A genetic cross examining two traits simultaneously, observing offspring distributions.

Mendel's principle stating genes segregate independently during gamete formation.

The generation of offspring with combinations of alleles different from their parents.

A diagram used to predict the genotype probabilities of offspring from a genetic cross.

A genetic cross involving three traits, computed using more complex methods due to size.

A cross between two parental plants differing in one character.

The first generation of offspring resulting from a P cross.

The generation produced by self-fertilizing F1 plants.

A trait that is expressed over the recessive trait in F1.

A trait that is masked by the dominant trait in F1.

The idea that traits are inherited as discrete units called genes.

The principle that gene copies separate during gamete formation.

The observed ratio of traits in the offspring, like 3:1.

Defective gene copies that impair function, often inherited recessively.

Mendel unknowingly used seven loss-of-function alleles in his pea plant experiments.

Chromosomes transmit genetic determinants of traits, explaining Mendelian inheritance patterns.

Chromosomes contain the genetic information necessary for inheritance.

Eukaryotic cells with homologous chromosomes in pairs, each parent contributes one set.

Homologous chromosomes separate during meiosis I, leading to allele segregation.

Different types of chromosomes segregate independently during gamete formation in meiosis.

A measure that indicates the probability of obtaining test results at least as extreme as the observed results, assuming the null hypothesis is true.

A statistical test used to determine if there is a significant association between categorical variables.

The actual data collected from an experiment or study in each category.

The theoretical distribution of data in each category based on the hypothesis.

The number of independent values or quantities that can vary in the analysis, can affect the results of the test.

The formula used in the Chi Square test: x² = ∑(O−E)²/E where O = observed and E = expected data.

A statement suggesting no effect or no difference, which is tested against the collected data.

A cutoff point (often 0.05) at which you reject the null hypothesis due to low probability of random occurrence.

A method used to determine inheritance patterns of traits in humans.

The ways in which traits or diseases are passed from parents to offspring.

Variants of a gene that can cause disease or normal function.

Inheritance patterns that follow Mendel's laws, can be dominant or recessive.

A pattern where two unaffected heterozygous parents have a 25% chance of an affected offspring.

A pattern where an affected individual has inherited the gene from at least one affected parent.

A genetic disorder caused by a mutation affecting ion transport, following an autosomal recessive pattern.

The protein encoded by the cystic fibrosis gene that regulates ion transport across membranes.
