Across
- 4. of dominance . states that some traits of an organism are observed and mask the recessive trait.
- 9. . the way an organism looks or behaves.
- 11. . changes in the nucleotide sequence of DNA.
- 14. . genetically determined characteristics.
- 15. the allele combination is different (Hh)
- 18. . alleles that are always expressed.
- 19. . both alleles in the heterozygous genotype are expressed.
- 20. . portion of DNA that codes for a specific trait.
Down
- 1. alleles . more than two forms of the same gene.
- 2. dominance . neither allele is completely dominate.
- 3. . alleles that are only seen in a homozygous state.
- 5. of Segregation . states that every organism has two alleles of each gene and when gametes are produced, that alleles separate.
- 6. mutation . inserting or deleting one or more nucleotides.
- 7. Mutation . change in a single nucleotide.
- 8. . the allele combination is the same (HH, hh)
- 10. traits . 2 or more genes express a wide range of phenotypes.
- 12. of independent assortment . states that genes for different traits are inherited independently of each other.
- 13. . occurs when a gene sequence is repeated.
- 16. . different forms of a gene
- 17. . the allele combination.
