DNA : basic material that transfers genetic information
Genotype : genetic makeup of an organism
Chromosome : carries genes to the next generation
Polymer : several molecules joined together
Karyotype : chromosomes displayed in pairs in descending order of size
Nucleotide : simple sugar, phosphate group, nitrogen base
Phosphate group : a part of DNA
Punnett square : a tool to determine genotype and phenotype
Nitrogen base : Adenine, Thymine, Guanine, Cytosine
Heterozygous : when an organism has genes for two different traits
Genome : organism's complete set of DNA
Hydrogen bond : holds nitrogen bases together
Double helix : spiral pattern of DNA
Allele : pair of genes located at same place on matching chromosome
Phenotype : physical expression of genetic information
Gene : specific part of a chromosome that determines a specific trait
Recessive gene : phenotype is masked by dominant gene
Dominant gene : masks presence of corresponding gene
Homozygous : when an organism has genes for the same trait
