Mendelian Genetics

3. One phenotype is influenced by multiple genes
7. Phenotypes of heterozygote and homozygous dominant is the same; ________ Dominance
10. Phenotype of the heterozygote includes both phenotypes of the homozygotes (both dominant traits expressed)
11. Environment favors one phenotype is favored over another to enhance an organism’s survival; ________ Selection
14. Each pair of alleles separate independently of any other pair during Meiosis
15. One gene influences expression of multiple phenotypes
18. The slightly different versions of a gene on homologous chromosomes
19. Humans favor one phenotype over another. They breed organisms over generations to select for that phenotype; _________ Selection
20. Method of determining the unknown genotype of an individual by crossing them with a homozygous recessive individual

1. Phenotypes is a mix of both parent's phenotypes; _______ Dominance
2. Genetic makeup of an individual
4. Diploid individual has two identical alleles for a specific gene; Ex: YY
5. Phenotype are influenced by genes on the X chromosome
6. Crossing individuals with the same phenotype. Over generations, this leads to all individuals having the same genotype
8. Observable characteristics (visible or behavior) of an individual resulting from their genotype
9. The different alleles on homologous chromosomes separate during Meiosis. One allele is passed onto offspring; Mendel’s Law of __________
12. Genes located near each other on the same chromosome are unlikely to cross over, so they are often inherited together
13. Diploid individual has two different alleles for a specific gene; Ex: Yy
16. one gene alters the phenotypic expression of another gene
17. a specific characteristic of an individual's phenotype
