Unit 7:Heredity Flashcards
1
Q
Phenotype
A
physical appearance of genetic makeup
2
Q
Genotype
A
what the genes are made up of
3
Q
Homozygotic
A
same alleles
ex: PP (homozygous dominant) or pp (homozygous receive)
4
Q
Heterozygotic
A
different alleles
ex: Pp (heterozygous dominant)
5
Q
Test Cross
A
Is done to determine if dominant phenotype was a Heterozygote or Homozygote alleles
6
Q
Principle of Segregation
A
alleles segregate independently and re associate
monohybrid cross
7
Q
Principle of Independent Assortment
A
various linked genes encoding diff traits
8
Q
Dihybrid cross
A
two traits are being expressed by two different genes
