Q

effects of errors in meiosis

A

will be abnormal some will be exact copies extra chromosomes

17
Q

gregor mendel

A

“father of genetics” experimented wit pea plants found basic principles of genetics

18
Q

incomplete dominance

A

one allele is not dominant to another and they blend ( 2 capital letters)

19
Q

co dominance

A

both show to together reccesive and dominate both show together
