This scientist is called the
“Father of Genetics.”
3
Who is Gregor Mendel?
4
Using pea plants, Mendel
studied this.
5
What is heredity?
6
Mendel observed the physical
characteristics of pea plants. A
better, more scientific way of
saying physical characteristics is
this.
7
What is phenotype?
8
Mendel found that when he
crossed purebred tall plants with
purebred short plants, he would
only get this type of plant.
9
What are tall plants?
10
Mendel used this reproductive
technique in order to control the
traits of his pea plants.
11
What is cross pollination?
12
This is the scientific study of
heredity.
13
What is genetics?
14
This is a segment of DNA on a
chromosome that codes for a
certain trait.
15
What is a gene?
16
These are different forms of a
gene.
17
What are alleles?
18
Having two identical alleles for
a trait
(AKA “pureline” or “purebred”).
19
What is homozygous?
20
Having two different alleles for
a trait
(AKA “hybrid”).
21
What is heterozygous?
22
Height in pea plants.
23
What is Dominant vs.
Recessive?
24
Pink 4-o’clock flowers.
25
What is incomplete dominance?
26
Roan cattle.
27
What is incomplete dominance?
28
A black and white chicken.
29
What is codominance?
30
In humans, eye, hair, and skin
color are all examples of this.
31
What is incomplete dominance?
32
This is the definition of
mutation.
33
What is a change in a gene or
chromosome?
34
This is a picture of all the
chromosomes in a body cell
arranged in pairs.
35
What is a karyotype?
36
This disorder is caused by an
extra copy of the #21
chromosome.
37
What is Down Syndrome?
38
When talking about base pairs, A
(adenine) will only pair with this
and C (cytosine) will only pair
with this.
39
What is T (thymine) and G
(guanine), respectively?
40
This is a form of chromosome
mutation in which chromosomes
don’t divide properly during
meiosis.
41
What is nondisjunction?
42
This is another way of saying
“sex cell.”
43
What is gamete?
44
This a form of cell division that
is particular to gametes.
45
What is meiosis?
46
The probability of having a male
versus a female offspring is this.
47
What is 50-50?
48
If an X sperm fertilizes an egg,
the zygote will be this.
49
What is female?
50
If a Y sperm fertilizes an egg,
the zygote will be this.
51
What is male?
52
