Across
- 2. a recessive genetic disorder involving the inability to metabolize a specific amino acid.
- 3. A sex-linked genetic disorder where the blood does not clot properly.
- 4. Testing a suspected heterozygote by crossing it with a known homozygous recessive individual.
- 5. The observable physical characteristics or traits of an organism.
- 7. The first filial generation; the offspring resulting from a cross between two parent organisms.
- 9. The particular position on a homologous chromosome where a gene is located.
- 12. An allele that has the same effect on the phenotype whether it is paired with the same or different allele.
- 14. Any chromosome that is not a sex chromosome.
- 15. When a single characteristic is controlled by the alleles of two or more genes.
- 17. A pattern where the heterozygote has an intermediate phenotype between the two homozygotes.
- 18. Having two different alleles of a gene.
- 20. The amino acid that cannot be produced from phenylalanine in individuals with PKU.
- 21. A chart showing the inheritance of a trait through several generations of a family.
Down
- 1. An allele that only has an effect on the phenotype when present in the homozygous state.
- 2. The ability of one genotype to produce different phenotypes in different environments.
- 6. A grid used to predict the possible genotypes and phenotypes of offspring.
- 8. An individual that has one copy of a recessive allele that causes a genetic disease in individuals that are homozygous.
- 10. Alleles that both affect the phenotype when present in a heterozygote, such as in AB blood groups.
- 11. Having two identical alleles of a gene.
- 13. A range of phenotypes for a trait that cannot be placed into discrete categories.
- 16. The symbolic representation of the pair of alleles possessed by an organism.
- 19. Patterns of inheritance where the gene is located on the X or Y chromosome.
