Genetics

3. the allele that has less influence
5. the study of heredity and the variation of inherited characteristics.
7. the genetic material that makes a gene
9. law that states that alleles segregate randomly into gametes
10. variations of the genes, leading to diverse traits such as eye color.
11. the allele that has greater influence
13. a reproductive cell of an animal or plant
14. two different alleles
15. the offspring of two plants or animals of different species or varieties

1. the law that states the alleles of two (or more) different genes get sorted into gametes independently of one another
2. the physical expression of a gene
4. the passing on of physical or mental characteristics genetically from one generation to another
6. a diploid cell resulting from the fusion of two haploid gametes
8. the transfer of pollen to a stigma, ovule, flower, or plant to allow fertilization.
12. a genetically determined characteristic.
14. two of the same alleles
