Test Cross, Incomplete dominance, codominance Flashcards
what is a test cross used to determine
-ALWAYS preformed between which genotypes
-its used to determine the unknown genotype of an organism that has a dominant phenotype
-always preformed between the unknown genotype (with a dominant phenotype) and a homozygous recessive genotype
Test cross results
-what results cause herterozygous
-what results cause homozygous
-if 50% are dominant and 50% recessive
-if 100% are dominant
Incomplete dominance
-deffinition
-how many phenotypes
when 2 genes are equally dominant, they interact to produce a new phenotype. the lack of dominant gene.

Codominance
-what is expressed
-how many phenotypes
both genes are expressed at the same time
