QuestionAnswer
identical alleles in a gene pair homozygous
chromosomes that do not carry genes that determine sex autosomes
variant form of nucleotide building block of a gene alleles
The physical traits that appear in an individual as a result of its gentic make up. phenotype
traits determined by more than one gene also influenced by environment polygenic
complete set of genetic instructions for an organism genome
single genetic disorder produce several symptoms a phenomenon pleiotropy
the branch of biology that studies heredity and variation in organisms genetics
born with wrong number of chromosomes plus an extra one trisomy
patterns in which genes are transmitted in families, trait is dominate ore recessive, autosomal or carried on a sex chromosome Modes of inheritance
different genes producing the same phenotype genetic heterogeneity
looking at the human body, multiple, interacating genes Genomics
allele whose expression is masked recessive
all the other genes in the body that are not sex-linked. autosomal
an allele that is a change from wild type producing uncommon phenotype mutant
allele who action masks that of another allele dominant
two different alleles for a gene heterozygous
focuses on proteins that specific cell types produce Proteomics
diagram showing family relationships, genotypes and phenotypes- circle female, square male pedigree
a condition in which a trait in an individual is intermediate between the phenotype of the individual's two parents because the dominant allele is unable to express itself fully incomplete dominance
different alleles that are both expressed in a heterozygote codominate

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.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
