Genetics

3. A condition in which both alleles for a gene are fully expressed
6. A segment of DNA on a chromosome that codes for a specific trait
8. also known as a hybrid genotype;An organism that has two different alleles for a trait
10. only one form of the gene will be physically represented in the individual; will mask the other form of the gene; always expressed in offspring
11. Augustinian monk and botanist whose experiments in breeding garden peas led to his eventual recognition as founder of the science of genetics
13. A diagram that shows the occurrence of a genetic trait in several generations of a family.

1. A pattern of inheritance in which two alleles, inherited from the parents, are neither dominant nor recessive. The resulting offspring have a phenotype that is a blending of the parental traits.
2. pair of chromosomes that are the same size, same appearance and same genes.
4. An organism that has two identical alleles for a trait
5. another name for homozygous dominant. All children look like the parent if it is this.
7. A chart that shows all the possible combinations of alleles that can result from a genetic cross
9. Alternative forms of a gene for each variation of a trait of an organism.
12. The passing of traits from parents to offspring Genetics The scientific study of heredity
