  1. 3. Different Forms of a gene. For example, short hair or long hair
  2. 5. The genetic makeup (alleles) of an organism
  3. 7. Family trees that give visual of inheritance patterns of particular traits
  4. 9. of Independent Assortment Genes are NOT inherited together
  5. 10. An organism's appearance, determined by genotype
  6. 12. the study of heredity
Down
  1. 1. If this allele is present, then the organism will show the trait of that allele. Usually expressed in the genotype as a capital letter
  2. 2. Two of these alleles must be present for the phenotype of this trait to be demonstrated. Often written in the genotype as a lowercase letter
  3. 4. An organism that has two different alleles, will demonstrate trait of dominant allele
  4. 6. Cell Anemia A disease of the blood where the red blood cells are crescent shaped and can not properly transport oxygen
  5. 8. An organism that has a pair of identical alleles. This can be homozygous dominant (Ex. AA) or homozygous recessive (aa).
  6. 11. Squares Tool used to predict the genotypic outcome of a cross
