What is Mendel's Law of Segregation? | Each organism contains 2 factors for each trait, and the factors segregate during formation of gametes so that each gamete contains only one factor for each trait. |
What is an allele and what kinds are there? | It is an alternative form of a gene. Dominant alleles, recessive alleles, gene locus, homozygous (dominant recessive), heterozygous. |
What is the difference between a genotype and a phenotype? | A genotype is what one's genes say they are where as a phenotype is what one actually looks like. |
What are the three exchanges of genetic material? | a) synapsis b) crossing over c) Genetic recombination |

Which chromosome is for a guy and which is for a girl? | Guy- XY Girl- XX |
You cannot have a population without what key factor? | Genetic Diversity |
Three possible ways for variation to act on populations.. first? | 1. Gene Mutations |

Two divisions of genes? | 1. Monomorphic 2. Polymorphic |
How do you break up the polymorphism genes? | A - 5 Alleles B - 1 Allele C - 2 Alleles D - 1 Allele E - 1 Allele |
How do you break up Heterozygosity Individuals? | A1 --- A1 A2 --- A3 A1 --- A3 A2 --- A4 A2 --- A2 |
Genetic Variability is expressed in what three ways.. the first? | 1. The fraction of genes are polymorphic |
Genetic Variability is expressed in what three ways.. the second? | 2. The average number of alleles for polymorphic genes |
Genetic Variability is expressed in what three ways.. the third? | 3. The average number of genes that are heterozygous |
Non-Random Mating includes what? | Inbreeding, assortative mating, sexual selection |
What are the five important things about the Hardy-Weinbery Principle.. the first? | 1. Large Population |

What are the five important things about the Hardy-Weinbery Principle.. the fifth? | 5. No natural selection |
What is the controversy of evolution? | changes views, more than science; disciplines, and battle of worlds |
Impact Of Theory | Catatrophism --- uniformitarianism Young Earth --- old earth Special creation --- evolution via common descent creator --- strict materialism |
What are egg and sperm cells produced by and what does that mean? | Meiosis. Therefore, each gamete can only have one gene for each trait. EX: B or b |
What is a monohybrid? | Plants that are heterozygous for a single trait |
What is a dihybrid? | Plants that are heterozygous for two traits |
The first thing you have to realize is that we get two copies of each ____, one from each parent. | gene |
The second important thing to realize is that the same gene comes in different "flavors," called ____ | alleles |
First crucial equation when it comes to genetics? | p + q = 1 |
