Across
- 4. The mathematical chance an event will occur
- 7. A gene that is expressed over its recessive form and determines the phenotype of an organism
- 11. An inherited characteristic of an organism
- 12. The physical expression of a trait as a result of its genotype
- 13. A gene that is not expressed when a dominant form is present
- 14. When both alleles in a heterozygous pair are expressed in the phenotype equally
- 15. The breeding of two individuals that results in the offspring receiving genetic material from both parents
Down
- 1. A tool used to display the potential genotypes of offspring from a particular genetic cross
- 2. A condition in which the paired genes for a trait are the same
- 3. The genetic makeup for a trait
- 5. Occurs when one allele for a trait is not completely expressed over the other allele in its pair
- 6. One of many portions of a DNA molecule that contains genetic instructions
- 8. The study of how traits are passed from parent to offspring
- 9. A condition in which the paired genes for a trait are differed; often referred to as hybrid
- 10. Alternative forms of a gene found at the same place on a chromosome
