  1. 3. Each gene has different forms, known as alleles, which determine variations in traits.
  2. 5. the basic units of heredity and are found on chromosomes within the nucleus of a cell.
  3. 6. occurs during meiosis, when genetic material is shuffled between chromosomes, increasing genetic diversity.
  4. 9. if an organism inherits different alleles
  5. 10. the observable characteristics resulting from that genotype the observable characteristics resulting from that genotype

  1. 1. Or means heredity which is the biological process by which parents pass on genetic information to their offspring through their gametes
  2. 2. the process by which the information encoded in a gene is turned into a function.
  3. 4. The combination of alleles that an individual inherits
  4. 5. the branch of biology concerned with the study of inheritance, including the interplay of genes, DNA variation and their interactions with environmental factors
  5. 7. the passing of traits from one generation to the next, plays a crucial role in shaping characteristics in both humans and other living organisms.
  6. 8. if an organism inherits the same allele from both parents
