$100$100
A: Being a scientist wasn’t Mendel’s main “job”. What job did Mendel have?
$100$100Q: What is a monk?
$200$200
A: Mendel grew these plants, known in Latin as Pisum sativum.
$200$200
Q: What are pea plants?
$300$300
A: Mendel used “pure-breeding” plants for his P generation. These plants had genotypes in which the two alleles in a pair were the same. This term is now used to describe this genotype.
$300$300
Q: What is homozygous?
$400$400
A: Mendel found that when he crossed purple flowers x white flowers, all the offspring had purple flowers. The purple-flowered offspring were known as this generation.
$400$400
Q: What is the F1 generation?
$500$500
A: Mendel came up with these two laws of inheritance.
$500$500
Q: What are the Law of Segregation and Law of independent assortment?
$100$100
A: The study of the transmission of characteristics from parents to offspring.
$100$100
Q: What is genetics?
$200$200
A: A trait controlled by this allele masks the effects of other alleles for the same characteristic.
$200$200
Q: What is a “dominant” allele?
http://www.supplementsuk.co.uk/gfx/cartoon_muscle.gif
$300$300
A: Mendel’s law stating that a pair of alleles is separated during the formation of gametes.
$300$300
Q: What is the “Law of Segregation?”
$400$400
A: When an offspring has two alleles in a pair that are different.
$400$400
Q: What is heterozygous?
$500$500
A: The term that describes the process in which a pair of homologous chromosomes does not properly separate; accounts for conditions such as Down’s syndrome.

Q: What is nondisjuction?
$100$100A: There are 23 pairs of these in the
average human cell.

Q: What are chromosomes?
$200$200
A: Where genes are located; this marvelous, magical molecule is composed of sugars, phosphates, and nitrogen bases (A,T,G,C)

Q: What is DNA (or deoxyribonucleic acid) ?
$300$300
A: The segments of DNA on a chromosome, called genes, code for the production of these molecules in a cell.

$300$300
Q: What are proteins?
$400$400 A: Alternative forms of genes are called these.
$400$400 Q: What are alleles?
$500$500
A: The genes (alleles) someone inherits is described by this term.
$500$500
Q: What is genotype?
$100$100
A: Mendel transferred this from the anthers of flowers on one plant to the stigma of flowers on a different plant.

$200$200
A: Mendel crossed true-breeding purple flowered plants with true-breeding white flowered. All F1 generation offspring had this phenotype and genotype.
$200$200
Q: What is purple flowers and Pp?
http://www.exn.ca/Stories/1999/10/21/55.asp
$300$300
A: If P=purple and p=white, 50% of Mendel’s F2 generation were of this genotype.
$300$300
Q: What is Pp?
$400$400
A: If a parent has the genotype BbRr for brown hair (B) and rosy lips (R), these would be the possible ways in which alleles might be packaged into gametes.
$400$400
Q: What are BR, Br, bR, and br?
$500$500
A: The cross BbRr x BBrr results in this fraction of offspring with both brown hair (B) and rosy lips (R).
$500$500
Q: What is 1/2?
$100$100
A: ABO blood types are an example of this exception to Mendel’s patterns of inheritance, in which both alleles may be dominant simultaneously.
$100$100
Q: What is codominance?
$200$200
A: The blood type of a person with the genotype ii.

A: What is type O?
$300$300
A: The blood type that results from a genotype of Iai.
$300$300
Q: What is type A?
$400$400
A: The blood type that results from a cross between parents with genotypes of IaIa and IbIb.
$400$400
Q: What is type AB?
$500$500A: This type inheritance results in
more males than females with the recessive phenotype.

Q: What is X-linked inheritance?
$100$100 A: The contestant on the far right would be represented on a pedigree by this symbol.
$100$100 Q: What is a circle?
$200$200
A: The genotype of a male with colorblindness, an X-lined trait.
$200$200
Q: What is XrY?
$300$300
A: The symbol,
represents this in a pedigree.
$300$300
Q: What is “heterozygous male” (or carrier male)?
$400$400A: The two contestants on the right, if
heterozygous for a trait, would have this percentage of completely black circles or squares on a pedigree.
$400$400
Q: What is 25%, or ¼?

A: The name of this man.
