Terms in this set (223)



single, two, dominant, recessive Simple Mendelian inheritance involves:
• A _______ gene with ______ different alleles
• Alleles display a simple _______/________ relationship.


simple Mendelian Inheritance This term is commonly applied to the inheritance of alleles that obey Mendel's
laws and follow a strict dominant/recessive relationship


simple Mendelian Inheritance The following description provides the molecular explanation of which
Mendelian inheritance pattern?


50% of the protein, produced by a single copy of the dominant (functional)
allele in the heterozygote, is sufficient to produce the dominant trait.

Incomplete penetrance In the case of dominant traits, this pattern occurs when a dominant phenotype is
not expressed even though an individual carries a dominant allele. In the case of
recessive traits, this pattern occurs when a homozygote carrying both recessive
alleles does not exhibit the trait.


Incomplete penetrance The following description provides the molecular explanation of which
Mendelian inheritance pattern?


Even though a dominant allele is present or two recessive alleles are present, the
protein coded by the gene may not exert its effects. This can be due to
environmental influences or due to other genes that may code proteins that
counteract the effects of the protein coded by the dominant allele.


Incomplete dominance This pattern occurs when the heterozygote has a phenotype that is intermediate
between wither corresponding homozygote.

incomplete dominance The following description provides the molecular explanation of which
Mendelian inheritance pattern?


50% of the protein, produced by a single copy of the functional allele in the
heterozygote, is not sufficient to produce the same trait as in a homozygote
making 100% of that protein.
