QuestionAnswer
dominant Masks the expression of the recessive trait.
F1 generation The first filial generation; offspring of the P or parental generation.
F2 generation The second filial generation; offspring from the self-pollination of the F1 generation.
gametes Haploid cells involved in sexual reproduction, such egg and sperm.
genetics The study of inheritance.
Punnett square Visual representation of a genetic cross that helps predict the expected ratios in the offspring, first described by Reginald C. Punnett in the early 20th century.
recessive Expression is masked by the dominant factor (allele); only expressed if both factors are recessive.
autosomes The chromosome other than the sex chromosomes.
carrier A person who is heterozygous for a recessive genetic disorder; the person does not have the disease but can pass the disease allele to the next generation.
sex-linked trait A trait that is due to a gene located on a sex chromosome, usually the X-chromosome.
allele An alternative form of a gene.
co-dominance A pattern of inheritance where both alleles are equally expressed.
genotype The genetic makeup of a cell or organism, defined by certain alleles for a particular trait.
homozygous Having identical alleles for a particular trait.
heterozygous Having two different alleles for a particular trait.
incomplete dominance A pattern of inheritance where the offspring has a phenotype that is halfway between the two parents’ phenotypes.
phenotype The physical appearance that is a result of the genotype.
polygenic inheritance A pattern of inheritance where the trait is controlled by many genes and each dominant allele has an additive effect.

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.
