  1. 4. The study of heredity
  2. 5. Special cells used for sexual reproduction
  3. 6. A specific physical characteristic
  4. 8. Heterozygous offspring shows a trait that is a mix of the two possible traits
  5. 11. A monk who figured out early principles of genetics
  6. 14. Sets of DNA which code for the same types of traits (e.g. chromosome 14 from father and chromosome 14 from mother)
  7. 16. Heterozygous offspring show a trait that expresses both traits fully, just in different places
  8. 17. The separation of traits as parents create gametes
  9. 18. DNA which codes for a specific trait/protein
  10. 19. The trait may be hidden or incompletely expressed even if the organism has this kind of trait
  11. 20. A method for determining possible allele combinations and percentages from two given parents

  1. 1. Offspring of parents with different characteristics
  2. 2. When a trait is controlled by multiple genes
  3. 3. The physical characteristics/trait expressed by an organism
  4. 7. Organism with two different forms of a single gene
  5. 9. When separation of genes for two different traits do not affect the other
  6. 10. Different forms of a single trait/protein in the DNA
  7. 12. A trait is always expressed if the organism has this kind of trait
  8. 13. The type of alleles/genes present in an organism
  9. 15. Organism with both forms of a single gene being the same
