| Cross-pollination | flowers designed to make sure that it does not self-pollinate; Pollinated by a different plant |
| P generation | pure (parent) generation |
| F1 generation | crossed 2 P generation with different characteristics |
| F2 generation | generation when all of F1 allowed to self-pollinate |
| Dominant | trait that can be seen |
| Recessive | trait that can't be seen |
| Homozygous | same Alleles |
| Heterozygous | different Alleles |
| Law of segregation | Alleles seperate during Meiosis |
| Law of independent assortment | characteristics are seperate from each other; one characteristic does not depend on another characteristic |
| Probability | # of one kind of result / # of possible results |
