6. Each trait is controlled by two of these factors
7. Some traits are consistently passed on from parents to offspring
10. Contain either a T allele or a t allele
12. The passing of traits from parents to offspring
13. Organisms exhibit individual variation in appearance and behavior
15. Always create plants that look like themselves
16. The study of heredity
17. When pollen lands on a stigma of another flower, this is cross-pollination
18. Traits are inherited as “particles”, offspring receive a “piece”
19. Offspring of true-breeding plants
20. Each individual has a unique combination of inherited traits
21. What genes, letters, the organism has(TT, Tt, tt)

1. Organisms that are best adapted to an environment survive, and reproduce more than others
2. Offspring are a straight mix
3. Individuals possessing traits well suited for the struggle for the environment will contribute more offspring to the next generation
4. Factors that determine your traits
5. Most population have more offspring each year than local resources can support leading to a struggle for resources
8. An inherited trait that increases an organism’s chances of survival
9. What it looks like (tall or short)
11. When a parent makes sperm or eggs, their genes separate
14. Each species produces more offspring that can survive
