1. In __________
inheritance, a trait is
influenced by more
than one gene.
2. __________ is a type
of non-Mendelian
inheritance where both
alleles in a
heterozygous organism
contribute to the
phenotype.
3. __________ occurs
when one allele is not
completely dominant
over the other, resulting
in a blended phenotype.
4. __________ traits
are those influenced by
genes located on the
sex chromosomes.
5. __________ is the
phenomenon where a
single gene affects
multiple traits.
6. In __________
inheritance, the
environment can
influence the
expression of a gene.
7. __________ is a
pattern of inheritance
where the phenotype
depends on whether an
allele is inherited from
the mother or the
father.
8. A __________ is a
chart used to track the
inheritance of traits
over generations.
9. In __________
inheritance, the
presence of one gene
can mask the effects of
another gene.
10. __________ traits
are influenced by
multiple genes and
often show a range of
phenotypes in the
population.
11. __________ is the
term for the observable
characteristics of an
organism.
12. __________ is the
genetic makeup of an
organism.
13. __________ occurs
when the expression of
a gene is influenced by
its physical location
within the genome.
14. __________ is the
study of how genes and
their interactions affect
an organism’s traits.
15. __________ are
variations in the DNA
sequence that occur
among individuals in a
population.
