Across
- 5. in sexual reproduction, male/female cells join
- 7. the offspring of many generations that have the same trait
- 8. factors that control a trait
- 9. allele that each parent passes to offspring based on probability
- 12. An organism's genetic makeup, or allele combinations.
- 13. Passing of physical characteristics from parents to offspring
- 14. chart that shows possible combinations of alleles
- 16. allele whose trait always presents and mask recessive alleles
- 17. An organism that has two identical alleles for a trait
- 18. the different forms of a gene
Down
- 1. alleles are neither dominant/recessive; both alleles expressed
- 2. A number that describes how likely it is that an event will
- 3. father of genetics
- 4. An organism's physical appearance, or visible traits.
- 6. trait that is hidden by the presence of a dominant trait
