  1. 1. Having two identical alleles for a particular gene
  2. 4. Different versions of a gene.
  3. 5. Is only expressed when an organism inherits two identical alleles for that trait, is overpowered by other the allele.
  4. 7. Is expressed in an organism even when only one allele is inherited, overpowers the other allele.
  5. 9. cell that has two sets of chromosomes, like human somatic cells.
  6. 11. variation type with distinct, separate categories or forms, with no intermediate states.
  7. 12. reproduction that is beneficial in environments where adaptability and genetic diversity are key for survival, but it requires more energy and time.

  1. 1. Cell that has one set of chromosomes
  2. 2. Having two different alleles for a particular gene
  3. 3. Segment of DNA which contains a code for a specific characteristic (trait).
  4. 6. variation type with trait has a range of forms, with gradual differences.
  5. 8. reproduction that is faster and more energy-efficient, making it ideal for stable environments, but it lacks genetic diversity, which can be a disadvantage in the long run.
  6. 10. characteristics passed from parents to offspring, determined by genes.
