The above image is called a karotype. It shows examples of

An inherited trait

The different ways that a gene can be expressed is called a(n)

Two identical alleles for the same trait.

Two different alleles for the same trait.

Which is heterozygous ?

Which is homozygous ?

having two of the same genes for the trait (sometimes called purebred)

having two different genes for a trait (sometimes called hybrid)

A long strand of molecules that contains genetic "instructions" to build living things

The passing of characteristics from one generation to another through DNA.

What is a phenotype?

What is a genotype?

The physical appearance of an organism which is the result of its genes.

The genetic makeup of an organism, represented with a 2-letter code.

An example of this might be: Aa

An example of this might be: Purple

The process of making sex cells

The process of cell division or replication

"Homo" means...

"Hetero" means...

Select the homozygous dominant genotype

Select the homozygous recessive genotype

Select the heterozygous genotype

Having 2 different alleles for a trait (one dominant and one recessive)

Having 2 copies of the same allele for a trait (can be both dominant or both recessive)

When this is present, the trait it codes for ALWAYS shows up

The trait this codes for will only show up if the dominant allele is not present.
