| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| capital capital | homozygous dominant |
| capital lowercase | heterozygous |
| lowercase lowercase | homozygous recessive |
| allele | one letter |
| genotype | shows the alleles, what the letters look like |
| phenotype | physical trait expressed |
| dominant trait | if present will be expressed and masks the recessive |
| recessive trait | expressed if the dominant is not present |
| RR called | homozygous dominant |
| Rr called | heterozygous |
| rr called | homozygous recessive |
| hybrid | both alleles different |
| pure bred | both alleles the same |
| punnett square | shows possible outcomes of genetic cross |
| RR x rr genotype percents? | 100% heterozygous |
| Rr x Rr genotype percents? | 25% homozygous dominant, 50% heterozygous, 25% homozygous recessive |
| RR x Rr genotype percents? | 50% RR 50% Rr |
