It’s genetics, Inheritance. It’s genetics: How traits are passed on

It’s genetics, Inheritance. It’s genetics: How traits are passed on
We each have genes Found on every chromosome and They code for traits
Your eyes are green But his are grey and mine are brown All caused by genes
You have two genes, one from mom and one from dad They’re called alleles
homozygous Two of the same and homozygous is your name You’re heterozygous if it’s one of each heterozygous

It’s genetics, Inheritance. It’s genetics: How traits are passed on
Phenotype expression of genes, what you look like These are your traits
Genotype the genes that control characteristics On chromosomes
Dominance expressing one trait over another Recessive is masked
Autosomes they do not determine gender, Like sex chromosomes
