|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| homozygous | having identical alleles for a given trait
🗑

||||
| heterozygous | having 2 different alleles for a given trait
🗑

||||
| recessive | trait that is masked by the dominant allele
🗑

| dominant | trait that is visible
🗑

||||
| genetics | the area of science that studies heredity
🗑

| genotype | genetic makeup of an individual
🗑
|
||||
| phenotype | observed traits described in words
🗑
|
||||
| hybrid | a heterozygous individual
🗑
|
||||
| gene | a specific trait
🗑
|
||||
| allele | one of two or more possible forms of a gene
🗑
|
||||
| Mendel | the "father" of genetics
🗑

||||
| Punnett square | a method used to establish the probabilities of the result of a genetic cross
🗑
|
||||
| dihybrid cross | TtBb X TtBb
🗑
|
||||
| homozygous dominant | TT
🗑
|
||||
| homozygous recessive | tt
🗑
|
||||
| heterozygous | Tt
🗑
|
||||
| intermediate inheritance | blending (red + white = pink)
🗑
|
||||
| principle of independent assortment | traits located on different chromosomes sort out independent of one another
🗑
|
||||
| principle of dominance and recessiveness | if a dominant gene is present, it will show up. Both alleles have to be recessive to show recessive.
🗑
|
||||
| principle of the law of segregation | recessive traits can show up generations later when the recessive alleles pair up again
🗑
