Mendel
The organism that Gregor Mendel often studied.
What are pea plants?
What is 50%
The physical characteristics of an organism.
What is a Phenotype?
Two equally dominant alleles are expressed at the same time (Ex: dots, etc...).
What is codominance?
A map of the genotypes and phenotypes that are inherited in a family
What is a Pedigree?
What people call Gregor Mendel.
The Father of Genetics?
The genotypes of the parents if all offspring are heterozygous (Aa).
What are AA and aa?
The allele combination of an organism.
What is Genotype?
Neither allele is completely shown/dominant of the other (a mixture of blending of the two).
What is Incomplete dominance?
How many traits is a monohybrid cross?
What is one trait
Homozygous vs heterozygous
2 of the same letter vs 2 different letters or a capitol and lower case
What is 100%?
An individual with one dominant and one recessive allele.
What is Heterozygous?
SnapDragons are often referred to when explaining Incomplete Dominance. The resulting phenotype of the heterozygous pair (blue and yellow), would be _________.
What is Green?
how many traits is Dihybrid
what is two traits
give examples of Gene vs Allele
Gene is a section of DNA
allele is a version of the trait
The possible offspring of parents who are AA and aa
What are Aa or Heterozygous
An individual with two of the same alleles.
What is Homozygous?
Multiple genes control the same trait, such as skin color
What is Polygenic inheritance?
On a dihybrid what is the gametes of this parent AaBB
What is AB, AB, aB, aB
a homozygous dominant tall pea plant is crossed with a heterozygous pea plant. Create a punnett square and give the genotypes and phenotypes. Tall is Dominant to Short
T T
T TT TT
t Tt Tt
50% TT 50% Tt 100% tall
If both parents are heterozygous for skin color (Rr) and hair color (Hh), the percent of offspring who will be heterozygous for both.
What is 1/4?
The name for different forms of a gene.
In X-linked traits, these individuals can only inherit their phenotype from their mother.
What are Males?
On a Dihybrid what is the gametes of this parent? AaBb
What is AB, Ab, aB, ab
