(capital letter) 13 The set of traits an organism receives from its parents 14 Shows the actual alleles of the gene. 15 Comes from observations or data collected during an experiment 16 Scientific explanation for what is occurring. 17 A weaker form of a gene that is hidden when combined with a dominant allele. (lower case) 18 The variable we change in an experiment. Dominant Allele What is allowed to enter/leave both an open system and closed system Phenotype Gregor Mendel Pollination Reasoning/Elaboration Gene Heredity Dependent Variable Controlled Variable Allele Trait Evidence Recessive Allele Independent Variable Claim Genotype True Breeding
