God's
chromosome
A "threadlike" structure in the nucleus, composed of DNA
hybrid
A cross between parents which has different phenotypes for a specific trait
recessive
A gene or trait which is masked when a dominant allele is present
trait
A genetic characteristic of the individual
DNA
A giant molecule consisting of the sugar deoxyribose, phosphates and nitrogen bases
which differ in only one trait
A monohybrid cross is made between plants:
homozygous
A pair of genes in an organism which are identical in the way they influence a trait
gene
A portion of DNA which codes a specific hereditary trait
gamete
A reproductive cell produced by the male or female parent
allele
Alternative forms for a specific gene.(either dominant or recessive)
true-breeding
An organism which is homozygous
false
Each P1 parent of a monohybrid cross has completely identical genes.
F1 generation
First filial generation; the first generation from a given cross
false
Gregor Mendel was a respected, professional scientist who introduced the science of biology.
dominant
In a pair of genes, one may prevent the allele from being expressed
heterozygous
Refers to a pair of genes for a specific trait in an organism which are different
F2 generation
Second filial generation
monohybrid
The breeding of two organisms which differ in a single trait
dominant trait
The characteristic which resulted from a monohybrid cross is the
genotype
The genes present in an organism
self-fertilization
The organism brings the two genetically identical gametes together to offspring
phenotype
The outward appearance of the organism which is the product of gene action
P1 generation
The parental generation for a given cross
F1 or hybrid
The seeds collected from the first generation monohybrids are called:
tetrad
The two pairs of chromatids of the homologous pair of chromosomes comes together
pollination
Transfer of pollen in plants to the stigma which contains the female gamete
deviation
Variation from the predicted values
none of the above
What can be expected for the recessive trait of monohybrids from the F2 generation?
to control the crossing of the traits
Why did Mendel prevent his plants from self-pollinating?
true
A reptile has never been observed to give birth to a bird
kind
According to scripture, all known occurrences in the laboratory of the Earth have shown that each kind of organism is limited to reproducing a similar

In addition to covering each pea plant to prevent pollination from other pea plants in his garden, what did Mendel do to prevent self-pollination?
Genesis 1:24: Then God said, "Let the earth bring forth the living creature according to its kind: cattle and creeping thing and beast of the earth, each according to its kind"; and it was so. Genesis 1:12: And the earth brought forth grass, the herb that yields seed according to its kind, and the tree that yields fruit, whose seed is in itself according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
Which scriptures describe a biologic law of reproduction for which no exception has ever been documented?
