the genetic traits transmitted from parent to offspring | Inheritance |
a specific sequence of nucleotides in DNA that is the functional unit of inheritance controlling the transmission and expression of one or more traits | Gene |
a gene pair are fully expressed resulting in offspring with a phenotype that is neither dominant nor recessive | Codominance |
a trait that will always appear in the offspring if one of the parents contributes it | Dominant trait |
phenotype in which the expressed physical trait is a combination of the phenotypes of both alleles | Incomplete dominance |
