Genetics and Heredity Study Guide
Vocabulary you need to know for the test:
heredity
trait
genetics
fertilization
purebred
hybrid
gene
allele
probability
punnett square
homozygous
heterozygous
codominance
multiple alleles
carrier
genetic disorder
Cystic Fibrosis
Sickle-Cell Disease
Hemophilia
Down Syndrome
Pedigree
Karyotype
Concepts you need know:
1.The difference between dominant and recessive alleles
2.How to complete a punnett square
3.How to determine phenotypes and genotypes
4.What the laws of probability predict
5.In probability, events occur independently- what does this mean?
6.The result of codominance
7.What determines how offspring will look
8.The different ways that human traits are controlled (ex. Single gene with
multiple alleles)
9.Girl= XX Boy=XY
10.Why males are more likely to be color blind and to have other traits
controlled by recessive alleles
