QuestionAnswer
distinct heritable features Characters
different variants traits
cross pollinate two contrasting, true breeding varieties hybridize
true breeding parents P generation
Hybrid offspring F1 generation
alternative version of genes vary somewhat in the sequence of nucleotides at the specific locus of a gene. different alleles
purple, purple. homologous loci may be identical
fully expressed in the organisms appearance dominant allele
has no noticeable effect on the organism's appearance. recessive allele
a sperm egg carries only ____ allele one
separation of alleles into separate gametes is Mendels law of segregation
produce enough enzyme to convert all the monosaccharides into starch and form smooth seeds when they dry both homozygous dominant and heterozygots
an organisms genetic makeup, the info in genes genotype
an organisms physical traits, what it looks like phenotype
predicts the results of a genetic cross between individuals of known genotype. phenotype different genotypes punnett square
mating between an individual phenotype (unknown genotype) and a homozygous recessive individual. testcross
the inheritance of two different characters dyhybrid cross
by looking at two characteristics at once, the alleles for one trait segregate independently of the allele for other traits during gamete formation. law of independent assortment
each character is controlled by a single gene. Each gene has only two alleles, one of which is completely dominant to the other. mendelian inheritance in humans
the inheritance of many human traits follows mendel's principles and the rules of probability. remembering terms
Dominant F: determines phenotype
recessive f: only expressed if no dominant alleles present
homozygous the same alleles
heterozygous different alleles
many human disorders follow the patterns of: inheritance
show simple inherited patterns, are controlled by genes on autosomes patterns of inheritance
heterozygotes show a distinct intermediate phenotype, not seen in homozygotes. this is not blended inheritance because the traits are distinct in further crosses. incomplete dominance
two alleles affect the phenotype in a separate, distinguishable ways, both are expressed codominance
A and B are codominant, both equally expressed, O is recessive. multiple alleles
a gene at one locus (location) alters the phenotypic expression of a gene at a second locus (location). epistasis
a single gene may affect phenotype in many ways. pleiotropy
a phenotypic characteristic can be controlled by more than one gene: Polygenic inheritance
Making a copy of a strand of DNA, using the strand as a template for forming the new strand Enzymes use each strand as a template to assemble the new strands DNA replication
Double helix unwinds Steps of replication 1
two strands separate Steps of replication 2
Free nucleotides line up one at a time along each strand Steps of replication 3
sugar phosphate backbone froms on daughter strands Steps of replication 4
a large team of enzymes and other proteins carries out... DNA replication

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.
