Mendelian Genetics Review Questions and Answers (100% Pass)
Heredity - ✔️✔️Passing of traits from parent to offspring
Genetics - ✔️✔️The study of how traits are transmitted from parent to offspring
Purebred - ✔️✔️Pure breed is someone from the same breed
Traits - ✔️✔️Specific characteristics, varies from one individual to another
Genes - ✔️✔️Determine traits passed from generation to the next
Dominant - ✔️✔️Dominant alleles masks or dominates other genes, represented with a capitol
letter
Complete Dominance - ✔️✔️The dominant allele is masking the recessive. Ex: Xx
Reccesive - ✔️✔️covered up by other genes, represented w/lower case letter
Homozygous - ✔️✔️the alleles are the same. Ex: RR, DD, rr, dd
Heterozygous - ✔️✔️The alleles are different. Ex: Pp
Genotype - ✔️✔️"genetic makeup", "the genes". they are the letter used to describe the genome,
ex: pp, PP, Pp
Phenotype - ✔️✔️the physical appearance one sees, what the genes mean. ex: tall, blonde, green
Probability - ✔️✔️Likelihood of an event occurring, used for large # of events, cannot predict
precise
P generation - ✔️✔️Parental generation, First Generation
F1 generation - ✔️✔️First filial- second generation
Hybrid - ✔️✔️when alleles are heterozygous
F2 generation - ✔️✔️Second filial- 3rd generation
Co-dominance - ✔️✔️Each allele contributes to the phenotype, ex: black chicken with speckled
white dots
incomplete dominance - ✔️✔️One allele is not completely dominant over the other heterozygous
phenotype. ex: Red * White= pink
Allele - ✔️✔️different forms of the gene
