Question
Answer
The study of how traits are studied   Genetics  
🗑
Structures in a cell's nucleus that are made of DNA (the genetic material).   Chromosomes  
🗑
A distinguishing characteristic or quality; eye color, face shape.   Traits  
🗑
The passing of traits from parents to offspring.   Heredity  
🗑
A type of reproduction (regeneration, budding, binary fission, vegetative propagation) in which a new organism is produced by 1 PARENT!! with identical DNA to the parent.   Asexual Reproduction  
🗑
A type of asexual reproduction that produces a bud that breaks away from the organism to live in its own   Budding  
🗑
A type of asexual reproduction, uses cell division to regrow body parts.   Regeneration  
🗑
An organism spitting, making 2 identical organisms.   Binary Fission  
🗑
The ability of plants to reproduce by producing new plants from existing vegetative structures.   Vegetative Propagation  
🗑

🗑
A type of reproduction in which 2 PARENTS!! form a unique offspring (offspring is diverse)   Sexual Reproduction  
🗑
2 Alleles in a gene pair are the SAME!! for a particular trait (EX: rr or RR) (can also be clarified as purebreds)   Homozygous  
🗑
2 Alleles in a gene pair are DIFFERENT!! for a particular trait. (EX: Rr) ( can also be clarified as hybrids)   Heterozygous  
🗑

🗑
An organisms genetic makeup, or alleles for a trait.   Genotype  
🗑
Physical appearance & behavior of an organism because of the genes it has.   Phenotype  
🗑
Another name for heterozygous, alleles for a trait that are different.   Hybrid  
🗑
