More words to know…More words to know… HomozygousHomozygous – both alleles in a pair – both alleles in a pair

are alikeare alike– Also known as a Also known as a PUREBREDPUREBRED

– Homozygous dominant = Homozygous dominant = PPPP– Homozygous recessive =Homozygous recessive = pppp

HeterozygousHeterozygous – alleles are different – alleles are different– Also known as a Also known as a HYBRIDHYBRID

– Heterozygous = Heterozygous = PPpp

ProbabilityProbability The likelihood that a specific event The likelihood that a specific event

will occurwill occur– May be expressed as a May be expressed as a decimaldecimal, , percentagepercentage, , fractionfraction, or , or ratioratio

Monohybrid CrossesMonohybrid Crosses

A cross between individuals involving A cross between individuals involving one pair of contrasting traits is called one pair of contrasting traits is called a a monohybrid crossmonohybrid cross– There are 4 possible outcomes (2There are 4 possible outcomes (222))

Results are created with the use of Results are created with the use of Punnett SquarePunnett Square– A diagram that helps biologist predict A diagram that helps biologist predict

the probability that certain traits will be the probability that certain traits will be inherited by offspringinherited by offspring

Complete dominance– When one allele is completely dominant When one allele is completely dominant

over the otherover the other Ex. Ex. BBbb

Incomplete dominanceIncomplete dominance– No dominant or recessive allele; a No dominant or recessive allele; a

heterozygous heterozygous individual has an individual has an intermediate phenotypeintermediate phenotype Ex. Ex. BBbb
