Mendelian

What percentage of genetic information is passed on from each parent to their offspring

50% from each parent

What is the genotype of the offspring

Aa

What is an allele?

An alternative form of a gene.

Why do all offspring have brown fur

Because the allele for brown for color is dominant

What is the name of the haploid cells that carry genetic information from each parent

Gametes

The law of independent assortment states that

Genes segregate independently during gamete formation

What is a hybrid?

Offspring of crosses between parents with different traits

What is the gene color for blindness represented by

Red section

What does it mean when a trait is independent of another trait

The inheritance of a trait does not affect the inheritance of another trait

Through this experiment he realize that the inheritance of the seed color did not affect the inheritance of the seed shape he then called this occurrence

The law of independent assortment

During gamete formation two alleles will end up in different gametes due to

The law of segregation

What is the phenotype of an individual

The observable characteristics

What is the genotype of an individual

They are genes

Why do all offspring have the same fur color

They have the same genes for each allele

Look at the offspring of the mice from the past that we performed how many brown and Black mice are there

Three brown one black

How do we represent dominant and recessive alleles

Upper case letters for dominant, lowercase letters for recessive alleles

Knowing that Joseph is colorblind what is its genotype
