Question
Answer
genetics   field of biology devoted to understanding characteristic transmission  
🗑
heredity   transmitional characteristics from parents to offspring  
🗑
trait   a catagory within alternate characteristics can be observed  
🗑
cross pollination   reproduction involving two separate flowers and xsomething to move the pollin  
🗑
p generation   each parental generation  
🗑
f1 generation   the first offspring of the p1 generation  
🗑
f2 generation   the offspring of the f1  
🗑
dominant   the trait which is seen and dominates the recessive  
🗑
recessive   has no observable effect on an organisms appearance when with dominant  
🗑
law of segregation   states that a pair of factors is segregated during formation of a gamete  
🗑
law of independent assortment   states that factors for different characteristics ar edistributed to gametes independetly  
🗑
alleler   each of several forms of a gene  
🗑
genotype   the makeup of an organism. consists of alleles  
🗑
phenotype   the appearance of an organism as a result of its genotype  
🗑
homozygous   when both alleles of a pair are alike  
🗑
heterozygous   when the two alleles in a pair are different  
🗑
monohybrid cross   a cross between individuals that involves one pair of contrasting traits  
🗑
the steps involved in mendels experiments on piece?   1growing plants that are pure 2cross pollinating them with contrasting traits 3.self pollonating f1 generation to make the f2 generation  
🗑
what the difference between a gene and an allele   alleles are each of several forms of a gene  
🗑
will both alleles from an allele pair be passed on to each gamyte which law describes this   no the law of segregation  
🗑
is the passage of alleles for 2 different traits dependent on each other which law describes   no law of independent assortment  
🗑
does the law of indpendent assortment work for genes located near each other on the same chromosome   no  
🗑
how is molecular genetics different from mendelian genetics   mendelian was based off of phenotypes  
🗑
heterozygeous   Aa 2 different versions of genae 2 traits expressed  
🗑
homozygous dominant   AA both chromosomes have identical copies dominant alleles  
🗑
homozygous recessive   aa both chromosomes have identical copies of recessive alleles  
🗑
in a test cross what do you mate mystery organisms with   homozygous recessive  
🗑
this is a classic phenotypic ratio of a heterozygous dihybrid cross   9:3 3:1  
🗑
a possible advantage of this disease is a resistence to malaria   sickle cell anemia  
🗑
this law states that one allele from each allele pair will be randomly passed on to each gamyte   law of segregation  
🗑
xlinked blood disease that effects clotting ability   hemophilia  
🗑
extra fingers   poly adactily  
🗑
single allele dominant degenerative disease   (blank)  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
