Genetics
Across
- 1. Reproduction Reproduction that requires two parents. Sperm and egg cells unite and make a fertilized egg.
- 4. Things that parents pass on to their offspring that define how the offspring will look and act.
- 6. Cell The male cell that fertilizes the female egg cell.
- 10. DNA that contains traits
- 11. The organisms parents birthed.
- 12. What an organism’s gene combination is.
- 15. Division A cell divides and creates a copy of itself.
- 17. An organism asexually reproduces by splitting into pieces, which grow into new clones.
- 18. Obtained from a parent
- 19. The gene that will overpower the recessive gene.
- 20. An organism ‘sprouts’ off of its parent, asexual reproduction.
Down
- 2. Slightly different genes from the ones parents passed.
- 3. When a parent organism reproduces completely by itself, creating an exact copy of itself.
- 5. What an organism’s genes look like.
- 7. When the sperm and egg cell unite and create a fertilized egg.
- 8. A gene that is overpowered by a dominant gene.
- 9. Cell The female reproductive cell that gets fertilized.
- 13. An exact copy of a parent organism.
- 14. The passing of traits from parent to child.
- 16. Two animals being placed together in hopes of them reproducing.
