What is heredity?
The passage of genetic instructions (traits) from parent to offspring.
100

How are traits passed from parents to offspring? 

What is through genes and chromosomes during reproduction?

100

Some genes can be hidden or covered up by another. These are considered to be-

Recessive

100

Where is DNA mostly found within a cell?

What is the nucleus

200

Where are genes located?

What is in the chromosomes or DNA?

200

What determines the probability of offspring? 

What is a Punnett square? 

200

Name two traits that could be inherited from a parent. 

What is: hair color, eye color, skin, height, freckles, widows peak. 

200

What do the letters on the outside of a Punnett square represent?

What are the parents of the cross.

200

What does homozygous mean.

Same, HH, hh

300

What are the threadlike structures of DNA that carry the genetic codes for traits?

base pairs or A, T, G, C

300

What is the percentage of offspring when a heterozygous crossed with a heterozygous ?

What is 25% homozygous dominant

50% heterozygous

25% homozygous recessive 

300

 is called the “father of genetics”

Gregor Mendel

A black chicken (BB) is crossed with a white chicken (bb). What percentage of offspring will be black?

100% Heterozygous black chickens?

300

What is a probable reason that a trait skips a generation?

What  is recessive?

400

Inherited traits that children get from their parents come from-

Genes

400

The different forms or variations of a gene.

What are alleles?


400

For some traits, only one copy of a particular gene is needed to show a given trait. The gene that always shows up. These genes are referred to as

Dominant

400

The likelihood that a particular event will occur.

What is probability?

400

Observable traits that you can see.

What is a phenotype?

500
What do we call the genetic make up of the individual, represented by a set of letters?
Genotype
500

How many chromomsomes do humans have?

46 or 23 pair

500

Two dark brown rabbits have four offspring. Three of the offspring are dark and one is white. What does this tell you about the parents' genes for fur color?

Dark brown is dominant and white fur is recessive. Both parents are heterozygous.

Explain Homozygous Dominant and Homozygous Recessive on the Punnett Square. 

Draw it.

500

The probability of a homozygous cross with heterozygous cross.

What is 100% dominant or 50- homozygous and 50-heterozygous.
