allele separates during gamete formation so each gamete carries only one allele

2
New cards

law of independent assortment

genes for different traits inherited independently

3
New cards

dominant and recessive alleles

dominant expressed always if present

4
New cards

incomplete dominance

neither allele is dominant, heterozygous phenotype is blend of two alleles

5
New cards

codominance

both alleles expressed equally

6
New cards

epistasis

one gene affects another gene’s expression

7
New cards

polygenic

trait impacted by multiple genes

8
New cards

pleiotropy

one mutation leads to many other traits
