Meiosis/Genetics Topic 4 Stages of Meiosis Meiosis Stage 2 Genes and Chromosomes • Terminology: • Genotype – genetic constitution of a gene/org • Phenotype – physical expression of a gene • Dominant allele – form of the gene that is expressed even when only 1 is present • Recessive allele – form of the gene that is only expressed when both alleles are recessive Terminology cont’d • Codominant allele – when two two forms of a gene are both expressed when paired together • Locus – the location of a gene/allele on a chromosome • Homozygous – when both alleles of a gene are the same (ex. aa, AA) • Heterozygous – when both alleles of a gene Terminology cont’d • Carrier – an individual of heterozygous makeup that carriers, and therefore can pass on, a disease causing allele but doesn’t express that trait • Test cross – when an individual of known phenotype but unknown genotype (AA or Aa) is crossed with a homozygous recessive individual in order to determine its genetic make-up.
