Across
- 3. a specific form of a gene
- 8. When ONE parent creates an offspring that is genetically identical to itself (No spaces)
- 9. When both traits in a genotype are the same (Ex. GG)
- 11. Makes up DNA and contains information about traits
- 12. When the traits in a genotype are different (Ex. Gg)
- 14. when neither allele is dominant or recessive and both traits show up in the offspring
- 15. BasketBall player who was barred from the NBA because he had Marfan Syndrome
- 16. gentic information that is passed down from parent to offspring
- 20. When TWO organisms create offspring with a mixture of both parent's traits (no space)
- 21. Also known as the father of genetics, founded ideas of heredity and inheritance through his experiments with pea plants (No space)
Down
- 1. Animal named Dolly who was cloned by scientists in the 1990s (hint: what type of animal?)
- 2. when humans breed two organisms to create desired traits in the offspring (one word)
- 4. Genetic disorder that leads to long limbs, breakable bones, and sometimes an enlarged aorta (one word)
- 5. how an organism physically looks
- 6. Allele that is hidden or not as strong in a genotype
- 7. Genetically identical offspring resulting from Asexual Reproduction
- 10. Allele that covers up or is dominant in a genotype
- 13. The two alleles that make up the genetics of a specific trait
- 17. neither allele completely controls or succumbs to the other so the offspring ends up with a mixture of both traits (No space)
- 18. Organisms created through sexual or asexual reproduction
- 19. when an organism is able to asexually reproduce genetically identical offspring by growing it off of the parent
