|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Autosome | In humans, chromosomes 1-22. Matching pairs of chromosomes.
🗑
|
||||
| carrier | A heterozygous individual who appears normal, but genotypically possesses a recessive gene for a potentially harmful gene.
🗑
|
||||
| codominant alleles | Equal expression causes the phenotypes of both homozygous parent organisms to be produced in the heterozygous offspring.
🗑
|
||||
| hybrid | Offspring produced when two varieties or closely related individuals are mated;often done to increase size or vigor.
🗑
|
||||
| inbreeding | Mating between closely related individuals to produce pure results;however it sometimes can have undesirable results.
🗑
|
||||
| incomplete dominance | the inheritance pattern in which the phenotype of the heterozygote is intermediate to the two homozygous parents. Neither allele is strong enough to mask the other, so they combine.
🗑
|
||||
| multiple alleles | Some organisms such as flowers or rabbits can come in many different colors.The genetic trait for color is said to have this.
🗑
|
||||
| pedigree | A family tree; A graphic representation showing patterns of inheritance in a family or breeding group.
🗑
|
||||
| polygenic inheritance | A trait such as skin color which is affected by the combination of several different genes.
🗑
|
||||
| sex chromosome | In humans, Chromosome pair 23.;XX or XY
🗑
|
||||
| sex-linked trait | An inherited characteristic, such as color blindness, controlled by genes located on chromosomes 23.
🗑
|
||||
| testcross | A breeding technique used to determine if an individual is homozygous dominant or heterozygous for a particular trait.
🗑

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.
