| also known as a trait that is easily seen or measured | phenotype |
| a male genotype | XXY |
| identical alleles are said to be | homozygous |

| variant form of a gene | allele |
| the appearance of a trait or health condition that develops as a result of the ways the genes are expressed | phenotype |
| the combination of gene variations for a particular gene | genotype |
| in a heterozygote, the gene that determines the phenotype is known as the ________allele | dominant |
