T/F: Every gene only influences a single trait.
What is False?
100
These are the type of alleles you would find if an organism where to be heterozygous (a hybrid).
What is a dominant and a recessive (Aa)?
100
This is the type of plant that Gregor Mendel worked with when doing his with with heredity.
What are pea plants?

Brown eyes are dominant to blue. In a recessive pedigree how would you represent a male that has brown eyes.
What is a square that is not filled in or half filled in?
100
This is a graphic used to predict the possible genotypes of offspring in a given cross.
What is a Punnett Square?
200
This is the combination of alleles that you inherited from your parents.
What is genotype?
200
If you take one pure breeding yellow pea and cross it with a pure breeding green pea, and all peas in the next generation are yellow this is what you know about the parents.
What is yellow color is dominant and green color is recessive?
200
If tongue rolling are dominant to not tongue rolling, and a homozygous dominant woman mates with a man who can't roll is tongue, this is the probability that their child will show the dominant trait.
What is 100%?
200
If a blue eyed male (recessive) has a child with a blue eyed female (who is recessive), this is the chance of having a brown eyed child.
What is 0%?
200
This will trace the occurrence of a trait through generations of a family.
What is a pedigree?
300
The only way you can have a recessive trait is what you have this many alleles.
What is two?
300
This describes a segment of DNA that determines a specific trait.
What is a gene?
300
A scientist crosses a plant that has red flowers with a plant that has white flowers. The result is only red flowers. This is why.
What is complete dominance?
300
This person is considered the "father of modern genetics" because of his work with pea plants.
Who is Gregor Mendel?
300
If you cross a blue fish with a yellow fish and the result is a fish that is both blue and yellow, this is the type of dominance that is shown.
What codominance?
400
Homozygous means that you have _________________.
What is two of the same types of alleles (AA or aa)?
400
A snapdragon plant with blue flowers is crossed with a snapdragon plant with yellow flowers. The offspring are green. This is why.
What is incomplete dominance?
400
This is one of the versions or forms of a gene.
What is an allele?
400
This is the number of genes in a chromosome.
What is how many segments it is broken down into... 8 segments?
400
This is the combination of alleles you get when you have a homozygous geneotype.
What is the same type of alleles (either dominant or recessive)?
500
This is the visual that is used to trace a trait through a family over many generations. It used circles and squares.
What is a pedigree?
500
These are the two things that influences a trait:
What is both the genes and the environment.
500
Brown eyes is dominant to blue. In a recessive pedigree this is how a blue eyed female would be represented.
What is a circle that is filled in?
500
A heterozygous gene pair would have the following types of alleles.
What is a dominant and recessive allele (Tt)?
500
This is how a phenotype is different from a genotype:
What is a phenotype is the observable traits where genotype is the combination of alleles?
