Genetics
Across
- 1. having two identical alleles of a particular gene or genes
- 3. covers the organism's morphology or physical form and structure
- 5. the offspring of two plants or animals of different species or varieties
- 11. A branch of biology
- 12. can occur because neither of the two alleles is fully dominant over the other, or because the dominant allele does not fully dominate the recessive allele
- 14. A long DNA molecule with part or all of the genetic material of an organism
- 17. A basic unit of heredity
- 20. one of two or more alternative forms of a gene that arise by mutation and are found at the same place on a chromosome
- 21. is a non-heritable change in a function or structure of a living organism
Down
- 2. A person who planted pea plants and stuied there genetics.
- 4. derived genetically from one's parents or ancestors
- 6. is the weak, unexpressed trait of a dichotomous pair of alleles
- 7. molecule that contains the genetic code of organisms
- 8. a square diagram that is used to predict the genotypes of a particular cross or breeding experiment
- 9. A trait that one thing got a genetic from their parents or ancestors.
- 10. is opposed to a recessive trait which is expressed only when two copies of the gene are present
- 13. A membrane-bound organelle that contains the cell's chromosomes
- 15. an alteration in the nucleotide sequence of the genome of an organism, virus, or extrachromosomal DNA
- 16. the genetic constitution of an individual organism
- 18. not mixed or adulterated with any other substance or material
- 19. having two different alleles of a particular gene or genes
