	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
