• Charles Darwin

• Gregor Mendel

• Abe Lincoln

• Vincent Anton

This is a type of heredity where 2 dominant alleles are both fully expressed on a phenotype.

• incomplete dominance

• law of dominance

• codominance

• complete dominance

A trait that can be masked by another one.

• dominant

• recessive

• codominant

• incomplete dominant

Mendel's Laws of Inheritance. The dominant trait masks the recessive trait.

• Law of Dominance

• Law of Inheritance

• Independent assortment

• Law of Segregation

For each inherited trait, there are at least one pair of alleles. During gamete formation, each member of an allelic pair separates from the other member to form genetic make-up of a gamete.

• incomplete dominance

• independent assortment

• law of segregation

• sex-linked traits

This states that allele pairs separate independently during the formation of gametes. This means that traits are passed to offspring independently of one another.

• independent assortment

• law of dominance

• law of segregation

• incomplete dominance

• genotype

• recessive

• phenotype

• probability

this is an observable trait of an organism that can mask the recessive trait

• genotype

• probability

• genetic cross

this is the likelihood of something happening in the future

• probability

• Mendel
