A version of a gene.

When the heterozygous genotype results in a phenotype where both alleles are fully and separately expressed.

Chromosomes 1-44 in a human.

Only expressed in the homozygous state.

Genes that travel on the X chromosome.

Chromosomes line up randomly during metaphase

A diagram that shows homologous chromosome pairs.

The macromolecule that runs your body and expresses your traits.

A genotype resulting from the inheritance of two different alleles from your parents.

Section of a chromosome that codes for a single protein.

Genes that are likely inherited together due to their physical proximity.

Overshadows the other allele in the heterozygous state.

The physical trait expressed.

More than 2 versions of a gene (more than just a “dominant” and a “recessive”).

Condensed genetic material.

The expression of one gene is modified by the expression of one or more other genes

Mendel's Law states that at the end of meiosis, each gamete formed should only have 1 copy from each homologous chromosome pair.

A genotype resulting from the inheritance of the same alleles from your parents.

The macromolecule that has the instructions for making you who you are.

When the heterozygous genotype results in a phenotype where the two alleles are blended together.

The actual alleles you inherit.

The chromosomes that determine your sex.

A person that has the gene for a trait or disease but doesn’t show it.

Mendel's Law that states some versions of genes are dominant over others.
