Genetics:study of heredity and variation in organisms
Fertilization:process of fertilizing an embryo
Truebreeding:offspring has the same phenotype as parents
Trait:quality or characteristic
Hybrid:different mixed species
Gene:unit of heredity that is passed on from parents to offspring as a characteristic
Allele:pair of genes on a chromosome
Segregation:separating 46 chromosomes
Gamete:a mature sexual reproductive cell that unites with another cell to form a new organism
probability:fact or quality of being probable
punnettsquare:diagram to predict the outcome of breeding experiment
Homozygous:when a organism has one copy of two different alleles
Heterozygous: refers to a pair of genes where one is dominant and the other recessive
Phenotype:physical appearance of an organism
Genotype:genetic constitution of an organism
Dominant:produces same phenotype whether allele is same or not
recessive:produces characteristic when the allele is identical
heredity:the passing of physical or mental characteristics genetically from generation
