9. Mendel’s Work Alleles are represented by the first letter of the dominant trait Pea plant flower color (trait) Purple or white Purple is dominant over white Alleles are represented as P=purple p=white

11. Mendel’s Work Describing Traits (Tall or short plants) Genotype The actual genetic make-up of an organism the “genes” Phenotype The physical appearance or form observed the “physical”
12. Mendel’s Work Possible Genotypes (TT Tt tt) Homozygous The two alleles for the trait are identical TT homozygous dominant (purebred dominant) tt homozygous recessive (purebred recessive) Heterozygous The two alleles for the trait are different Tt heterozygote (hybrid)

15. 1. Law of Dominance Alleles for a trait are either dominant or recessive The dominant form is expressed and the recessive form is hidden The only way to express a recessive trait is if there are two copies of the recessive allele Mendel’s Conclusions
22. “ Dominant” gene does not fully express itself to mask the effect of the recessive gene A pattern of inheritance in which the phenotype of a heterozygous individual is intermediate between those of the parents Genotypic ratio is equal to phenotypic ratio
23. Co-Dominance Two or more alleles are fully dominant When present together they are both expressed ABO Blood Groups exhibit co-dominace
