Across
- 3. having two different alleles for a particular gene (hybrid)
- 4. tool used for calculating the probability of a specific genotype in a genetic cross
- 5. when a dominant allele doesn't completely mask the recessive allele resulting in a blending of both alleles in the trait
- 7. occurs when both alleles for a gene are expressed equally
- 12. first group in a genetics cross experiment
- 14. an organism’s genetic makeup, or allele combination
Down
- 1. an allele that is hidden whenever the dominant allele is present
- 2. when more than one gene affects a trait
- 6. a number that describes how likely it is that a particular event will occur
- 8. when 3 or more possible alleles determine the trait
- 9. an allele whose trait always shows up in the organism when the allele is present
- 10. the father of genetics
- 11. having two identical alleles for a particular gene (purebred)
- 12. an organism’s physical appearance, or visible traits
- 13. percentage of short plants in a crop of 5 short plants and 45 tall plants
