Learning and defining genetics

Define Heredity

• The passing of traits from the parent to the offspring

• I dont know !!!

• Babies

• This is a genotype that is represented when the same set of alleles from both parents is shown in the physical characteristics if the offspring

A characteristic that an organism can pass on to its offspring through genes

• Genotype

• Phenotype

• Trait

• Genetics

A organism's genetic makeup, or allele combinations.

• Genotype

• phenotype

• Homozygous

• Heterozygous

A scientific study of heredity

• Genetics

• DNA

• Allele

• Trait

An organism’s physical appearance or visible traits

• Dominant allele

• Water cycle

• Phenotype

• Recessive allele

Define allele

• A alternative form of a gene

• Allele

• Gene

• This is an genotype that is represented when a different set of alleles from both parents is shown in the physical characteristics of the offspring

An allele that needs at least 1 copy to be shown

• Recessive allele

• Dominant allele

• Allele

• I dont know

An allele that is less powerful than a dominant allele,you need AT LEAST 2 copies of it to be shown

• Phenotype

• Recessive allele

• Homozygous

• Heterozygous

Define Homozygous

• This is a genotype that is represented when the same set of alleles from both parents is shown in the physical characteristics if the offspring

• DNA

• A organism's genetic makeup, or allele combinations.

• This is an genotype that is represented when a different set of alleles from both parents is shown in the physical characteristics of the offspring
