Mendel's Genetics

The way a trait looks is called... 

• heterotype
• phenotype
• zelotype
• genotype

For any particular trait, the pair of alleles of each parent separate and only one allele from each parent passes to an offspring is Mendel's principle of:

• independent assortment
• hybridization
• segregation

When two or more characteristics are inherited,and the genes are located on separate chromosomes, then they are inherited independently of each other

• unit inheritance
• segregation
• independent assortment
• dominance

An allele is

• another word for a gene
• a homozygous genotype
• a heterozygous genotype
• one of several possible forms of a gene

• genetic makeup
• actual physical appearance

When the genotype consists of a dominant and a recessive allele, the phenotype will be like _________________ allele.

• the dominant
• the recessive
• neither

Gregor Mendel was:

• an English scientist who carried out research with Charles Darwin
• a little known Central European monk
• an early 20th century Dutch biologist who carried out genetics research

Cross in first filial generation produces generation called

• F1 generation
• P2 generation
• F2 generation
• G1 generation

Offspring generation of P1 (parental generation) is classified as

• F2 generation
• G1 generation
• F1 generation
• P2 generation

In an individual, particular combination of genes is called

• serotype
• genotype
• phenotype
• prototype
