In pea plants, flowers that bud on the top of the plant (terminal position) is dominant, and flowers that bud on the sides of the plant (axial position) is recessive. Cross a heterozygous terminal flowering plant with a homozygous terminal flowering plant. Which of the following genotypes is seen in the offspring?

In pea plants, flowers that bud on the top of the plant (terminal position) is dominant, and flowers that bud on the sides of the plant (axial position) is recessive. Cross a heterozygous terminal flowering plant with a homozygous terminal flowering plant. Which of the following phenotypes is seen in the offspring?

This can be used to determine whether an organism expressing the dominant trait is homozygous or heterozygous for the trait.

When completing a test cross, one parent always has to be ____________________?

In Mendel's studies of dihybrid crosses, when the F1 generation underwent self fertilization the offspring showed the following phenotypic ratio?

Genes assort randomly because they are on different chromosomes which algin randomly at the metaphase plate, this is known as the

Each gamete only gets ONE copy of each allele due to the separation of chromosomes during anaphase I, this is known as the

What method can be used to determine the gametes of the parents in a dihybrid cross?

A individual will be called a __________ if they are heterozygous for a recessive disease.

X-linked traits affect both males and females because they both will receive at least one X, but it affects females more because they get two.

Y-linked traits only affect males.

Males are considered ___________ because they only have one allele for any X-linked trait.

Which of the following traits in humans show polygenic inheritance?

In cats, there is a gene which produces ticked fur (bands of different colors on each hair) called Agouti (H). The recessive allele (h) for this gene produces hair which is a solid color from end to end. In addition, there is a coat color gene which has a recessive albino allele (a) which, in the homozygote, prevents the production of any coat color pigment, resulting in a white cat with pink eyes, the traditional albino. This inheritance pattern is known as
