Across
- 4. different forms of the same genes.
- 7. When two alleles for a trait are equally expressed with neither being recessive or dominant.
- 10. having two identical alleles of a particular gene or genes.
- 11. Dominance, only expressed when an individual inherits two copies of the recessive allele.
- 12. Dominance, one allele completely masks the other, resulting in a dominant trait being expressed.
- 13. the genetic makeup of an organism.
- 14. selection, variations that exists in plants and animals to help it survive.
- 15. the passing on of physical or mental characteristics genetically from one generation to another.
Down
- 1. having different alleles for a particular trait.
- 2. only expressed when an individual inherits two copies of the recessive allele.
- 3. an individual's observable traits (physical).
- 5. trait, dominant allele is needed for the trait to be expressed.
- 6. breeding, only allowing individual traits to breed (farmers do this).
- 8. square, diagram used in genetics to predict the possible genotypes.
- 9. structure, A body part that is no longer used .
