Q

Alleles

A

Alternative forms of a gene

17
Q

Opposite form of a gene, different allele

A

ANTITHETICAL

18
Q

Polymorphic

A

Having two or more possible alleles at a locus

19
Q

Physical, observable expression of inherited traits; detectable products

A

phenotype

20
Q

Pedigree chart:

A

Visual map that displays a family history and can display inheritance patterns for individual traits

21
Q

Equal expression of both alleles in phenotype

A

Codominant

22
Q

is carried
by either parent or both parents but is not generally seen the phenotypic level unless both parents carry the trait

A

recessive

23
Q

Only one allele must be inherited for it to be expressed; gene product always present

A

dominant

24
Q

Genes expressed with equal frequency in males and females, on non-sex chromosome

A

autosomal

25
Q

TRUE OR FALSE:
Traits are exhibited most commonly in males

A

TRUE

26
Q

Mendelian Inheritance Principles

A

Law of Independent Segregation
Law of Independent Assortment
Inheritance patterns: PUNNETT SQUARE

27
Q

This states that traits inherited from different chromosomes expressed separately and discretely.

A

Law of Independent Assortment

28
Q

These are useful for understanding inheritance of blood groups and ramifications of heterozygosity or homozygosity.

A

Punnett Squares

29
Q

Law of Independent Segregation

A

Two members of a single gene pair passed from one generation to the next in SEPARATE gametes

30
Q

TRUE OR FALSE
Agglutination reactions are generally weaker for homozygous cells and slightly stronger for heterozygous cells

A

FALSE
Agglutination reactions are generally STRONGER for homozygous cells and slightly WEAKER for heterozygous cells

31
Q

CIS is?

A

Genes inherited on the same chromosome

32
Q

Trans is?

A

genes inherited on SEPARATE chromosomes. This can weaken the trait’s expression.

33

_____________/secondary/second order occurs when a genetic marker is _____________ in the child but should
have been transmitted by the alleged father

A

Indirect: absent
