The Hardy-Weinberg equation is used to predict gene frequencies in a population. If the prediction does not match the population, this indicates that this phenomenon is occurring.

Mendel was working at this "job"
Monk
200
Mono means this
One
200
The passing on of characters to ones offspring
heredity
200
A Punnett square is used to determine genotype and phenotype ratios of the (parents/ offspring)
offspring

H-W equilibrium needs these five factors: large population (no genetic drift), no mutations, no migration (no gene flow) and ...., ..... (Name the last two factors)
Random mating and no natural selection

Hybrid means this
cross or different traits

Section of DNA that stores information for a single trait

If tall is dominant to short, what is the phenotype and genotype ratio of a cross between a heterozygous tall and a short plant?
Phenotype 2 tall: 2 short
Genotype 2 Tt: 2 tt

Mendel noticed that when a purple flower plant was crossed with a white flower plant all the offspring had purple flowers. This led him to defining this law.
The law of dominance
400
To start his experiments on peas, Mendel created true breeding plants. This meant their genotype was... for that trait.
homozygous
400
Different versions of a gene
alleles
400
List the possible gamete genotypes of a parent AaBb (Hint *FOIL)
AB, aB, Ab, ab

2pq is the frequency of
heterozygous individuals (Aa)
500
After observing the inheritance of two traits, Mendel saw that plants could inherit all combinations of both traits (purple flowers and tall, purple flowers and short, white flowers and tall, white flowers and short). This led him to propose this law.
The law of independent assortment
500
In Mendel's experiments, this resulting generation was 100% heterozygous, all showing the dominant phenotype.
F1 generation
500
This term describes a genotype that has two different alleles for a gene.
heterozygous
500
The phenotype ratio of a dihybrid cross between two heterozygous parents (AaBb x AaBb)
9:3:3:1

Cystic fibrosis is a recessive disorder with an allele frequency of 0.1 In a population of 100 people, how many would have the disorder?
