Transcript
Genotype
The kinds of genes an individual
carries
Phenotype
The observable expression of a
trait
Allele
An alternate form of a gene for a
particular trait
Heterozygous
Two different genes for the same
trait
Homozygous
Two identical genes for the same
trait
Dominant
An inherited trait that is present even
when inherited only from one parent
Recessive
The form of the gene that shows up
only when inherited from both parents
Punnett Square
A tool used to analyze possible
breeding outcomes
Probability
The likelihood of an occurrence
Gene
The segment of DNA that
determines a particular trait
Trait
An inherited characteristic of an
organism
Heredity
The passing of traits from parents
to offspring
