A physical appearance B. combination of two different alleles C. combination of two exact same D-an alternate form of a gene v Genome ? Gene alleles Genotype v Phenotype position of a gene on the chromosome T- a stretch on DNA that carries information for synthesis G rotal DNA content of a cell fivariant of a trait (allele) that expresses its effect even of a protein Homozygous Y Heterozygous y Dominant when present in heterozygous combination underlying genetic basis for the physical appearance an allele whose effect is masked when present with another version of the trait Locus

Explanation / Answer

Genome - G - Total DNA content of a cell

Gene - F - a stretch of DNA that carries information for the synthesis of a protein

Genotype - I - Underlying genetic basis for the physical appearance

Phenotype - A - Physical appearance

Allele - D - an alternate form of a gene

Homozygous - C - Combination of two exact same alleles

Heterozygous - B - Combination of two different alleles

Dominant - H - Variant of a trait (allele) that expresses its effect even when present in heterozygous combination.

Recessive - J - an allele whose effect is masked when present with another version of the trait

Locus - E - Position of a gene on the chromosome
