Question
Answer
One gene affects multiple characteristics.   show
🗑
show Incomplete dominance  
🗑
In the heterozygous condition, only one allele (dominant) is expressed.   show
🗑
Heterozygote expresses both alleles/both phenotypes.   show
🗑
show Complete dominance  
🗑
show Incomplete penetrance  
🗑
Autosomal dominant allele. Individuals with dominant allele can ocassionaly have normal # of digits, but have affected children.   show
🗑
% of individuals having a particular genotype that actually express the associated phenotype.   show
🗑
show Variable expressivity  
🗑
show Lethal alleles  
🗑
show Multiple alleles  
🗑
More than one gene contributes to a single phenotype.   show
🗑
One gene masks the effects of another gene. Can be dominant or recessive. (Albinism)   show
🗑
Test to determine whether two different mustations are at the same locus or different loci. Cross homozygous individuals with different mutations.   show
🗑
show If same locus  
🗑
show If differnt loci  
🗑
Not X-linked. dominant in male; recessive in females. Difference due to presence of male sex hormones.   show
🗑
show Sex-limited traits  
🗑
show Cytoplasmic inheritance  
🗑
Genotype inherited from both parents but phenotype is determoned by mothers genotyope.   show
🗑
Differential expression of gene depending of whether it was inherited from mother or father/   show
🗑
Genetic trait becomes either more stongly expressed or expressed at an earlier age as it is passed from generation to genra   show
🗑
Environmental factors p[roduce a phenotype that mimics the phenotype of another genotype.   show
🗑
Few distinct phenotypes   show
🗑
show Inheritance of continuos characteristics  
🗑
show Sex determination  
🗑
Different btw sexes   show
🗑
any non-sex chromosomes   show
🗑
show XX-XO XX=female XO-male  
🗑
All gametes contain the same type of sex chromosome. always passing an X chromosome to their offspring.   show
🗑
show Heterogametic  
🗑
show XX-XY XX=female Xy=male  
🗑
Small region of both X and Y chromosomes carry same genes.Allow for homologous pairing during meiosis.   show
🗑
Sex determination of birds/reptiles   show
🗑
show Haploidiploidy  
🗑
No difference in chromosomes btw sexes. Sex is determined by genotype at one or more gene loci.   show
🗑
Detrmined by genes and happen to be on sex chromosomes   show
🗑
show 8 chromosomes ( 3 pairs of autosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes. female=1.0 male=0.5  
🗑
Abnormal segregation of chromosomes during meiosis I and II   show
🗑
show Turner sundrome  
🗑
47,XXY   show
🗑
47,XXX   show
🗑
show Jacob syndrome  
🗑
Gonads are undifferentiated and have both male and female reproductive ducts.   show
🗑
sex determining region on Y chromosome. Develops neutral gonads into testes. In the absence, gonads develop into ovaries and male ducts degenerate. Phenotype is female. menstruation does not occur. No internal reproductive organs. Karyotype is male.   show
🗑
show Barr body  
🗑
Y linked gene. All males are affected within family; mo affected females.   show
🗑
Is only expressed on inactive X. Produces RNA molecule that coats chromosome. Some genes on 'inactive' X are kept active.   show
🗑
inherited factor that codes for a specific characteristic.   show
🗑
Physical location of a gene on a chromosome.   show
🗑
Alternate forms of a gene. (what specifically the gene codes for). Ex: black hair, blond hair.   show
🗑
show Genotype  
🗑
Observable characteristics. Bb is brown eyes.   show
🗑
All offsprings have the same traits.   show
🗑
A cross where one gene locus is tracked. Ex: Aa*Aa   show
🗑
show Dihybrid cross  
🗑
show Reciprocal cross  
🗑
Each diploid organism has 2 alleles for each gene. Alleles segregate from each other randomly in gamete formation.   show
🗑
Probability of 2 or more independent events occurring together. "AND"   show
🗑
Probability of having 2 or more mutually exclusive events occur together. "Either/Or"   show
🗑
Two copies of an abnormal gene must be present in order for the disease or trait to develop. Ex: Albinism   show
🗑
Term #=n+1 First term has a^n, second term a^(n-1)b (a always loses 1; b gains 1) For coefficient 1st term=1, 2nd term=same power as binomial, 3rd term= multiply preceding coefficient by exponent of a in the 2nd term, then divide by term #.   show
🗑
show Test cross  
🗑
Indicates probability that deviation btw observed and expected ratio is due to chance alone.   show
🗑
show Blended inheritance  
🗑
show Prokaryotic  
🗑
show Eukaryotic  
🗑
show 3 components of a functional chromosome  
🗑
2 identical copies of DNA   show
🗑
Protein complex attached   show
🗑
has 2 copies of each chromosome   show
🗑
show Haploid cell  
🗑
show Telocentric  
🗑
That portion of the cell cycle between cell divisions in which the cell grows, performs its required functions and duplicates DNA and important organelles in preparation for cell division   show
🗑
First phase of interphase in which the cell is growing   show
🗑
Second phase of interphase in which DNA is replicated   show
🗑
Last phase of interphase in which cell organelles are duplicated in preparation for cell division   show
🗑
The first stage of cell division in which the nucleus divides. Mitosis results in the formation of two daughter cells with exactly the same genetic information as the parent cell. Mitosis results in the production of two identical diploid cells.   show
🗑
show Prophase  
🗑

🗑
The third stage of mitosis in which the sister chromatids are separated and one of each is pulled to each end of the cell   show
🗑
The final stage of mitosis in whcih the chromosomes begin to disperse, the nuclear envelope re-forms around each cluster of chromosomes and the cell is ready for cytokinesis.   show
