QuestionAnswer
In humans the trait of having freckles (F) is dominant to not having freckles (f). Which genotype and phenotype are correctly paired? Ff—freckles
The allele for tasting PTC (T) is dominant to the allele for nontasting PTC (t). Which of these sets of parents can produce offspring who cannot taste PTC? a heterozygous male who can taste PTC and a heterozygous female who can taste PTC
What results in the separation of chromosomes randomly and independently during the production of sperm and egg cells (meiosis)? independent assortment
The allele for attached earlobes (e) is recessive to the allele for unattached earlobes (E). A woman with the genotype (Ee) and a man with the genotype (ee) have a child. What is the probability that the child is heterozygous for this trait? 50%
During prophase I, sections of homologous chromosomes switch places. What is this process called? crossing over
Sex cells are produced during meiosis
A sperm cell of a fruit fly has 4 chromosomes. How many chromosomes are in the cells of a fruit fly’s leg? 8
How many chromosomes are in a normal human skin cell? 46
Which of these represents the number of chromosomes in cells before and after the process of meiosis? 2n -> n
One parent is homozygous dominant for brown hair (BB). The other parent is heterozygous for brown hair (Bb). What is the probability that the offspring will have brown hair? 100%
In guinea pigs, the allele for black fur (B) is dominant. A homozygous guinea pig (BB) is crossed with a heterozygous guinea pig (Bb). What are the phenotypes of the parents? Both parents have black fur.
Which processes of cell division creates genetic diversity? meiosis
What process produces male and female reproductive cells in plants? meiosis
WHAT IS TRAIT? A VARIATION OF A PATICULAR CHARACTER
PARTICULATE HYPOTHESIS SAY THAT : PARENTS PASS ON TO THEIR OFFSPRING SEPARATE AND DISTINCT FACTORS(GENES) THAT ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR INHERITED TRAITS
BIOLOGISTS PROPOSED THE BLENDING HYPOTHESIS WHICH SAY : OFFSPRING WOULD BE A BLEND OF PARENTS TRAITS
BOTH BLENDING AND PARTICULATE HYPOTHESIS TRY TO EXPLAIN THE INHERITANCE OF TRAITS TRUE
PARTICULATE HYPOTHESIS STATES THAT PARENTS PASS ON DISTINCT FACTORS THAT RETAIN THEIR IDENTITIES IN OFFSPRING TRUTH
BLENDING HYPOTHESIS STATES THAT PARENTS' HEREDITARY MATERIAL BLENDS IN THE OFFSPRING
WHAT IS CALL WHEN THE SPERM FROM ONE INDIVIDUAL FERTILIZE THE EGGS OF ANOTHER INDIVIDUAL? CROSS FERTILIZATION
WHAT IS CALL Fusion of male and female sex cells (gametes) produced by the same individual ? SELF FERTILIZATION
WHAT IS THE NAME FOR OFFSPRING OF 2 DIFFERENT TRUE BREEDING VARIETIES LIKE - PARENTAL PLANTS = P GENERATION - HYBRID OFFSPRING = F1 GENERATION ? HYBRIDS
WHAT IS A NAME FOR PARING IN WHICH THE PARENT PLANT DIFFER IN ONLY ONE TRAIT? MONOHYBRID CROSS
ALLELES ARE ALTERNATIVE FORMS OF GENES
HOMOZYGOUS ARE : THE 2 ALLELES FOR A GENE ARE THE SAME DD OR dd

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.
