Across
- 2. different genes
- 4. The process of mating animals or crossing plants to produce offspring
- 6. an offspring produced by asexual reproduction, either naturally or through artificial processes, that is identical to the parent
- 7. being broken into small or seperate parts
- 9. Physical features on someone from their parents
- 13. a process by which organisms make exact copies of themselves without the union of gametes (sperm and egg cells)
- 17. Each new organism produced by sexual or asexual reproduction
- 18. allele that may be "hidden"
- 19. process by which a sperm cell from a male unites with an egg cell from a female to produce offspring that inherits traits from both.
- 20. A specific sequence of DNA that determines one or more traits
Down
- 1. the union of a male sperm cell and a female egg to form a fertilized egg
- 3. a box that can determine an offspring's genes/traits
- 5. the same genes
- 8. different versions of the same gene
- 10. The passage of genetic information from one generation to the next
- 11. a new organism that develops from its outgrowth
- 12. combinations of genes that offspring receives from its parent
- 14. allele that always shows if present in an individual's genes
- 15. the characteristics an offspring gets from their parents
- 16. A trait that is passed from parents to their offspring(s)
