A form of inheritance where both alleles are equally expressed in the phenotype.
(Examples: Type AB blood and Red & White Flower)
dominant
recessive
codominant
incomplete dominance
The passing of genetic traits is passed from parents to offspring through DNA.
(Example: sickle cell anemia)
inheritance
development
homeostasis
codominance
A chart used to trace the inheritance of traits in a family across generations.
purebred
genome
genotype
pedigree
External influences (such as diet, climate, or toxins) that can affect gene expression and traits.
personal factors
host factors
spiritual factors
environmental factors
A classification system for human blood based on the presence or absence of A and B antigens on red blood cells.
blood type
phenotype
eye color
blood line
A protein found on red blood cells that determines if blood type is positive (+) or negative (-).
Rh factor
platelets
fibrin
hemoglobin
An individual who has one copy of a recessive allele but does not express the trait in their phenotype.
recessive
carrier
pedigree
receptor
Differences in DNA sequences among individuals in a population, leading to different traits.
genetic variation
phenotypic variation
environmental variation
genetic mutation
A genetic cross that examines the inheritance of ONE specific trait.
monohybrid cross
