The parental generation - original two individuals that are crossed during a breeding experiment. Heterozygous Alleles Punnett Square A family history that shows how a trait is inherited over several generations genes with more than two alleles EX: blood type Polygenic Inheritance Codominance A trait that is determined by a gene found on one of the sex chromosomes, such as the X chromosome. The physical appearance of a character EX: brown hair, green eyes, etc. Genetics F1 Generation The alleles of different genes separate independently of one another Dominant Probability A trait that is not expressed when the dominant trait is present. A cross that involves ONE pair of contrasting traits. Homozygous Two alleles for a character segregate when gametes are formed. Heredity F2 Generation
