genetics

3. are passed from parent to offspring according to the rules of Mendelian genetics.
5. changing of the structure of a gene, resulting in a variant form that may be transmitted to subsequent generations
6. the genetic constitution of an individual organism.
10. derived genetically from one's parents or ancestors.
12. relating to or denoting heritable characteristics controlled by genes that are expressed in offspring only when inherited from both parents
13. having two identical alleles of a particular gene or genes.
14. the set of observable characteristics of an individual resulting from the interaction of its genotype with the environment.
15. protein found in the nucleus of most living cells, carrying genetic information in the form of genes.
18. considered the father of genetics
19. a dense organelle present in most eukaryotic cells, typically a single rounded structure bounded by a double membrane, containing the genetic material.
20. is the molecule that contains the genetic code of organisms

1. when a dominant allele, or form of a gene, does not completely mask the effects of a recessive allele,
2. one of two or more alternative forms of a gene that arise by mutation and are found at the same place on a chromosome.
4. A trait that is not inherited; one resulting from the effects of the environment.
6. the genetic properties or features of an organis
7. a square diagram that is used to predict the genotypes of a particular cross or breeding experiment.
8. transferred from a parent to offspring and is held to determine some characteristic of the offspring.
9. having two different alleles of a particular gene or genes.
11. similar to homozygous
16. similar to heterozygous
17. one variant of a gene on a chromosome masking or overriding the effect of a different variant
