Who is known as the father of genetics, an Austrian monk, mathematician, and scientist who learned how traits are inherited?

Which organism is easy to work with, reproduces and grows quickly, has distinguishable traits, and allows for controllable mating?

What did Mendel discover about how pea traits move through generations?

What is the study of inheritance called?

What is a characteristic that belongs to an organism?

What is the unit that determines a trait, located on a chromosome and passed to offspring?

What is one form of a gene that controls traits, with two alleles for each trait, one from each parent?

What is the term for the process of mating in genetics?

What law states that every individual inherits two alleles, one from each parent, and passes one of these alleles to their offspring?

What is the allele combination that determines phenotype, described as homozygous or heterozygous?

What term describes the physical appearance or expression of a genotype?

What type of allele is always present in the phenotype?

What type of allele requires two copies to be expressed?

What term describes alleles that are the same or matching?

What term describes alleles that are different?

What term refers to all of an organism's genetic material?

What tool shows the probability that offspring will inherit a specific combination of alleles based on parent genotypes?

What law states that alleles are separated randomly in meiosis and are therefore paired randomly in offspring?

What type of genetic cross predicts offspring using two traits?

What is the term for when both alleles are dominant and completely expressed?

What are the proteins in red blood cell membranes that determine blood type?

What term describes more than two alleles of the same gene?

What is the term for when neither allele is dominant, and the phenotype is a mix or blend?

What term describes traits controlled by more than one gene?

What is the term for when one gene controls multiple traits?

What is the term for when two or more genes control each other, a type of multiple alleles?

What equation represents the phenotype, considering the role of the environment in how a genotype is expressed?

What is the inheritance of traits whose gene is located on the X or Y chromosome called?

What type of inheritance occurs when a father passes a trait to all sons but no daughters?

What type of inheritance requires males to express everything on the X they inherit, while females with an X with a recessive allele can have it covered up?

What type of inheritance is present in males and females in every generation?

What type of inheritance is present in males and females and often appears 'out of nowhere' due to being covered up for generations?

What type of inheritance involves all dads passing traits to all sons?

What type of inheritance is generally seen in males connected by carrier females?

What is one of the different possible forms of a gene?
