is the son or daughter |

Heterozygous |
refers to a specific genotype |
|
Homozygous |
When an individual has two of the same allele, whether dominant or recessive |
|
Recessive |
relating to or denoting heritable characteristics controlled by genes that are expressed in offspring only when inherited from both parents |
|
Dominant |
the stronger one |
|
Genetic |
enetics is the study of genes, heredity, and genetic variation in living organisms. It is generally considered a field of biology |
|
Allele |
An allele is a variant form of a gene. |
|
Genotype |
A genotype is an individual's collection of genes |
|
Phenotype |
is the behaviors or actions of the person |
|
Gene trait |
is like hair, skin color, eye color etc. |
|
Heredity |
Heredity is the passing of traits from parents to their offspring |
|
cross |
I when a gene crosses over inorder to make another cell. |
|
monohybrid punnett square |
determines if there's a dominant gene to pick its gene and features. |
|
F1 generation |
The first filial generation, which is comprised of offspring(s) resulting from a cross between strains of distinct genotypes. |
|
simple dominance |
Simple dominance occurs when an inherited trait is coded for by a single gene and that gene has two versions, or alleles |
|
hybrid |
hybrid, also known as cross breed, is the result of mixing, through sexual reproduction, two animals or plants of different breeds, varieties, species or genera |
|
co-dominance |
Codominance is a relationship between two versions of a gene. |
|
incomplete dominance |
Incomplete dominance is a form of intermediate inheritance in which one allele for a specific trait is not completely expressed over its paired allele. |
