Complex Patterns of Inheritance

Front

Both traits expressed TOGETHER (not blended), like a black and white speckled chicken.

Back

Codominance

Front

What type of inheritance do two alleles have if their traits blend together?

Back

Incomplete Dominance

Front

Correct the underlined word: A characteristic that has more than one pair of possible genes is said to be a(n) epistasis.

Back

polygenic trait

Front

Correct the underlined word: Codominance is an inheritance pattern in which the heterozygous genotype results in an intermediate phenotype between the dominant and recessive phenotype.

Back

incomplete dominance

Front

Which two terms best describe the inheritance of human blood types?

Back

Incomplete dominance

Front

Fur color in mice is incompletely dominant. If B is white and T is black, how many offspring in this Punnett Square are grey?

Back

2 out of 4

Front

What pattern of inheritance is shown? What is the expected ratio? (offspring are black and white speckled)

Back

Codominance; 4 out of 4 speckled (black and white) hen

Front

What is the mode of inheritance shown? What is the probability that the offspring will have blue eyes?

Back
