allele - Answer gene variations that arise by mutation and
exist at the same relative locations on homologous chromosomes
autosomes - Answer any of the non-sex chromosomes
blending theory of inheritance - Answer hypothetical

, Q&As
codominance - Answer in a heterozygote, complete and
simultaneous expression of both alleles for the same
characteristic
continuous variation - Answer inheritance pattern in which a
character shows a range of trait values with small gradations
rather than large gaps between them
dihybrid - Answer result of a cross between two true-breeding
parents that express different traits for two characteristics
discontinuous variation - Answer inheritance pattern in which
traits are distinct and are transmitted independently of one
another
dominant - Answer trait which confers the same physical
appearance whether an individual has two copies of the trait or
one copy of the dominant trait and one copy of the recessive trait
dominant lethal - Answer inheritance pattern in which an
allele is lethal both in the homozygote and the heterozygote; this
allele can only be transmitted if the lethality phenotype occurs
after reproductive age
