Genetics part 2
Across
- 4. A diagram of family history that uses standardized symbols
- 5. the cells in the body other than sperm and egg cells
- 6. a segment of DNA that contains instructions for making proteins
- 7. a pattern of inheritance where one allele masks another allele for a single gene
- 9. a type of inheritance in which two versions (alleles) of the same gene are expressed separately to yield different traits in an individual.
- 13. a single cell formed when a sperm cell fertilizes an egg cell,
- 14. Any change in the DNA sequence of a cell.
- 16. a cell that contains only one set of chromosomes
- 17. One of two or more versions of a genetic sequence at a particular region on a chromosome
- 18. a type of cell division that reduces the number of chromosomes in the parent cell by half and produces four gamete cells.
- 19. a trait that is expressed only when genotype is homozygous
Down
- 1. having inherited the same versions (alleles) of a genomic marker from each biological parent.
- 2. a reproductive cell of an animal or plant.
- 3. the union of two gametes
- 8. having different alleles for a particular trait
- 9. A structure found inside the nucleus of a cell.
- 10. a type of cell division where a single cell divides into two genetically identical daughter cells
- 11. the complete genetic makeup of an organism
- 12. a cell or organism containing two complete sets of chromosomes, with one set coming from each parent
- 15. an individual's observable traits, such as height, eye color and blood type
