F1
Mendel allowed the ________ progeny to self- pollinate and the wrinkled seed trait reappeared in the F2 generation.
New cards
3
Gregor Mendel
________ worked with pea varieties that differed in seven easily recognizable traits, this can also be referred to as an individuals phenotype (a trait that can be observed .)
New cards
4
True breeding
________ is a term that describes how all of the offspring are of the same variety.
New cards
5
Alleles
________ can be dominant or recessive.
New cards
6
Genotype
________ refers to the two alleles an individual has for a specific trait.
New cards
7
Genetic disorders
________ can be either autosomal or sex- linked.
New cards
8
Mendels
________ pea population had two distinct phenotypes for each of the seven traits.
New cards
9
Mendel
________ crossed plants with round seeds and plants with wrinkled seeds.
New cards
10
A trait is a variant for a character, for example
brown

11
We label the different generations of a cross as
P generation (parents), F1 generation (first filial generation), and F2 generation (second filial generation)
New cards
12
The two possible results were
the F2 generation with two phenotypes (identical to the parents) or the F2 generation with four phenotypes
New cards
13
Phenotype
refers to a trait that can be observable.
New cards
14
trait
A _______ is a variant for a character
New cards
15
monohybrid cross
A ________________ describes the mating between two parents that differ in only one trait.
New cards
16
law of segregation
The __________________ describes how each individual has a pair of factors for each trait called alleles. The alleles segregate during gamete formation.
New cards
17
The two possible results of a dihybrid cross are:
the F2 generation with two phenotypes (identical to the parents) or the F2 generation with four phenotypes.
New cards
18
autosomal recessive disorders
To have an ________________, the individual who has it would have homozygous recessive alleles (aa).
New cards
19
autosomal dominant disorder
The individual who has an _______________ would either have to have AA or Aa.
