Inheritance
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What is the passage of traits from parent to offspring ? | It's called Heredity. |
| Is the study of the processes which traits are passed from one generation to another ? | They're the Genetics. |
| This genetics makeup an individual made of two alleles Bb, BB, bb ? | It's a Genotype. |
| The expression of the genotype of an individual ; the physical characteristics of an organisms ? | A Phenotype. |
| The terms used to a genotype that has two identical alleles for a certain trait ? | Is a Homozygous. |
| Is the term used to refer to a genotype has two different alleles for a particular trait ? | It's a Heterozygous. |
| One of a number of different forms of a trait ? | Allele. |
| A trait that is a mixture of a dominant and recessive allele ? | A Hybrid. |
| A traits that's either all dominant or all recessive ? | Pure Breeding is occurred in this process. |
| Describes traits that always have express/show themselves ? | Its is mainly a Dominance. |
| It describes traits that only express themselves when paired with two similar alleles ? | It is always called a Recessive. |
| The segregation of two alleles during the production of alleles by mitosis ? | Segregation |
| It's called Meiosis in this reproduction system ? | The process which gametes are produced by that have 1/2 the number of chromosomes. |
| What is a Punnett Square ? | It is used to predict and compare the offspring produced by a designated cross/mating. |
| What is it called an Independent Assortment ? | They're genes for different traits separate independently during the formation of gametes by meiosis. |
| It is called an Incomplete Dominance ? | Is the blending of the traits of a heterozygous genotype |
| It's called Codominance ? | Is a form of inheritance in which both alleles of a genotype are expressed equally to produce a phenotype |
| A Multiple Alleles ? | Is a gene that have not 2 but 3 forms of the alleles. |
| Traits that are controlled by 2 or more genes ? | A Polygenic. |
| A single gene controls the expression of many traits ? | A Pleiotrophy. |
| A source of genetic variation caused by the unlimited number of possible sperm and egg combinations ? | A random fertilization. |
| What is a Haploid ? | Is half the number of chromosomes normally found in the cells of an organism. |
| what is a Diploid ? | The full number of chromosomes made of one set of chromosomes from each parent. |
