  1. 7. An allele that often does not result in a trait being observed unless it is the only allele present.
  2. 8. The likelihood an event will occur (like a coin flip).
  3. 9. When two distinct individuals are mated.
  4. 11. The study of the inheritance of traits from parent(s) to offspring.
  5. 12. Appearance/behavior of an organism.
  6. 14. Scientist and priest whose study of pea plants created the science of "Genetics"
  7. 16. Mendel's 2nd Law; there are two copies of a gene, but only one gets passed on via gametes--now explained by meiosis.
  8. 17. A segment of DNA responsible for a trait; originally called "Unit factors".
  9. 18. Mendel's 3rd Law; multiple genes do not have to be inherited together.
  10. 19. Tool used to predict the genetic outcome of breeding.

  1. 1. A general characteristic of an organism (e.g. Eye color, hair color).
  2. 2. A combination of traits not found in either of an organism's parents.
  3. 3. A cross in which an experimenter is observing only one character.
  4. 4. An allele that, if present, will result in a trait being observed.
  5. 5. A specific property of an organism's characteristic (e.g. brown eyes, red hair).
  6. 6. Having two varieties of allele (Tt).
  7. 10. Genetic make-up of an organism.
  8. 13. Having only one variety of allele (TT, tt).
  9. 15. Mendel's 1st Law; that genes can have different varieties and only some varieties of traits appear.
