Transcript
ALLELE CHROMOSOMES Alternative form of a gene. Threadlike, gene-carrying structure found in the nucleus. Each chromosome consists of one very long DNA molecule and associated proteins. DOMINANT Describes a trait that covers over, or dominates, another form of that trait. GENOTYPE Genetic makeup of an organism HETEROZYGOUS Organism that has two different alleles for a trait HOMOZYGOUS Organism that has two identical alleles for a trait PHENOTYPE Organism's physical appearance, or visible traits. PROBABILITY Number describing how likely it is that an event will occur PUNNETT SQUARE Chart showing all possible combinations of alleles that can result from a genetic cross RECESSIVE Describes a trait that is covered over, or dominated, by another form of that trait and seems to disappear.
