Genetics

2. The physical or detectable traits of an organism
6. A characteristic of a trait, or of the allele associated with that trait, in which the trait is expressed even if only one copy of the allele is present
8. Having two different alleles for a gene being considered
12. A grid used to predict the results of genetic crosses
13. A photograph that displays the paired homologous chromosomes of an individual
15. The passing of genetic information from parents to their offspring
16. Having two identical alleles for a gene being considered

1. Having two identical alleles for a gene being considered
3. All of the members of one species that live in a common area and whose population dynamics are different from those of other populations
4. In genetics, denoting an equal degree of dominance of two genes
5. A segment of DNA that directs the development of some inherited traits
7. A specific form of a gene
9. A characteristic of a trait, or of the allele associated with that trait, in which the trait is expressed only if two copies of the allele are present
10. The particular alleles present in an organism for a character or set of characters
11. this is the molecule, unique to each individual, carrying the genetic information to be found in every cell; all the information an organism needs to live and reproduce is contained in its DNA
14. The specific observable form of a character, such as tall for height, pink for flower color, or smooth for seed texture
