Activity #48- Genetics Vocab 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. Heredity Genetics- The study of heredity Gene Dominant Recessive Allele Genotype Phenotype Homozygous- genotypes with the same alleles; either 2 dominant or 2 recessive Heterozygous- genotypes with different alleles; one dominant and one recessive Punnett Square Activity #48- Genetics Vocab 1. Heredity- The passing on of traits from parent to offspring 2. Genetics- The study of heredity 3. Gene- Units of heredity; segments of DNA on chromosomes 4. Dominant- A trait that is shown when at least 1 dominant allele is present , represented by a capital letter (ex. B)“stronger trait” 5. Recessive- A trait that is only shown if 2 recessive alleles are inherited , represented by a lower case letter (ex. b) “weaker trait” 6. Allele- different forms of the same gene; represented by a letter (“B” or “b”) 7. Genotype- Gene makeup of an organism (RR, Rr, or rr) 8. Phenotype- Physical appearance (brown hair, green eyes) 9. Homozygous- genotypes with the same alleles; either 2 dominant or 2 recessive 10. Heterozygous- genotypes with different alleles; one dominant and one recessive 11. Punnett Square- a tool to predict the probability of inheriting traits
