Quizizz: Predicting Heredity!

Scientists have been known to use Punnett Squares. What is a punnett square?

• A tool scientist use to to see alleles

• A tool scientist use to see which alleles are dominant

• A tool scientists use to determine the possible combinations of offspring from particular parents.

An organism’s genetic makeup or allele combination.

• Genotype
• Phenotype
• Beanotype
• Notype

An organism’s physical appearance, or visible traits. 

• Genotype
• Phenotype
• Beanotype
• Notype

What is it called when an organism has a dominant AND recessive allele for a trait (hybrid).

• Heterozygous

• Homozygous

• Domozygous

• Thermozygous

What is it called when an organism has two identical alleles for a trait (both are dominant alleles or both are recessive alleles; "Pure").

• Heterozygous

• Homozygous

• Domozygous

• Thermozygous
