Matching Pairs Genetics - FlashcardsOnline version Genetics - Flashcards Activity by Benjamin D Morgan 1 The form of a trait that is displayed in an organism (what you see). 2 The variable we keep the same in an experiment 3 Different forms of the same trait (gene) 4 A stronger form of a gene that, when present, covers up the appearance of the recessive allele. (capital letter) 5 The variable we change in an experiment. 6 The variable we measure in an experiment. 7 Shows the actual alleles of the gene. 8 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). 9 A segment or unit of DNA that determines traits (heredity) 10 Scientific explanation for what is occurring. 11 Explanation of what your evidence from an experiment means. 12 Energy 13 The set of traits an organism receives from its parents 14 Comes from observations or data collected during an experiment 15 An Austrian monk who studied pea plants that was known as the "Father of Genetics" 16 A characteristic that an organism can pass on to its offspring. 17 A weaker form of a gene that is hidden when combined with a dominant allele. (lower case) 18 A plant that produces offspring with the same form of a trait when self pollinated True Breeding Controlled Variable Pollination Dominant Allele Independent Variable Allele Evidence Phenotype Recessive Allele What is allowed to enter/leave both an open system and closed system Claim Genotype Heredity Gregor Mendel Gene Dependent Variable Reasoning/Elaboration Trait
