Across
  1. 3. how a trait appears or is expressed.
  2. 6. the process of making mRNA from DNA
  3. 7. a different form of a gene codominance an inheritance pattern in which both alleles can be observed in a phenotype.
  4. 9. the study of how traits are passed from parents to offspring.
  5. 12. the abbreviation for deoxyribonucleic acid, an organism's genetic material.
  6. 15. the term describing the two alleles that control the phenotype of a trait.
  7. 16. ribonucleic acid, a type of nucleic acid that carries the code for making proteins from the nucleus to the cytoplasm.
  8. 17. a genetic factor that blocks another genetic factor gene a section of DNA on a chromosome that has genetic information for one trait.
  9. 18. a molecule made of a nitrogen base, a sugar, and a phosphate group
  10. 19. the passing of traits from parents to offspring.
  11. 20. an inheritance pattern in which the offspring's phenotype is a blend of the parents' phenotypes.
  12. 21. a genotype in which the two alleles of a gene are different.

  1. 1. how a trait appears or is expressed
  2. 2. the process of copying a DNA molecule to make another DNA molecule.
  3. 4. a genetic condition an inheritance pattern in which multiple genes determine the phenotype of a trait.
  4. 5. a model used to predict possible genotypes and phenotypes of offspring.
  5. 8. a genotype in which the two alleles of a gene are the same.
  6. 10. when both alleles can be observed in a phenotype
  7. 11. a permanent change in the sequence of DNA, or the nucleotides, in a gene or a chromosome.
  8. 13. a genetic factor that is blocked by the presence of a dominant factor.
