Genetics

2. how characteristics are transmitted from parents to offspring
5. a reproductive cell that receives only one factor of each parent
8. physical appearance as a result of the genotype
9. a trait that masks the other factor for a specific characteristic
10. dominance heterozygous and homozygous dominant are indistinguishable in phenotype
13. the transmission of characteristics from parents to offspring
14. the transfer of pollen from an anther to a stigma of a flower of the same species
15. dominance phenotype intermediate between the dominant and recessive trait
16. of independent assortment factors for different characteristics are distributed to gametes independently
18. both alleles for a gene are expressed in a heterozygous offspring

1. pollination the reproductive process from which pollen from one plant is transferred to the stigma of another plant
2. genetic makeup of a organism
3. pollination involving the same flower, flowers on the same plant, or two genetically identical plants
4. likelihood that a specific event will occur
6. alternative form of a gene
7. cross a cross between individuals involving one pair of contrasting traits
11. a characteristic
12. sqquare predicts the outcome of genetic crossing
17. a trait that is masked
19. cros a cross between individuals involving two pairs of contrasting traits
