  1. 2. What the genetic sequences are coding for, the actual thing that the individual inherits.
  2. 5. A trait that gets overpowered by other traits. Typically seen as a lowercase letter.
  3. 7. (type the letter 3 times, the crossword maker is broken) The variable used in the allele version of the HWE equation to represent the dominant trait.
  4. 8. When both of the alleles are different.
  5. 9. The variable in the HWE equation used to show heterozygous frequency.
  6. 10. The physical location of the gene on a chromosome.
  7. 12. One or more DNA sequences in one place.
  8. 13. When the heterozygous genotype has a higher relative fitness than the homozygous genotypes.
  9. 15. Variations among chromosomes, alleles, or other DNA sequences.
  10. 16. (Has a squared sign, use ^2 instead) The variable used in the HWE equation to show the homozygous recessive frequency.
