Basic Genetics

5. :a type of inheritance in which two versions (alleles) of the same gene are expressed separately to yield different traits in an individual.
8. :a specific characteristic of an individual.
10. :The observable characteristics in an individual resulting from the expression of genes
11. :a trait that is expressed only when genotype is homozygous
12. : The presence of two different alleles at a particular gene locus.

1. :a form of Gene interaction in which both alleles of a gene at a locus are partially expressed, often resulting in an intermediate or different phenotype.
2. :heredity, the sum of all biological processes by which particular characteristics are transmitted from parents to their offspring.
3. :a scoring of the type of variant present at a given location (i.e., a locus) in the genome.
4. :the relationship between two versions of a gene.
6. :One of two or more versions of a genetic sequence at a particular region on a chromosome.
7. :The presence of two identical alleles at a particular gene locus.
9. :The basic unit of heredity passed from parent to child.
