Genetics

3. any change in DNA sequence of a cell
5. technique used in an effort to treat or prevent disease.
6. breed from closely related people or animals, especially over many generations.
7. one of two or more alternative forms of a gene that arise by mutation and are found at the same place on a chromosome.
9. the record of descent of an animal, showing it to be purebred.
10. choosing parents with particular characteristics to breed together and produce offspring with more desirable characteristics.
12. an individual's complete set of chromosomes.
14. a type of inheritance in which two versions (alleles) of the same gene are expressed separately to yield different traits in an individual
15. A special form of cell division in which each daughter cell receives half the amount of DNA as the parent cell.
16. how likely something is to happen
18. a table in which all of the possible outcomes for a genetic cross between two individuals with known genotypes are given.
19. an organism or cell, or group of organisms or cells, produced asexually from one ancestor or stock, to which they are genetically identical.

1. having two identical alleles of a particular gene or genes.
2. When there is a gene existing in more than two allelic forms
4. a mutation (a harmful change to a gene, also known as a pathogenic variant) affects your genes or when you have the wrong amount of genetic material.
5. the scientific study of genes and heredity
8. having two different alleles of a particular gene or genes.
11. the set of observable characteristics of an individual resulting from the interaction of its genotype with the environment.
13. is the process in which two complementary single-stranded DNA and/or RNA molecules bond together to form a double-stranded molecule.
17. the genetic constitution of an individual organism.
