  1. 6. organisms that have two different alleles for the same gene.
  2. 8. the different forms of a gene.
  3. 9. genetic makeup.
  4. 11. Mendel’s second conclusion. This principle states that some alleles are dominant and others are recessive.
  5. 12. use mathematical probability to help predict the genotype and phenotype combinations in genetic crosses.
  6. 14. the likelihood that a particular event will occur.
  7. 15. formation of sex cells.
  8. 16. is a specific characteristic, such as seed color or plant height, of an individual.

  1. 1. physical trait.
  2. 2. separation of alleles during gamete formation.
  3. 3. during sexual reproduction, male and female reproductive cells join together to produce a new cell.
  4. 4. organisms that have two identical alleles for the same gene.
  5. 5. helps account for the many genetic variations observed in plants, animals, and other organisms- even when they have the same parents.
  6. 7. the scientific study of heredity. This is the key to understanding what makes each organism unique.
  7. 10. the factors that are passed from parent to offspring.
  8. 13. the offspring of the crosses between parents with different traits.
