Across
- 3. The process by which a single parent cell divides to make two new daughter cells.
- 6. a square diagram that is used to predict the genotypes of a particular cross or breeding experiment.
- 8. Known for his pea plant experiments
- 9. is their unique sequence of DNA. More specifically, this term is used to refer to the two forms a person has inherited from their mother and father, for a particular gene.
- 11. generates offspring that are genetically identical to a single parent.
- 12. the passing on of traits from parents to their offspring
- 16. establish pea plant populations with two different features, such as tall vs. short height, breeding them until they always produced offspring identical to the parentBudding.
- 17. having different alleles for a particular trait.
- 19. the production of new organisms by the combination of genetic information of two individuals of different sexes.
Down
- 1. is the observable expression of this genotype – a person's presentation.
- 2. the inheritance of traits that are typically passed vertically from parent to child where both the parent and the child are affected by the trait or disorder that is related to that gene..
- 4. A structure found inside the nucleus of a cell.
- 5. as related to genetics, is an individual who “carries” and can pass on to its offspring a genomic variant (allele) associated with a disease.
- 7. The basic unit of heredity passed from parent to child.
- 10. establish pea plant populations with two different features, such as tall vs. short height, breeding them until they always produced offspring identical to the parent.
- 12. having inherited the same versions (alleles) of a genomic marker from each biological parent.
- 13. budding and fragmentation
- 14. the molecule that carries genetic information for the development and functioning of an organism.
- 15. a trait that is expressed only when genotype is homozygous
- 18. the study of how genes and how traits are passed down from one generation to the next.
