A | B |
Different forms of the same gene are called _____. | alleles (For example, there's a gene for eye color with two different alleles, a brown allele which is dominant (B) and a blue allele (b) which is recessive) |
Dominant alleles are represented by a _______ letter. | capital (ex:T= tall in pea plants) |
Recessive alleles are represented by a _______ letter. | lower case (ex: t = short in pea plants) |
The types of alleles that an organism inherits is known as the ______. | genotype (example = Bb) |
The physical expression of two alleles is known as the organism's _____. | phenotype |
Bb would be called the organism's _____ while "brown eyes" would be the organism's _____. | genotype, phenotype |
If B = brown eyes and b = blue eyes, what will be the color of your eyes if your genotype is BB? | Brown eyes |
If B = brown eyes and b = blue eyes, what will be the color of your eyes if your genotype is Bb? | Brown eyes (remember that B is dominant) |
If B = brown eyes and b = blue eyes, what will be the color of your eyes if your genotype is bb? | blue eyes |
If B = brown eyes and b = blue eyes, what would the organism's genotype be if the organism was heterozygous? | Bb (remember that 'hetero' means 'mixed') |
If B = brown eyes and b = blue eyes, what would the organism's genotype be if the organism is homozygous dominant? | BB (remember that 'homo' means 'same') |
If B = brown eyes and b = blue eyes, what would the organism's genotype be if the organism is homozygous recessive? | bb (remember that 'homo' means 'same') |
In pea plants, T=tall and t=short. What will the genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring in this cross be? Give the expected percentages.,  | Genotype = 100% Heterozygous (Tt) Phenotype = 100% tall,  |
In pea plants, T=tall and t=short. What will the genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring in this cross be? Give the expected percentages.,  | Genotype = 50% homozygous dominant (TT) and 50% heterozygous (Tt) Phenotype = 100% Tall,  |
In pea plants, T=tall and t=short. What will the genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring in this cross be? Give the expected percentages.,  | Genotype = 25% Homozygous dominant (TT), 50% heterozygous (Tt) and 25% homozygous recessive (tt) Phenotype = 75% Tall and 25% short,  |
In pea plants, T=tall and t=short. What will the genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring in this cross be? Give the expected percentages.,  | Genotype = 50% heterozygous (Tt) and 50% homozygous recessive (tt) Phenotype = 50%Tall and 50% short,  |
How would your set up a Punnett Square for a cross between a short male pea plant and a heterozygous tall female? |  |
Another word for heterozygous is ____. | hybrid |
Another word for homozygous is ____. | purebred |
Another word for purebred is ____. | homozygous,
|
Another word for hybrid is ____. | heterozygous,
