Genetics

6. used to cross different traits and to find the probability of having that trait
9. used in sexual reproduction and is created in meiosis it is a reproductive cell
11. a process that is used for sexual reproduction and results in four gametes
12. a traits description for different each set of genotypes
14. letter pairs of dominant and recessive traits
15. just like heterozygous-both are different
16. both alleles are dominant and both traits are shown in the offspring
19. changes in the DNA
22. a study of how different traits are passed from parent to offspring
23. used in sexual reproduction so the eggs can become offspring
24. trait that is more likely to occur
25. many genes control certain traits
27. someone who has one recessive allele but doesn't have the trait
28. the chances of having a trait out of a certain number of possibilities

1. gene found on the x chromosome and not the y chromosome
2. different alleles are used in a genotype
3. different combinations of alleles for a trait
4. genes can be changed to make
5. instructions for how an organism looks and functions
7. what is being tracked in a pedigree and are the different qualities on/of organisms
8. trait the is more unlikely to occur
10. made of DNA and act as instructions and used in heredity
13. traits being passed on from parent to offspring
14. if the environment changes then and organism is able to change with it
17. the baby that is produced from an organism and is genetically connected to the parents and shares similar traits
18. difference between parents and offspring/difference in DNA
20. the same letters are used in a genotype
21. used to track dominant and recessive traits through different generations of a family
26. coiled up DNA found in the nucleus
