B2 6 Inheritance - answers
Across
6. Deoxyribose nucleic acid, the
material of inheritance. DNA
8. Undifferentiated cells with the
potential to form a wide variety of
different cell types. stem cells
10. The characteristic that will only
show up in the offspring only if both of
the alleles are inherited. recessive
13. A version of a particular gene. allele
14. Male sex organs which produce
sperm and sex hormones. testes
15. The female sex cells, eggs. ova
16. Diseases which are inherited.
genetic diseases
Down
1. A genetic disease that affect the
lungs, digestive and reproductive
systems. It is inherited through a
recessive allele. cystic fibrosis
person to produce a cloned early
embryo of themselves as a source of
perfectly matched embryonic stem
cells. therapeutic cloning
3. The characteristic that will show up
in the offspring even if only one of the
alleles is inherited. dominant
4. The cells produced by cell division.
daughter cells
5. Asexual cell division where two
identical daughter cells are formed.
mitosis
6. Specialised for a particular function.
differentiated
7. Female sex organs which contain the
eggs and produce sex hormones during
the menstrual cycle. ovaries
9. The chromosomes which carry the
information about the sex of an
individual. sex chromosomes
11. The male sex cells. sperm
division which reduces the chromosome
number of the daughter cells. It is
involved in making the gametes for
sexual reproduction. meiosis
17. People who have a single recessive
allele for a genetic disease. carrier
