  1. 1. The law that the dominant allele will always mask the presence of the recessive allele
  2. 2. The genetic material/code of a organism that is inherited from 2 parents
  3. 4. A different variation of the same gene which results in unique characteristics
  4. 5. The set of observable/physical characteristics of a organism
  5. 6. A model used to predict future genotypes for a offspring
  6. 9. Having two different alleles of a particular gene or genes
