definition
term
a type pf cell division that reduces the number of chromosomes; therefore, it is referred to as reduction division   meiosis  
🗑
the DNA on chromosomes that is arranged in the segments that control the production of proteins   genes  
🗑
an alternative form of a single gene passed from generation to generation   allele  
🗑
the form of trait that appeared in the F1 generation a gene that will always show itself   dominant  
🗑
the form of trait that was masked in the F1 generation; gene that is overshadowed   recessive  
🗑
the organisms allele pairs   genotype  
🗑
the observable characteristics or outward expression of an allele pair   phenotype  
🗑
an organism that has two of the same alleles for a= a particular trait   homozygous  
🗑
an organism that has 2 different alleles for a particular trait   heterozygous  
🗑
states that two alleles for each trait separate during meiosis   law of segregation  
🗑
states that random distribution of alleles occurs during gamete formation   law of independent assortment  
🗑
the P generation   parent generation  
🗑
used to predict the possible offspring of a cross between two known genotypes   punnet square  
🗑
phenotypic traits arise from the interaction of multiple pairs of genes   polygenic traits  
🗑
both alleles are expressed in the heterozygous condition   codominance  
🗑
the heterozygous phenotype is an intermediate phenotype between the 2 homozygous phenotypes   incomplete dominance  
🗑
a cross that involves hybrids for a single trait   monohybrid cross  
🗑
a cross that examines simultaneous inheritance of two or more traits in the same plant   dihybrid cross  
🗑
two cells from different parents unite to produce first cell of new division   sexual reproduction  
🗑
generation in a breeding experiment that is successive to a mating between parents of two distinctively different but usually relatively pure genotypes   filial generation  
🗑
some traits will be dominant over others    
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
