Across
- 7. Shows all possible combinations of alleles in a cross.
- 8. To have 2 of the same allele, commonly referred to as purebreds.
- 10. Used to track certain diseases or traits that are passed from generation to generation.
- 12. Neither allele of the pair is dominant, they blend and display a new trait, just like paint.
- 13. A genetically determined characteristic.
- 16. Different forms of a gene.
- 17. Expressed only if homozygous.
- 18. Genetic makeup in letters.
Down
- 1. To have 2 different alleles, commonly referred to as hybrids.
- 2. Law where pairs of alleles separate during meiosis so that each egg or sperm gets only 1 of each allele.
- 3. Physical expression of a gene.
- 4. When gene for trait is on an autosome.
- 5. Both alleles are expressed in the heterozygote.
- 6. A cross where one trait is observed.
- 7. When the trait shows a wide range of varieties.
- 9. A cross where two traits are observed.
- 11. Expressed when in presence of recessive allele.
- 14. Experimented with traits in garden pea plants to determine basic patterns of inheritance.
- 15. The study of Heredity.
