Question
Answer
Trait   A distinguishing characteristic passed down from parent to offspring  
🗑
Monohybrid Cross   A genetic cross that only deals with one set of characteristics  
🗑
Dihybrid Cross   A genetic cross dealing with two sets of characteristics  
🗑
Cross-pollination   The fertilization of a flower with the pollen of another flower  
🗑
Self-pollination   Pollination of a flower by pollen from the same flower  
🗑
Dominant   The characteristic expressed even in the presence of a recessive gene  
🗑
Recessive   Characteristic that is only expressed in the homologous recessive condition  
🗑
Alleles   One of a pair of genes that have the same position on homologous chromosomes.  
🗑
Homozygous/Purebred   Both alleles in one organism are the same (RR)(rr)  
🗑
Heterozygous/Hybrid   Two different alleles at the same position on homologous chromosomes (Rr)  
🗑
Incomplete Dominance   Occurs in F1 chromosome Produces phenotype combination of the phenotype of the two parents  
🗑
Phenotype   based on Genotype The physical expression of an organisms genes  
🗑
Genotype   The genetic makeup of an individual organism  
🗑
Pedigree   A chart of the genetic history of a family over several generations  
🗑
Sex-Linked Traits   Traits located on the sex chromosome  
🗑
Gregor Mendel   Father of Genetics Discovered self vs cross pollination Discovered traits come from parents Experimented with peas to test pure vs hybrid  
🗑
Law of Dominance   parents with pure traits will only have 1 offspring with their form of the trait  
🗑
Law ofSegregation   during gamete formation, the two alleles responsible for a trait separate from each other  
🗑
Law of Independent Assortment   alleles for different traits are distributed to sex cells independently of one another  
🗑


   

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.
