Across
- 2. name given to the developing organism during the early stages of development
- 5. the genetic makeup of an organism
- 6. the third and middle layer of cells that forms between the endo and ectoderm layers
- 8. the inner layer of cells in the gastrula
- 11. developmental organ where nutrients and oxygen diffuse from a mothers blood into the embryo’s blood, and waste from the embryo is diffused out
- 13. The passing of genes from parents to offspring
- 14. the physical trait that an organism develops and shows
- 17. the outer layer of cells in the gastrula
- 18. the rearranging of cells to create the primitive gastrointestinal system (primitive gut)
- 21. when the alleles of a certain trait are the same
- 23. when more than 2 alleles affect a genotype
- 24. when both alleles contributed to the phenotype of a heterozygous individual produce a trait that is not exactly like either parent
- 25. when the alleles of a certain trait are different
Down
- 1. Where the embryo develops with the female body (womb)
- 3. the trait that is always hidden in a hybrid organism
- 4. an organism that contains contrasting traits
- 7. a section of DNA that encodes a particular function/makes a particular protein
- 9. the changing of unspecialized embryonic cells into the specialized cells, tissues, and organs necessary for the organism
- 10. the complex series of changes that form a zygote into a new organism
- 12. different forms of a gene controlling a particular trait
- 15. a type of characteristic you show like bbeing tall or short
- 16. two dominant alleles are expressed at the same time
- 19. stem cells that are able to differentiate into all cell types of the adult organism
- 20. the trait that always shows in a hybrid organism
- 22. the branch of biology that studies how hereditary information is passed on from parents to offspring
