E N D
1. A person with ff alleles for freckles is: • A. Homozygous recessive for this trait • B. Homozygous dominant for this trait • C. Heterozygous dominant for this trait • D. Either (A) or (B)
2. A person with Ff alleles for freckles is: • A. Homozygous recessive for this trait • B. Homozygous dominant for this trait • C. Heterozygous dominant for this trait • D. Either (A) or (B)
3. When both alleles for a trait are different, one says the organism is _____________ for the trait.
4. For every gene you have two alleles in your body cells, except in each of the sex cells you produce, there is only 1 allele for each gene. • This represents which of Mendel’s Genetics Laws: • A. Law of Segregation • B. Law of Independent Assortment
5. In breeding roses, a horticulturalist did a first cross with a homozygous dominant red rose and a white rose. This cross produced all red roses. The rose breeder then took all the offspring and self-pollinated them. This next generation had white roses reappear in it. This generation is called the: (choose one) • A. P generation • B. F1 generation • C. F2 generation
6. In breeding roses, a horticulturalist did a first cross with a homozygous dominant red rose and a white rose. This cross produced all red roses. The rose breeder then took all the offspring and self-pollinated them. This next generation had white roses reappear in it. The homozygous dominant red rose is in which generation? • A. P generation • B. F1 generation • C. F2 generation
7. The type of allele that is expressed anytime it is present, even if other alleles are also there.
8. This allele is not expressed when a dominant allele is present.
9. The allele for flying pigs is dominant to the allele for non-flying pigs. How would you represent the alleles of a pig that is heterozygous dominant for flying?
10. The alleles for hair color separate during gamete formation. The alleles for eye color also do the same. Neither allele will influence or affect the inheritance or separation of the other allele because they are on different chromosomes. Which of Mendel’s laws predicts this? • A. Law of Segregation • B. Law of Independent Assortment
11. What is the genetics vocabulary word for a different form of a gene? Example in pea plants there are different forms for height, tall or short. These different forms are called:
12. The physical appearance or resulting physical trait/characteristics of an organism. • A. Genotype B. Phenotype • 13. The genetic makeup/actual alleles an organism has. • A. Genotype B. Phenotype
