Genetics

5. One parent donates a dominant gene and the other donates a recessive gene (hybrid)
6. The fundamental physical and functional unit of heredity. A gene is an ordered sequence in a particular position on a particular chromosome that encodes a specific function.
10. A chart used to display the potential genotype of offspring from a particular male and female parent
12. Both genes are of the same trait

1. A group of cells derived from a single ancestor.
2. The physical expression of a trait
3. a gene that controls its recessive form and determines the physical type (phenotype)
4. All the genetic material in the chromosomes of a particular organism
7. a body composed of DNA which can be seen in the nucleus
8. A group of organisms from the same parents
9. The molecule that encodes genetic information The four nucleotides in DNA contain the bases: adenine (A), guanine (G). cytosine (C), and thymine (T).
11. a gene that can be controlled by a dominant form
