Cross-pollination The fertilization of a flower with the pollen of another flower
Self-pollination Pollination of a flower by pollen from the same flower
Dominant The characteristic expressed even in the presence of a recessive gene
Recessive Characteristic that is only expressed in the homologous recessive condition
Alleles One of a pair of genes that have the same position on homologous chromosomes.
Homozygous/Purebred Both alleles in one organism are the same (RR)(rr)
Heterozygous/Hybrid Two different alleles at the same position on homologous chromosomes (Rr)
Incomplete Dominance Occurs in F1 chromosome Produces phenotype combination of the phenotype of the two parents
Phenotype based on Genotype The physical expression of an organisms genes
Genotype The genetic makeup of an individual organism
Pedigree A chart of the genetic history of a family over several generations
Sex-Linked Traits Traits located on the sex chromosome
Gregor Mendel Father of Genetics Discovered self vs cross pollination Discovered traits come from parents Experimented with peas to test pure vs hybrid
Law of Dominance parents with pure traits will only have 1 offspring with their form of the trait

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
