The idea that a homunculus exists within the gametes was called: preformationism inheritance of acquired characteristics pangenesis blending inheritance - Answer- preformationism Synapsis refers to: dyad formation side-by-side alignment of non homologous chromosomes side-by-side alignment of homologous chromosomes monad movement to opposite poles chiasma segregation - Answer- side-by-side alignment of homologous chromosomes A chromosome with a centromere in the middle is cal...

In certain plants, tall is dominant to short trait. If a heterozygous plant is crossed with another heterozygous (tall) plant, what is the probability that the offspring will be short? A) 1/2 B) 1/4 C)0 D) 1 E) 1/6 - 1/4 The parents' genotype is Tt because they are both heterozygous tall. The punnet square would indicate 3/4 chance that the offspring will be tall (TT, Tt, Tt) and 1/4 chance they will be short (tt) A cross between pea plants with red flowers and plants with white flowe...

gene a section of DNA on a chromosome that codes for a protein. alleles one version of a gene. You have one on a chromosome from Mom, the other on the chromosome from Dad. They are represented by capital or lower case letters. dominant allele A version of a gene where you only need one copy in order to express that trait. Represented by a capital letter recessive allele A version of a gene that is not expressed if paired with a different type of allele. Represented by a ...
