2nd Semester Exam

A unit of heredity which is transferred from a parent to offspring and determines the characteristics of the offspring.

• Gene

• Allele

• DNA

• Meiosis

a variation of the same sequence of nucleotides at the same place on a long DNA molecule

• Gene

• Allele

• DNA

• Meiosis

refers to the genetic makeup of an organism

• Meiosis

• Genotype

• Phenotype

• Homozygous

refers to an individual's observable traits, such as height, eye color and blood type.

• Meiosis

• Genotype

• Phenotype

• Homozygous

refers to the inheritance of traits controlled by a single gene with two alleles , one of which may be completely dominant to the other.

• Heterozygous

• DNA

• Mendelian Inheritance

• Non-Mendelian Inheritance

refers to the inheritance of traits that have a more complex genetic basis than one gene with two alleles and complete dominance.

• Heterozygous

• DNA

• Mendelian Inheritance

• Non-Mendelian Inheritance

All individuals of a species in a given area that can interbreed.

• Variation

• Population

• Genetics

• Genes

difference in DNA among individuals or the differences between populations.

• Variation

• Population

• Genetics

• Genes

is the study of the genetic composition of populations, including distributions and changes in genotype and phenotype frequency

• Gene Pool

• Allele/Gene Frequency

• Red Blood Cells

• Population Genetics

All the alleles of all the individuals in a population.

• Gene Pool

• Allele/Gene Frequency
