Sex Linked Traits

Allele

In science you "elaborate" on your data. How would you write this?

Gene

Genotype

Incomplete dominance

XY

Complete dominance or Dominant/Recessive

Phenotype

How a "claim" is written

Polygenic Traits/Multiple Alleles

Closed System

Codominance

Autosomal Traits

Open System

In science you support your claim. How would you write this?

System that allows matter in/out. Energy can enter/leave too

traits that are inherited with the sex allele (X or Y)

A system in which no matter is allowed to enter or leave. Energy CAN enter/leave

Written like this: "As the ___________ increases then the _______________ will (increase, decrease, or be unaffected)"

The two alleles traits mix so the trait meets in the middle...it won't look like either, but a mixture of the two alleles

Female genotype

Male Genotype

Whatever set (2) of alleles a person has for a gene (trait). Like HH or Hh

traits located on non-sex chromosomes

The two alleles both show up. They don't mix...you see both traits (alleles)

Form of a gene. They are found on opposite chromosome pairs. You get one of these from each parent.

Written like this: "This is supported by my experiment where I found the following data _________ "

The stronger allele covers up the weaker allele so you only see the dominant allele

Segment of DNA that codes for a protein. 2 or more proteins then make the trait

A trait that is controlled by multiple genes (more than 2 alleles)

Written like this... "My data shows that each time the ______ went up ________ occurred"

An organism's physical appearance for a trait. What the trait/gene looks like visually
