Gametes Sex cells 2. Karyotype A display of the chromosome pairs of a cell arranged by size and shape. 3. Process for karyotyping Typically done by isolating white blood cells from a person, staining them, and taking pictures under a microscope. The picture is then cut to organize chromosomes, which are numbered by size 4. Cytogeneticist a scientist who studies chromosomes under the microscope 5. BRCA1 gene Breast cancer type 1 susceptibility gene. A human tumor suppressor gene that is...

An organism's expressed physical traits, such as hair color or shape, are called its ____ . genotype allele phenotype gamete correct answer: phenotype What is an allele? A version of a gene. A type of cell. A type of mutation. A blood type. correct answer: A version of a gene. An organism that has two different alleles for a single trait is said to be _____ for that trait. haploid heterozygous homozygous polyploid correct answer: heterozygous In this type of inheri...

The austrailian monk whose experiments with pea plants were the begining of our understanding of genetics was 1. Albert Einstein 2. Albus Dumbledore 3 Alfred nobel 4. Gregor Mendel correct answer: Gregor mendel The different alternatives or choices for a gene ( blue green or brown eyes) are called. 1. Generations 2. Options 3. Tetrads 4. Alleles correct answer: Alleles Crossing organisms from the F1 generation produces the _______generation. 1. P2 2. F2 3. P1 4. None of ...

Gregor Mendel correct answer: - Used pure-breeding (genetically identical) lines of garden peas - Lived 1822-1884, father of modern genetics - Examined crosses involving seven different characteristics. Law of Segregation (Mendel) correct answer: All individuals have two copies of each factor. These copies segregate (separate) randomly during gamete formation, and each gamete receives one copy of every factor. Law of Independent Assortment (Mendel) correct answer: The two alleles for ...

traits correct answer: Characteristic that is inhereted. genetics correct answer: Study of heredity patterns and variation of organisms. purebred correct answer: Type of organism whose ancestors are genetically uniform. law of segregation correct answer: Mendel's first law, stating that (1) organisms inherit two copies of genes, one from each parent, and (2) organisms donate only one copy of each gene in their gametes because the genes separate during gamete formation. Who was G...
