| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Which of the following states that heritable factors retain their identity generation after generation? | particulate hypothesis of independence |
| Which term describes an individual with 2 identical alletes for a particular chapter? | homozygus |
| If you want to know the genotype of a pea plant that has purple flowers which would you perform? | test cross |
| What is the predicted phenotypic ratio of the F2 generation of a dihybrid cross? | 9:3:3:1 |
| AB blood type in humans is a result of what? | sex-linked inheritance |
| What is the blending hypothesis? | It is the mixing of different traits and groups to figure out the outcome |
| What are 3 terms that describe genotype? | homozygous dominant, homozygous recessive, heterozygous or hybrid |
| hybrid | a homozygous dominant and a homozygous recessive |
| monohybrid cross | a pairing in which a parent plant differs in only 1 category |
| allele | alternate form of genes |
| heterozygous | having both a dominant and recessive gene for a trait |
| dominant | when one gene is overpowered like the purple is more |
| recessive | the smaller letter that only comes up after dominant |
| punnent square | a square where you figure out the genes of something |
| phenotype | it is an observal trait |
| genotype | it is a genetic makeup |
| test cross | breeds an individual of unknown genotype but dominant phenotype with a homozygous recessive individual |
| dihybrid cross | mating of 2 organisms that differ in 2 characters |
| What is the difference between genotypes and phenotypes? | Phenotypes observe traits and genotypes make up genetic combinations |
| What is a dihybrid cross | When something has 2 characteristics like RY and ry |
