DNA

Question 1

Genes

Answer 1

Sequence of DNA that determines a trait.

Question 2

Allele

Answer 2

One or more different form of gene and also Genotype.

Question 3

Dominate

Answer 3

The trait that does the “masking” of the other trait. In an ear this would be the free one. It is also the capital letter.

Question 4

recessive

Answer 4

is mask able by the dominate trait. In an ear it would be the attached one. It is also the lower case letter.

Question 5

Homozygous

Answer 5

a gene or 2 with the same allele. Homo means same so think about that. It would be capital capital or lower case lower case. AA aa

Question 6

Heterozygous

Answer 6

2 different alleles for the same trait. Upper case lower case. Aa

Question 25

What would AA be

Answer 25

dominate

Question 26

what would aa be

Answer 26

recessive

Question 27
