Genes : The DNA on chromosomes is arranged in segments.
Homologous Chromosomes : The chromosomes that make up a pair, one chromosome from each parent.
Gametes : Sex cells that half the number of chromosomes.
Haploid : A cell with n number of chromosomes.
Fertilization : The process by which one haploid gamete combines with another haploid gamete.
Diploid : A cell that contains 2n number of of chromosomes.
Meiosis : A type of cell division that reduces the number of chromosomes; therefore, it is referred to as a reduction division.
Crossing Over : A process during which chromosomal segments are exchanged between a pair of homologous chromosomes.
Genetics : The science of heredity.
Allele : An alternative form of a single gene passed from generation to generation.
Phenotype : The observable characteristic or outward expression of an allele pair.
Genotype : The organism's allele pairs
Law of Segregation : States that the two alleles for each trait separate during meiosis.
Genetic Recombination : The new combination of genes produced by crossing over and independent assortment.
Polyploidy : The occurrence of one ore more extra sets of all chromosomes in an organism .
Law of Independent Assortment : States that a random distribution of alleles occurs during gamete formation.
Homozygous : An organism with two of the same alleles for a particular trait.
Heterozygous : An organism with two different alleles for a particular trait.
Dominant : The form of the trait that appeared in the F1 generation
Recessive : The form of the trait that was masked in the F1 generation.
