An organism that has 2 different alleles for a trait is called:

• hybrid

• genotype
• phenotype
• phenomenal
• phantastic

The genetic makeup of an organism is called its:

• phenotype
• genotype
• genius-type
• blood-type

When one allele is only partially dominant, it is called:

• recession
• impartial dominance
• partial dominance
• incomplete dominance

When both alleles are expressed equally, it is called:

• dominant alleles
• polygenic inheritance
• codominance
• heredity
