Chapter 14 - Mendelian Genetics
Across
- 5. Genes on the same chromosome that are relatively close to each other
- 7. When there are three or more alleles for a gene
- 10. Two alleles for a gene are not identical
- 11. Area where genes reside on a chromosome
- 14. When two alleles are equally dominant
- 17. When heterozygous genotype produces a "mixed" phenotype
- 20. Mating of two contrasting, true-breeding varieties
- 21. Cross between heterozygotes from the F1 generation
- 22. Two identical alleles for a gene
- 24. Each gene participates in contributing to the final phenotype
- 25. Actual trait expressed
- 26. Ratio acquired in the F2 generation after crossing heterozygotes in the F1 generation
- 27. One gene's inheritance pattern is independent of another gene
Down
- 1. Used to determine the genotype of an individual with a dominant phenotype
- 2. "Father" of modern genetics
- 3. Each variant of a hereditary character
- 4. Study of hereditary character and variation among organisms
- 6. Term describing how most genes have multiple phenotypic effects
- 8. Parents
- 9. Used to predict results of a genetic cross between individuals of known genetic makeup
- 12. Two alleles of a gene separate during gamete formation and end up in different gametes
- 13. Feature that can be inherited
- 15. Produced by crossing two true-breeding parents different in two genes
- 16. Family tree that describes interrelationships of parents and children across generations
- 18. When a gene controls whether phenotype of a second gene is expressed or suppressed
- 19. Allele combinations
- 23. Plants used by Mendel
