heterozygous   having non identical alleles for a trait  
homozygous   having identical alleles for a trait.  
phenotype   outward appearance of an organism  
probability   the likelihood a specific event will occur  
Punnett Square   A diagram used to predict possible genetic outcomes  
genotypic ratio   The ratio of genotypes  
phenotypic ratio   the ratio of phenotypes  
testcross   when an individual of unknown genotype is crossed with a homozygous recessive.  
complete dominance   When a dominant allele masks the recessive.
