| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Genes are found where? | Chromosomes |
| Meiosis | Reproduction of sex cells |
| Heredity | Passing of traits from Parent to Offspring |
| Difference Between Meiosis and Mitosis | Meiosis is reproduction of SEX CELLS and Mitosis is COPYING OF CELLS |
| Genotype | Inherited combo of alleles |
| Phenotype | Physical Appearence |
| Punnett Square | Tool used to visualize all possible combos of alleles from parents |
| Carry Heredity Instructions | Genes |
| True-Breeding Plant | Always produces offspring with same traits |
| Self-Pollinating Plant | Contains male and female reproductive systems |
| Gregor Mendel | Discovered heredity |
| Probability | Mathematical Chance something will happen |
| Female Sex CHromosomes | XX |
| Male Sex Chromosomes | XY |
| Males.. | Determine the sex of the offspring |
| Dominant Trait | Trait observed when one dominant trait for the characteristic is inherited |
| Recessive Trait | Only observed wen two recessive alleles for the characteristic is inherited |
| Heterozygous | Different forms of a particular gene ; Bb |
| Homozygous | Same for of a particular gene ; BB |
| Why were Peas good to experiment on for Mendel? | They grow quickly,self-pollinating, and contain both male and female reproductive systems |
| What are other ways of pollination? | Pollination by animals and wind |
| Walter Sutton | Proposed that Genes are Located On Chromosomes |
| Phases of Mitosis | Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telephase |
