<p>Genotype = The physical expression of a trait Gametes = The alleles possessed by an individual Monohybrid Cross = A cross between parents that differ at a single gene pair Purebred = The offspring of two parents that are homozygous for alternate alleles of a gene pair</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>Principles of Segregation = The separation of paired genes from one another and are distributed to different sex cells First Experiment = A cross between parents that are homozygous for different alleles of a gene pair Homozygous = Having two different alleles of a gene pair Gamete Formation = The process of producing gametes with unique combinations of alleles</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>Heterozygous = Having two identical alleles of a gene pair Monohybrids = The offspring of two parents that are heterozygous for a gene pair Alleles = Different forms of a gene that occupy the same position on a chromosome Purity of Gametes = The production of gametes with only one allele of a gene pair</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>Monohybrid Cross = Produces offspring with a 3:1 ratio of dominant to recessive traits Dihybrid Cross = Involves a cross between parents that differ at two gene pairs Homozygous Cross = Produces offspring with only one possible genotype Hybrids = Offspring that are a combination of two purebred parents</p> Signup and view all the answers
