Heredity Review Genetics • Mendel’s discoveries formed the foundation of ___________, the scientific study of heredity. Dominant • A ___________ allele is one whose trait always shows up in the organism when the allele is present. Trait • Each different form of a physical characteristic is a _______. Gene • A ______ is the unit of genetic material that controls a trait. Homozygous • An organism that has two identical alleles for a trait is _____________ . Genotype • An organism’s __________ is its genetic makeup, or allele combination. Recessive • A ___________ allele is hidden whenever the opposite allele is present. Phenotype • An organism’s __________ is its physical appearance, or visible traits. Heterozygous • An organism that has two different alleles for a trait is _____________ . Heredity • ___________ is the passing of physical characteristics from parents to offspring. Alleles • _________ are the different forms of a gene.
