  • gene - - An individual’s characteristics are determined by factors that are passed from one parental generation to the next.
  • allele - The different forms of a gene Principle of Dominance TL 
  • dominant - If an organism has at least one dominant allele for a trait it will exhibit that form of the trait.
  • recessive - getting certain characteristics that are influenced/controlled by genes that are made known in offspring 
  • homozygous - organisms that have two identical alleles for a particular gene

  • heterozygous - organisms that have two different alleles for the same gene
  • haploid - a cell that contains only a single set of chromosomes
  • diploid - a cell that contains both sets of homologous chromosomes
  • crossing-over - The chromatids of the homologous chromos cross over each other. The crossed sections of the chromatids are exchanged
  • meiosis - a process in which the number of chromosomes per cell is cut in half through the separation of homologous chromosomes in a diploid cell

The formation of genes is called meiosis, where there are eight stages, and these stages all lead up to the formation of a single gene, and this is how they are processed throughout their offspring ]]> 2021-05-13 02:04:21 UTC https://padlet.com/2024balests/53kzbissy057i705/wish/1519836667 What is meiosis? 2024balests https://padlet.com/2024balests/53kzbissy057i705/wish/1519847139 this video explains all about Meiosis in a friendly way]]> 2021-05-13 02:08:58 UTC https://padlet.com/2024balests/53kzbissy057i705/wish/1519847139 True or false: Linked genes are on the same chromosome. 2024balests https://padlet.com/2024balests/53kzbissy057i705/wish/1519857352 True!]]> 2021-05-13 02:13:24 UTC https://padlet.com/2024balests/53kzbissy057i705/wish/1519857352 Which letter of the alphabet represents the number of chromosomes? 2024balests https://padlet.com/2024balests/53kzbissy057i705/wish/1519857974 N represents the number of chromosomes?]]> 2021-05-13 02:13:41 UTC https://padlet.com/2024balests/53kzbissy057i705/wish/1519857974
