How Are Traits Passed From Generation to Generation
... Inheritance- the process by which traits are passed from one generation to the next. Monohybrid cross- a genetic cross that involves only one trait Multiple alleles- Three or more alleles for the same gene Gametes-Male and female sex cells Nucleotide- monomer of nucleic acids Pedigree- a genetic ana ...

Chapter 3 Review Notes
... Using twin and adoption methods, behavior geneticists can mathematically estimate the heritability of any trait—the extent to which variation among individuals is due to their differing genes. If the heritability of intelligence is 50 percent, this does not mean that one’s intelligence is 50 percent ...
