Having two different alleles for a trait (example Hh):

• homozygous
• heterozygous
• dominant
• purebred

Having two of the SAME alleles for a trait (example HH or hh):

• homozygous
• heterozygous
• recessive
• dominant

Which of the following is a phenotype?

• red hair
• heterozygous
• BB

What is the cause of some traits "skipping" a generation?

• dominant traits
• recessive traits
• hybrid alleles
• homologous chromosomes

Pairs of genes that control the same trait are known as

• allelles
• gametes
• hybrids
• loci
