| The fusion of sperm and egg produced by the same individual organism. | ||
| referring to organisms for which sexual reproduction produces offspring with inherited traits identical to those of the parents; the organisms are homozygous for the characteristics under consideration | ||
| the offspring of parents of two different species or of two different varieties of one species; the offspring of two parents that differ in one or more inherited traits; an individual that is heterozygous for one or more pairs of genes | ||
| The fusion of sperm and egg derived from two different individuals | ||
| The parent individuals from which offspring are derived in studies of inheritance | ||
| the offspring of two parental (P generation) individuals; ____ stands for first filial | ||
| the offspring of the F1 generation; ____stands for second fillial | ||
| An experimental mating of individuals differing at one genetic locus | ||
| an alternative form of a gene | ||
| having two identical alleles for a gene | ||
| having two different alleles for a given gene | ||
| In a heterozygote, the allele that determines the phenotype with respect to a particular gene | ||
| In a heterozygous individual, the allele that has no noticeable effect on the phenotype | ||
| a general rule in inheritance that individuals have 2 alleles for each gene and that when gametes form by meosis, the 2 alleles separate, and each resulting gamete ends up with only one allele of each gene; also know as Mendel's First Law of Inheritance | ||
| A diagram used in the study of inheritance to show the results of random fertilization | ||
| The expressed traits of an organism | ||
| the genetic makeup of an organism | ||
| an experimental mating of individuals differing at 2 genetic loci | ||
| a general rule in inheritance that when gametes form during meosis, each pair of alleles for a particular characteristc segregate independantly; also know as Mendel's Second Law of Inheritence | ||
| the mating between an individual of unknown genotype for a particular characteristic and an individual that is homozygous recessive for that same characteristic | ||
| A rule stating that the probability of a compound event is the product of the separate probabilities of the independent events | ||
| A rule stating that the probability of an event occurring when there are two or more alternative ways is the sum of the separate probabilities of the different ways | ||
| a family tree representing the occurances of heritable traits in parents and offspring across a number of generations | ||
| mating between close relatives |
