Genetics

4. A characteristic of a trait, in which it is always expressed when present in a genotype. EX: T
5. A tool that helps assess the probability of a trait occurring in offspring using the genotype of both parents (a square).
6. A tool that helps assess the probability of traits occurring in offspring using the genotype of both parents (bigger square).
7. An error that occurs during cell division in which sister chromatids do not separate properly.
10. Individual versions of genes represented by a single letter in mendelian genetics.
11. A mutation that occurs during DNA replication in which a new nitrogenous base/s is inserted into the resulting DNA strand.
12. Cell division that results in the production of four gamete cells.
13. Cell division that results in the production of two somatic cells.
14. A mutation that occurs during DNA replication in which a nitrogenous base/s is removed in the resulting DNA strand.

1. AUSTRIAN botanist and monk who created modern genetics.
2. The study of heredity and how traits are passed onto offspring.
3. The production of mRNA that takes place in the nucleus.
6. The production of DNA that takes place in the nucleus.
8. A mutation that occurs during DNA replication in which a nitrogenous base/s is replaced with a different one in the resulting DNA strand.
9. A characteristic of a trait, in which the trait is not always expressed even when present in a genotype. EX: t.
