- 25. / heredity pattern that show one genetic factor involved.
- 31. / during_______ peas produces many offspring.
- 34. / Gregor Mendel, the father of genetics started breeding this in 1857.
- 35. / the relative like hood of an event happening.
- 37. / is a characteristic controlled by multiple genes.
- 38. / coming off to one character at a time. Also, Mendel first do this in his observation.
- 39. / “Numerous gene inheritance” that is a member of any group of non-allelic genes.
- 40. / a condition in which a person is born is born with additional toes or finger.
- 43. / refers to organism that both alleles are missing for the same gene.
- 44. / these are made of DNA.
- 45. / an interplay between the products of two genes, in which the effect of one such gene by another is dependent in the mutation of one or more other genes.
- 46. / individuals that have only one member of the chromosome pair.
- 48. / the phenotype was being affected by 2 alleles coming from each parent.
- 49. / Mendel did this because he did not know the genotype of an individual expressing a dominant trait.
Down
- 1. / express the passing of traits from parents to their children.
- 2. / hypothesis; possible explanation for hereditary.
