Question 1

Inheritance of alleles that obey Mendel’s laws and follow a strict
dominant/recessive relationship.

Answer 1

simple mendelian

Question 2

This pattern involves the inheritance of genes that are located on
the X chromosome.

Answer 2

x-linked

Question 3

: This pattern occurs when a dominant phenotype is not expressed
even though an individual carries a dominant allele.

Answer 3

incomplete penetrance

Question 4

This pattern occurs when the heterozygote has a phenotype that is intermediate between either corresponding homozygote.

Answer 4

incomplete dominance

Question 5

This pattern occurs when the heterozygote has a trait that is more beneficial than either homozygote

Answer 5

overdominance

Question 6

This pattern occurs when the heterozygote expresses both alleles
simultaneously without forming an intermediate phenotype.

Answer 6

codominance

Question 7

This pattern refers to the effect of sex on the phenotype of the
individual. Some alleles are recessive in one sex and dominant in the opposite
sex.

Answer 7

sex-influenced inheritance

Question 8

: In this pattern, a trait occurs in only one of the two sexes. An
example is breast development in mammals.

Answer 8

sex-limited inheritance

Question 9

has the potential of causing the death of
an organism.

Answer 9

lethal alleles
