Mendel and Heredity

(a)   is the father of genetics.

(Yellow highlight in notes)

True breeding plants always produced offspring that had traits (a)   to the parent plants. (green and pink)

(a)   is the passing on of traits from one generation to the next. (blue)

How many contrasting forms did Mendel notice in his pea plants? (a)   (orange)

The study of heredity is called (a)   . (orange)

Different forms of a gene are called (a)   . (orange)

The trait that appeared the most often had a gene that was (a)   over the other gene. (#13 blue and #14 green)

The dominant gene hid the (a)   gene. (yellow)

A recessive trait shows only when no (a)   allele is present. (green)

The combination of alleles for a particular trait is the (a)   . (orange)
