100 Who is Gregory Mendel? Who is the father of genetics?	100 What is a phenotype? What are physical characteristics called?	100 What are Purple flowers? Purple flowers are dominant to white. What is the phenotype for the genotype PP?	100 What is heterozygous? or What is Short hair? In cats, long hair is recessive to short hair. A true-breeding (homozygous) short-haired male is mated to a long-haired female. What will their kittens look like?	100 What is 13 years How many years did the HGP take?
200 What is a pea plant? What type of plant was initially used to study genetics?	200 What is a carrier? or what is heterozygous What is it called when a genotype has one recessive allele.	200 What is incomplete dominance? Suppose a white-furred rabbit breeds with a black-furred rabbit and all of their offspring have a phenotype of gray fur. What does the gene for fur color in rabbits appear to be an example of?	200 What is squares for males, circles for females? How are males and female represented in pedigrees?	200 What is restriction enzymes How do scientists cut DNA?
300 What is a recessive trait? What is a trait that ONLY appears when it it has a homozygous genotype?	300 What are alleles? What is a version of a gene?	300 What is red? In snapdragons, flower color is controlled by incomplete dominance. The two alleles are red (R)and white (r). The heterozygous genotype is expressed as pink.a.What is the phenotype of a plant with the genotype RR?	300 What is a 50% chance? What is the chance that XY male and an XX female will produce a male?	300 What is 3.2 billion How many base pairs does the human genome contain?
400 What is predict the offspring of a genetic cross? What is the purpose of a punnett square?	400 What is Homozygous dominant? What is it called when you have two dominant alleles?	400 What is co-dominance? A gene for corn has two alleles, one for yellow kernels and one for white kernels. Cross pollination of yellow corn and white corn results in ears of corn that have an approximately even mix of yellow and white kernels. Which term best describes the relationship between the two alleles?	400 What is a 50% chance? If two people who are both carriers for a genetically inherited fatal recessive disease decide to become parents, what will be the odds that their children will also be carriers?	400 What is sex-linked recessive? or What is Hemophilia? What type of trait is shown on a pedigree that shows mainly males affected?
500 What is two? Organisms get _____ copies of every gene from their parents.	500 What is incomplete dominance? A type of inheritance where there is a blending of two phenotypes is called…	500 What is a 3:1 ratio? In a cross where both parents are heterozygous for a trait, you should get what ratio.	500 What is a 0% chance? If two parents are homozygous for a genetically inherited recessive trait, what is the probability that they will have a child who does not have this trait in his or her phenotype?	500 What is PKU or Phenoketonuria What is the name of the disease that causes a person not to be able to break down a certain amino acid?
