  1. 1. A pea plant with two identical alleles for purple flowers (PP.)
  2. 4. Where a gene, such as flower color, is found on the chromosome.
  3. 6. If a pea plant has the alleles PP or Pp for flower color, this term describes the specific combination of alleles.
  4. 8. The different versions of gene, such as P for purple flowers and p for white flowers.
  5. 9. When we see a purple flower on a pea plant, we see the physical expression of the alleles Pp or PP.

  1. 2. The section of DNA that determines traits.
  2. 3. A pea plant that produces offspring with purple flowers when it is self-fertilized, indicating it is homozygous for the purple allele (PP.)
  3. 5. A plant with one allele for white flowers and another for purple flowers (Pp.)
  4. 7. Any flower color characteristic is an example of this.
