This is the allele that is seen visually in the trait. An organism that has two different alleles for a trait on each chromosome pair The physical appearance of a trait. Color, shape, etc. The allele that gets covered up by the stronger allele. This allele is weaker and may not be seen visually in a trait. Codes for making a protein. Proteins they make the trait. The variable that is kept the same in an experiment Data from an experiment Variable that is changed in an experiment (the cause) The code that both alleles encode for on each chromosome pair An organism that has the same allele for a trait on each chromosome pair Variable that is measured in an experiment (the effect) Each person has two gene "variant copies" for every trait. One of these genes variants is found on each chromosome
