Definition of a Dominant gene.
What is the more common trait?
100
The definition - a gene that has two identical alleles on a homologous chromosome.
What is homozygous?
100
Genotype definition. 
What is the genetic constitution of one organism. 
100
What is the definition of a carrier?

What is an individual possessing an unexpressed, recessive trait?

100

In genetics, a type of grid used to show the gametes of each parent and their possible offspring; a type of grid that can indicate all the possible outcomes of a genetic cross. 

What is punnett squares?
200
This trait is know to have a less likely chance to show up in the 2nd generation. 
What is a recessive trait? 
200
A gene that has two different alleles. 
What is heterozygous?
200
This is known for the observable characteristics of an organism. 
What is phenotype?
200

Definition- the principle stating that when two or more characteristics are inherited, individual hereditary factors assort independently during gamete production, giving different traits an equal opportunity of occurring together.


What is the law of independent assortment?
200
Name the definition for the word Pedigree.

What is a genealogical table, chart, list, or record, especially of a purebred animal?


300
This trait is the most commonly found trait in future generations and is most likely found in the 2nd generation. 


What is a dominant trait?
300
This has two different alleles; for example (Aa)
What is heterozygous?
300
Fill in the blank. 

This is in charge of one specific gene. If two organisms are known to have even the slightest difference in their genes, there are known to have different (blank).

What is genotype?
300
Fill in the blank. Codominance: of or relating to (blank 1) (blank 2) alleles that are fully expressed in a heterozygous individual.
What is (1) two and (2) different?
300
This is a chart/graph that is only specifically used for purebred animals. Not for hybrid animals. 
What is pedigree?
400
Name which color flower was the dominant trait and which was recessive when Mendel was doing his study. 
What is purple (dominant) and white (recessive) 
400

Definition- The offspring of two plants or animals of a different species or variation. 

Example- A mule which is a combination of a horse and a donkey. 

What is a hybrid?
400

Definition of allele. Example, Like Mendel's study of pea plants, the purple flower was known to have a dominant allele and the white flower was known as the recessive allele

What is the alternative forms of a gene that are found at the same place on a chromosome?
400

 For example,  A snapdragon flower that is pink as a result of cross-pollination between a red flower and a white flower when neither the white or the red alleles are dominant. It then turns pink. Explain why this is an example for incomplete dominance. 


What is because since there is no dominant trait, the two recessive traits come together to form a different color? ( anything along those lines )
400
Used to show the gametes of the parents and the possible offspring from the parents.
What is punnett squares?
500
Definition - the passing on mental or physical characteristics to future generations.
What is heredity?
500
Result of unmixed breeding. This can include animals and humans. The result will be very similar to the parent. Not like hybrids, in which the offspring is a combination of both. 
What is purebred?
500
Fill in the blank. During the process of meiosis, the process of the law of segregation comes into play, where the allele pairs (blank) during gamete formation.
What is separate?
500

This is where the aggregate of surrounding things, conditions, or influences affecting a given organism at any time. Name the term that matches the definition.

What is environmental influence?
500
Fill in the blank. A square diagram used to determine the outcome of a particular (blank 1) or (blank 2) experiment. 
What is (1) cross and (2) breeding?
