Delimiter between question and answer:

Tips:

  • No column headers.
  • Each line maps to a question.
  • If the delimiter is used in a question, the question should be surrounded by double quotes: "My, question","My, answer"
  • The first answer in the multiple choice question must be the correct answer.

When one allele is not dominant over the other, resulting in both traits expressed in a heterozygous individual
Co-dominant
A red flowered plant was crossed with a white flowered on. Their species shows incomplete dominance for this trait. What color will the offspring's flowers be?
Pink
A red flowered plant was crossed with a white flowered on. Their species shows co-dominance for this trait. What color will the offspring's flowers be?
Red and white (bicolored)
This leads to a "blended" phenotype
Incomplete Dominance
A, B, O blood type is a example of this
Multiple Alleles
Someone who has AB+ or - blood type is an example of this
Co-dominance
A single trait that has 3 or more alternative forms. These are called
Multiple alleles
General genetics terms that refers to what you see, or the physical appearance of an organism
Phenotype
The gene combinations such as heterozygous, or Aa are called
Genotype
This is when a trait is controlled by more than one PAIRS of genes
Polygenic trait
Typically when graphed, the frequency of these types of traits show a bell shaped curve
Polygenic Trait
Human hair, eye, and skin color are all examples of
Polygenic traits
If a gene is found only on the X chromosome and not the Y chromosome, it is said to be what?
Sex linked Trait
Certain types of color-blindness are more common in males than in females because they are inherited in this pattern
Sex-linked
In terms of chromosomes, females receive this combination
XX
Males are more likely to inherit a sex linked trait due to the fact that they have only one __________ chromosome
X
This is the chromosome that carries the male genetic traits
Y
This pattern of inheritance is demonstrated when a gene from one locus can prevent the full expression of another gene at a different locus.
Epistasis
True or False: Men can NEVER be "carriers" for recessive sex-linked traits because they only have one X chromosome.
True
T/F: Some traits can be due to a combination of inheritance patterns
True
Genetics is just one contributing factor to phenotype, another important factor is
the environment
3/4 orange tabby cats are male. This is because the gene for this trait are found on the _______________ .
X Chromosome
