has this many chromosomes.
What is half?
The gene combination that produces a certain trait.
What is genotype?
Mendel is known as "the father of" this.
What is genetics?
Two parents that are homozygous for the recessive trait of blue eyes will have children with these colored eyes.
What is blue?
If all offspring are heterozygous for purple flowers(Pp), what must the genotypes of the parents be?
The first instance of genetic variation occurs by this process.
What is crossing over?
Occurs when neither allele is dominant or one is only partially dominant.
What is incomplete or codominance?
Mendel was born in this country.
What is Austria?
Give all possible genotypes of children whose parents have genotypes of FF and ff.
What is Ff?
Give the possible phenotypes of children for brown(B) and blue(b) eyes if the parents' genotypes are Bb and bb.
50% blue and 50% brown
If an organism's gametes have 18 chromosomes, their body cells have this many chromosomes.
What is 36?
What is polygenic inheritance?
