(lower case) 10 The variable we change in an experiment. 11 The variable we measure in an experiment. 12 A stronger form of a gene that, when present, covers up the appearance of the recessive allele. (capital letter) 13 Pollen grains containing sperm from the male part of the plant (anther) are carried to the female part of the plant called the ovule (self and cross pollination). 14 The set of traits an organism receives from its parents 15 Comes from observations or data collected during an experiment 16 Energy 17 Explanation of what your evidence from an experiment means. 18 Different forms of the same trait (gene) Dominant Allele Controlled Variable Pollination Evidence Independent Variable Dependent Variable Genotype Reasoning/Elaboration True Breeding Gene Heredity Recessive Allele Trait Phenotype Claim Allele What is allowed to enter/leave both an open system and closed system Gregor Mendel
