Front

Identify the sugar component of a nucleotide.

Back

Deoxyribose sugar.

Front

What part of the nucleotide is labeled 'A'?

Back

Phosphate.

Front

What inheritance pattern shows both traits in possible offspring?

Back

Co-dominance.

Front

What inheritance pattern is shown when both alleles are expressed equally?

Back

Co-dominance.

Front

Define incomplete dominance.

Back

A genetic situation in which one allele does not completely dominate another allele, resulting in a new phenotype.

Front

Give an example of incomplete dominance.

Back

Red and white flowers producing pink flowers.

Front

What is the difference between co-dominance and incomplete dominance?

Back

In co-dominance, both traits are fully expressed, while in incomplete dominance, a blend of traits is observed.

Front

What are the three main types of inheritance patterns?

Back

Complete dominance, incomplete dominance, and co-dominance.

Front

What is a nucleotide composed of?

Back

A nitrogen base, a phosphate group, and a sugar (deoxyribose or ribose).
