Genetic combinations    
🗑
Monohybrid cross   is a mating between two individuals with different alleles at one genetic locus of interest.  
🗑
Dihybrid cross   a cross between two pure lines (varieties, strains) that differ in two observed traits.  
🗑
Non-Mendelian inheritance   is a general term that refers to any pattern of inheritance in which traits do not segregate in accordance with Mendel's laws.  
🗑
[Punnett Square]   a diagram that is used to predict an outcome of a particular cross or breeding experiment  
🗑
Gregor Mendel   was a German-speaking Moravian scientist and Augustinian friar who gained posthumous fame as the founder of the modern science of genetics  
🗑
Trait   a distinguishing quality or characteristic, typically one belonging to a person.  
🗑
Allele   alternative form that a single gene may have for a particular trait.  
🗑
Dominant   Mendel's name for a specific trait that appeared in the F1 generation  
🗑
Heterozygous   organism with two different alleles for a specific trait.  
🗑
Homozygous   organism with two of the same alleles for a specific trait.  
🗑
Recessive   Mendel's name for a specific trait hidden or masked in the F1 generation.  
🗑
Gene   functional unit that controls inherited trait expression that is passed on from one generation to another generation.  
🗑
Genotype   an organism's allele pairs.  
🗑
Genotypic ratio   Pattern of offspring distribution according to genotype (i.e. the genetic constitution determining the phenotype of an organism)  
🗑
Outcome   the way a thing turns out; a consequence.  
🗑
Cross   a method of hybridization or the hybrid so produced.  
🗑

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.
