Across
- 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 each different 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
Down
- 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 the offspring the way it is wanted to look
- 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 that is more unlikely to occur
- 10. made of DNA and acts as instructions and used in heredity
- 13. traits being passed on from parent to offspring
- 14. if the environment changes then an 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
