  4. 10. two of these alleles are needed to show a trait, represented by a lowercase letter
  5. 12. two different alleles (one dominant one recessive); ex) Ee
  6. 13. law that states dominant alleles will show over recessive alleles

  3. 5. law that states gametes are separated during meiosis
  4. 6. different variations of a gene for the same trait
  5. 8. an organism's genetic information
