Who created Punnet square’s
Reginald Punnet
Who is the father of genetics?
Gregory Mendel.
A pattern of inheritance in a hybrid in which trades are blended together
Incomplete dominance
A pattern of inheritance that occurs when two or more genes interact to control a single character
Polygenic inheritance
The process through which organisms with certain adaptations survive to pass on their treats to a greater number of offspring that other organisms do
Natural selection
And inherited trait that helps and animals survive to reproduce
Adaptation
A natural Process in which the ratio of alleles in a population changes randomly overtime
Genetic drift
The treat that an organism expresses as determined by it’s genotype
Phenotype
The letters that symbolize in organisms alleles for a specific trait
Genotype
The study of how traits are passed from one generation to the next
Heredity
A pattern of inheritance in which there are only two alleles and the dominant trait is always expressed in a hybrid organism
Simple dominance
A treat of a specific character that is hidden by the dominant trait in a hybrid organism
Recessive trait
A treat of a specific character that appears in a hybrid organism
Dominant trait
An organism with a mix of alleles for a specific character
Hybrid
An organism that always produces descendants with the same treat for a specific characterPurebred
Purebred
A form of a character such as tall or short
Trait
A characteristic of a species such as size or shape
Character
A pattern of inheritance in a hybrid in which both traits are present but not blended
Codominance
The treat that an organism expresses as determined by it’s genotype
Phenotype
A Labrador retriever coat color is determined by two different genes what type of inheritance is this?
Polygenic inheritance
Human blood involves what type of inheritance.
Multiple alleles
A white albino rabbit lacks fur color. It carries the alleles rr. What is its Genotype and phenotype.
Genotype is rr
Phenotype is white fur (fur lacking color)
I did if I the example as simple dominance, incomplete dominance, or code dominance. A purebred white sheep is Brad with a purebred black sheep to produce a white limb.
Simple dominance
Identify the example as simple dominance, incomplete dominance, or code dominance. A purebred white Poppy is pollinated by a purebred red poppy all of the offspring have pink blossoms.
Incomplete dominance
