Genetics

3. table in which all of the possible outcomes for a genetic cross between two individuals with known genotypes are given
4. a self-replicating material that is present in nearly all living organisms
6. threadlike structure of nucleic acids and protein found in the nucleus of most living cells.
7. the extent to which something is probable; the likelihood of something happening or being the case
9. having two identical alleles of a particular gene or genes
11. a distinguishing quality or characteristic, typically one belonging to a person
13. a unit of heredity which is transferred from a parent to offspring and is held to determine some characteristic of the offspring
14. a type of cell division that results in four daughter cells each with half the number of chromosomes of the parent cell.

1. a dominant trait or gene
2. genotype may include one normal allele and one mutated allele or two different mutated alleles
3. the set of observable characteristics of an individual resulting from the interaction of its genotype with the environment
5. relating to or denoting heritable characteristics controlled by genes that are expressed in offspring only when inherited from both parent
8. investigate the genetic constitution of (an individual organism
10. a type of cell division that results in two daughter cells each having the same number and kind of chromosomes as the parent nucleus, typical of ordinary tissue growth.
12. one of two or more alternative forms of a gene that arise by mutation and are found at the same place on a chromosome.
