A trait shows up only when 2 genes for it are present because it can be masked or hidden by another gene. It is-
What is recessive?
Which of the following describes an organism that has a genotype of Bb?
What is Heterozygous?
A man heterozygous for blood type A mates with a woman heterozygous for blood type B. The chance that their first child will have O blood is
What is 1/4 or 25%?
You can tell this by looking at someone's PHysical appearance
What is a PHenotype?
What phase of MEiosis is represented above?
What is Anaphase II?
A trait only needs 1 gene to be expressed and to mask the other gene. It is -
What is dominant?
What best describes these alleles - EE?
What is homozygous?
In humans, brown eye color is a dominant allele to blue eye color. Draw and solve the Punnett square crossing two heterozygous brown-eyed parents?
This is made of the 2 alleles or genes for a trait
What is a genotype?
During meiosis in prophase I, homologous chromosomes can exchange DNA in a process called
What is crossing over?
This is represented by a lower case letter
What is recessive?
Two alleles that are the same are described to be (ex: EE or ee)
What are homozygous?
In a cross between Rr and Rr, what is the probability of the offspring showing a recessive trait?
What is 1/4 or 25%?
According to the pedigree, what genotypes would the parents have?
What are Ee and Ee?
Unlike miTosis, MEiosis produces
What are 4 haploid cells?
This is represented by an upper case letter
What is dominant
Two have 2 different versions of a gene can be described as (ex: Ee or Bb)
What is heterozygous?
In snapdragons, the combined expression of both alleles for flower color produces a new phenotype that is pink. This illustrates incomplete dominance. What would be the correct product from a cross between two heterozygous pink snapdragons?
What is 1 red, 2 pink, and 1 white?
In the pea plant, round seeds (R) are dominant over wrinkled seeds (r). Predict the phenotypic ratio of a cross between a homozygous round plant with a homozygous wrinkled plant.
What is round plants?
What process produces body cells, and what produces gametes?
These traits are weaker.
What are recessive?
In domestic cats, the gene for Tabby stripes (T) is dominant over the gene for no stripes (t). If you had a Tabby cat and wanted to know if the cat was homozygous or heterozygous, what type of cat could you breed your Tabby with to prove its genotype?
What is no stripes?
In Dachshund dogs, short hair is dominant (S) and long hair is recessive (s). How would you determine if a short haired Dachshund is homozygous dominant (SS) or heterozygous dominant (Ss)?
What is cross it with a long haired Dachshund?
Female cattle that have white coats are crossed with male cattle that have red coats. Both male and female offspring have roan coats, which are coats with both red hairs and white hairs. What best describes the genetics of coat color in the cattle - incomplete dominance or codominance?
What is red and white are codominant?
If the somatic cells of the sample organism had 24 chromosomes, how many chromosomes will each gamete contain?
What are 12?
