Across
- 3. A chart to show the traits that could possibly be passed down to offspring
- 4. Qualities that can be easily seen
- 8. Situation where two dominant alleles are equally strong, and both are expressed (Ex: Blood type)
- 10. Parts of a chromosome that control certain traits
- 11. two different alleles for certain traits (Ex: Gg)
- 14. the allele which is hidden behind the dominant allele
Down
- 1. the same two alleles for a certain trait (Ex: GG, gg)
- 2. genetic makeup of a person (Ex: GG, Gg, gg)
- 5. Each allele in a heterozygous individual influences the phenotype resulting in a blend of the phenotypes of the parents (Ex: red flower + white flower = pink flower)
- 6. physical appearance of a person (Ex: blue eyes, blonde hair)
- 7. Short for Deoxyribonucleic Acid, a molecule that contains your genetic makeup
- 9. Study of how traits get passed down to the offspring of sexual reproduction
- 12. different types of a gene
- 13. the allele which always overpowers its recessive counterpart
