A rule of probability stating that the probability of any of two or more mutually exclusive events occurring can be determined by adding their individual probabilities
An organism that has two different alleles for a gene
The observable physical and psychological traits of an organism which are determined by its genetic make up
Mendel’s second law, stating that each pair of alleles segregates, or assorts, independently of each other pair during gamete formation; applies when genes for two characters are located on different pairs of homologous chromosomes or when they are far enough apart on the same chromosome to behave as though they are in different chromosomes.
An organism that has a pair of identical alleles for a gene (encoding a character)
Any of the alternative Versions of a gene that may produce distinguishable Phenotypic effects
having two identical alleles for a given gene
an organism that is heterozygous with respect to two genes of interest.All the offspring from a cross between parents double homozygous for different alleles are dihybrids.For example, parents of genotypes AABB and aabb produce a dihybrid of genotype AaBb
A diagram of a family tree with conventional symbols, showing the occurrence of heritable characters in parents and offspring over multiple generations
A cross between two organism that are each heterozygous for both of the characters being followed (or the self-pollination of a plant that is heterozygous for both characters)
An observable heritable feature that may very among individuals
an allele whose phenotype effect is not observed I’m a heterozygote
Breeding an organism of unknown genotype with A homozygous recessive individual to determine the unknown genotype.The ratio of phenotypes in offspring reveals the unknown genotype
In genetics, an individual who is heterozygous at a given genetic locus for a recessively inherited disorder.The heterozygote is a generally phenotypically normal for the disorder but can pass on the recessive allele to offspring.
a
a diagram used in the study of inheritance To show the predicted genotypic results of random fertilization and genetic crosses between individuals of known genotype
Mendel’s first law, stating that the two alleles in a pair segregate into different gametes during gamete formation
the situation in which the phenotype of heterozygote is intermediate between the phenotypes of individuals homozygous for either allele
A human genetic disorder caused by a recessive allele For a chloride channel protein;Characterized by an Excessive secretion Of mucus and consequent vulnerability to infection; fatal if untreated
Human genetic disease caused by a dominant allele he characterized by Uncontrollable body movement and degeneration of the nervous system usually fatal 10 to 20 years after the onset of symptoms
A roll of probability stating that the probability of two or more independent events occurring together can be determined by multiplying their individual probabilities
An additive effect of two or more genes on a single phenotypic character
The genetic makeup, or set of alleles, of an organism
A cross between two organisms that are heterozygous For the character being followed (Or the self-pollination of a heterozygous plant)
