Term
Gregor Mendel 3
Definition
father of modern genetics
provided basis for study of heredity
breeded pea plants
Term
heredity
Definition
passing of traits from parent to offspring
Term
why pea plants 2
Definition
traits expressed two ways
can be deliberately crossed
Term
allele
Definition
form of a gene
Term
dominant gene 2
Definition
hides other gene
shows up in phenotype
Term
recessive gene
Definition
hidden by dominant
only shows up in phenotype if two recessive alleles
Term
each individual carries __ alleles of each gene
Definition
2
Term
offspring
Definition
F1
Term
offspring of offspring
Definition
F2
Term
parents
Definition
P
Term
homozygous dominant 2
Definition
TT
pure
Term
heterozygous
Definition
Tt
hybrid
Term
homozygous recessive 2
Definition
tt
pure
Term
gene
Definition
unit of heredity
Term
phenotype
Definition
physical appearance of an individual
Term
genotype
Definition
genetic make up of an individual
Term
monohybrid
Definition
crossing of only one trait
Term
dihybrid
Definition
crossing of two traits
Term
P cross of TT x tt 2
Definition
p-100% tall
g-100% Tt
Term
F1 cross of Tt x Tt
Definition
p-3 tall : 1 short
g-1 TT : 2 Tt : 1 tt
Term
test cross
Definition
cross to find genotype of genotypically unknown individual
always between something and homozygous recessive
Term
incomplete dominance 3
Definition
neither allele is dominant
heterozygous becomes different colour
always lower case
Term
co dominance
Definition
both alleles may be dominant
two colours show up
both letters capitalized
Term
dihybrid cross 2
Definition
used to test for dominant and recessive genes in two separate characteristics
between identically heterozygous individuals
Term
phenotypic result of TtBb x TtBb
Definition
9 : 3 : 3 : 1
Term
T.H. Morgan 3
Definition
american geneticist
studied inheritance in fruit flies
discovered X-linked traits
Term
characteristics of sex linked traits 3
Definition
phenotype more in males
males transmit to daughters but not sons
daughters will mostly only be heterozygous
Term
who is affected by sex-linked traits?
Definition
heterozygous males and homozygous females
Term
sex-linked traits
Definition
genes are located on X chromosome
Term
X^N X^n
Definition
carrier
Term
pedigree 3
Definition
diagram that shows transmission of a trait roman numerals mark line of generations arabic numbers for individuals
Term
Definition
female without trait
Term
Definition
female with trait
Term
Definition
male without trait
Term
Definition
male with trait
Term
◯-◯ or ▢-▢
Definition
identical twins
Term
◯ ◯ or ◯ ▢
Definition
fraternal twins
Term
Definition
carrier
Term
sex-linked dominant traits 5
Definition
phenotype almost every generation
unaffected parents = unaffected kids
males and females affected equally
at least one parent with it
affected individuals can have unaffected kids
Term
sex-linked recessive traits 3
Definition
unaffected parents can have affected kids
two affected individuals often produce affected kid
male and female equal amount of time
Term
multiple alleles
Definition
three or more alleles that code for a trait
Term
blood type alleles and dominance
Definition
A, B, O
A+B > O
Term
blood types:
AA

Definition
no! universal acceptors
Term
O has _______ surface markers; is __________
Definition
universal donor
