Genotype - CORRECT ANSWER - -Refers to the alleles that are present in an organism
-Ex:Homozygous Dominant: AA (Dominant Characteristic), Heterozygous: Aa (Dominant
Characteristic), Homozygous Recessive: aa (Recessive Characteristic)
, Phenotype - CORRECT ANSWER - -Physical expression of the allelic composition for
the trait under study
-Ex:Having blue eyes or brown eyes
Homozygous - CORRECT ANSWER - An organism that has two identical alleles for a
trait
-Ex: AA or aa
Heterozygous - CORRECT ANSWER - -An organism that has two different alleles for a
trait
-Ex: Aa
Dominant - CORRECT ANSWER - An allele is expressed no matter what the second
allele is
Recessive - CORRECT ANSWER - -An allele that is masked when a dominant allele is
present
-Only expressed when the second allele is the same
