| chromosome theory of heredity | theory that states that the material of inheredity is carried by the chromosomes |
| Walter S. Sutton | man who publised 2 papers on theory of heredity and also recognized similarities between Mendel's factors and chromosomes |
| Mendel's factors properties | occur in pairs, segregate in gamete production, pairs assort independently |
| Chromosomes properties | occur in pairs, separate during meiosis, pairs assort independently |
| Theodor Boveri | independently came to same conclusion as Sutton |
| William Bateson and RC Punnett | realized that certain genes for different trats were not assorting independently |
| linked genes | genes on the same chromosome (Each chromosome has many genes, and when they are close together they travel to the same gamete and are often inherited together - not assorted independently) |
| genetic recombination | the shuffling of genes into new combinations by crossing over |
| recombinant | an organism or chromosome with a recombined set of genes |
| gene mapping | locating genes on chromosomes |
| crossing over | the exchange of genes between pairs of homologous chromosomes during meiosis ii |
