The Father of Genetics;Discovered genetics by breeding peas in his garden and cross pollinating plants Gregor Mendel
The scientific study of heredity Genetics
he passing of traits from parents to offspring Heredity
Taking the pollen from another plant and rubbed it on the pistil of a different plant from which the stames had been removed (so they cant self pollinate) Cross Pollination
always produces offspring with the same form of a trait as the parent Purebred
The opposite of Purebred with the opposite form of a trait as the parent Hybrid
Name given to the offspring of the first cross Filial (F1) generation
the factors that control each trait that exist in pairs (Female and Male together) Pairs
the factors that control traits Genes
The different forms of a gene (such as tall or short, wrinkled or smooth) Alleles
One whose trait always shows up when the allele is present Dominant Allele
is masked (or covered up) when the dominant allele is present. They only show up if a dominant allele is not present Recessive Allele
Can be used to calculate the probability that offspring will have a certain combination of alleles Punnett Square
The physical appearance of the offspring. (ex. Tall or Short) Phenotype
The genetic makeup or allele combination of the offspring. Genotype
(purebred) 2 of the same alleles TT or tt Homozygous
