CH 11 TEST Flashcards
First group of plants produced by cross-pollination
F1 Generation
The organism has two identocal alleles for a particular trait. TT or tt PUREBRED
homozygous
factors that control traits
genes
passing of traits from parents to their offspring
heredity
parental purebred plants. Each plant has the same type of allele. Ex: Dad has TT mom has tt.
P Generation
the organism has two different alleles for the same trait. Tt. HYBRID
heterozygous
self-pollinated plants that produce offspring that are identical to the parent
purebred
genetic makeup of alleles 1TT:2Tt:1tt or 1:2:1
genotype
plants produced by crossing parents with different characteristics
hybrids
physical characteristics of the offspring. 3Tall:1Short
phenotype
transfer of pollen from the flower of one plant onto a flower of another plant
cross-pollination
some alleles are more noticeable or occure more often (dominant) and some are not noticeable or occur less often (recessive)
dominace
different forms of genes
alleles
transfer of pollen from male to female flower part to produce seeds
pollination
process in which pollen from one flower falls onto a flower of the very same plant.
