�During meiosis, genes for different traits are separated and distributed to gametes independently of one another

�If genes are not connected in any way they will follow the Law of Independent Assortment

�If genes are on the same chromosome, they will not follow the Law of Independent Assortment

# data[].attributes.body
�Alleles separate so that an offspring gets a trait from each parent.

# data[].attributes.body
�Probability:  the likelihood that something will happen

�Punnet square: a diagram that of the possible allele combinations

# data[].attributes.body
�Genotype- which alleles a specific organism possesses (BB, Bb, bb). Having the same alleles is homozygous and having different alleles is heterozygous.

�Phenotype- The physical expression of that trait (BB-brown eyes, Bb-brown eyes, bb-blue eyes

# data[].attributes.body
�Dominant: trait shows up if the dominant allele is present, it is represented by a capital letter.

�Recessive: trait shows up if a dominant allele is not present, it is represented by a lower case letter.

# data[].attributes.body
�P (parental) generation: parents

�F1 (first filial) generation: first generation from the parents (kids).

�What would the F2 generation be?

# data[].attributes.body
�Gene: A specific sequence of DNA that determines a specific trait

�Alleles: different forms of a gene

T= tall  t=short

G=green  g=yellow

�Passing on traits from one generation to the next.

�It is why offspring can look like their parents.
