12
heredity: the passing of traits to offspring from its parents or ancestor
genes: basic unit of heredity
chromosome: a single piece of DNA containing many genes
allele: an alternative form of the gene
characteristics: heritable features
trait: a variation for a characteristic
recessive:heritable characteristics controlled by genes that are expressed in offspring only when inherited from both parents
dominant:characteristics that are controlled by genes that are expressed in offspring even when inherited from only one parent
offspring: a general term for the product of reproduction
hybrid: offspring from interbreeding two organisms
Mendel: father of genetics
genotype: represents genetic make up using letters as codes
phenotype:the physical observable characteristics
