  1. The Father of Heredity

  2. GregorMendel

  3. Synonym for “Trait”

  4. Allele

  5. A structure located in the nucleus where DNA is stored

  6. Chromosome

  7. What is the passing of genetic material from one generation to the next generation called?

  8. Heredity

  9. Physical appearance that reflects your genotype

  10. phenotype

  11. This shows possiblephenotypes and genotypes of what an offspring could look like or what genes they can inherit

  12. Punnett Square

  13. This is a picture of chromosomes arranged from biggest to smallest. It shows an organism’s sex and possible disorders

  14. Karyotype

  15. “Genes” the make up of the combination of traits you inherit from your parents (EX. AA, Bb, cc, Dd)

  16. Genotype

  17. 2 copies of the same allele:BB, bb

  18. Homozygous:BB – dominantbb - recessive

  19. 2 words that describe these types of alleles:BbTtSs

  20. Heterozygous ORHybrid

  21. in order for this recessive trait to be seen, the offspring must have two…

  22. of the same alleles - Homozygous recessive (little letters)

  23. The actual genetic information for a particular trait is called:

  24. gene

  25. A person who studies heredity is called:

  26. A geneticist

  27. The gene or allele that is most likely expressed or seen in an offspring – only one is needed to show trait

  28. Dominant:TTTt

  29. Physical appearance

  30. Phenotype – what an organism looks like

  31. 4 facts about Gregor Mendel

  32. 1- he was a monk2 – he was a gardener3- he grew pea plants4 – he was Austrian5 – he studied heredity6 – lived around 1850

  33. Genes that make up the combination of traits you inherit from your parents (EX. AA, Bb, cc, Dd) are called:

  34. Genotype – gene combinations by letters

  35. Give the genotype and phenotype ratios of this Punnett square (T = tall, t = short):

  36. genotype:1 homozygous dominant (TT) 25%2 heterozygous or hybrid (Tt) 50%1 homozygous recessive (tt) 25%1:2:1

  37. In garden snakes, yellow is dominant (Y) over green, and round is dominant (R) over flat.Cross a hybrid male in color who is flat, with a green female who is heterozygous shape. What are the ratios for the offsprings?

  38. Yyrr (male) “x” yyRr (female) • Results: • Yellow + round – 4/16, 1/4 • Yellow + flat – 4/16, 1/4 • Green and round – 4/16, 1/4 • Green and flat – 4/16, 1/4 • RATIO: 1:1:1:1
