List 21 - Genetics

Incomplete dominance

• traits that are controlled by the sex chromosomes (X or Y)

• pattern of inheritance where both alleles are shown in the phenotype

• a pattern of inheritance where alleles from both parents are blended

• mating of two different kinds of organisms

Codominance

• traits that are controlled by the sex chromosomes (X or Y)

• pattern of inheritance where both alleles are shown in the phenotype

• a pattern of inheritance where alleles from both parents are blended

• mating of two different kinds of organisms

Pedigree

• traits that are controlled by the sex chromosomes (X or Y)

• moving a section of DNA from the genes of one organism to the genes of another organism

• a chart that uses phenotypes to show the patterns of inheritance of a trait within a family

• mating of two different kinds of organisms

Sex-linked traits

• traits that are controlled by the sex chromosomes (X or Y)

• moving a section of DNA from the genes of one organism to the genes of another organism

• a chart that uses phenotypes to show the patterns of inheritance of a trait within a family

• mating of two different kinds of organisms

Gene splicing

• the production of cells or organisms with identical DNA and identical traits

• moving a section of DNA from the genes of one organism to the genes of another organism

• genetically modified organism, an organism whose genes have been changed by genetic engineering so that its DNA contains one or more genes not normally found there

• methods used to produce new forms of DNA

Genetic engineering

• the production of cells or organisms with identical DNA and identical traits

Hybridization

• mating of two different kinds of organisms

• mating organisms to produce offspring with certain traits
