Unit 6-Meiosis and Genetics
Be able to:
● Recognize who is the “father of modern genetics”
● Predict the probabilities of offspring using a Punnett square for monohybrid crosses
● Recognize genetic vocabulary: homozygous, heterozygous, phenotype, genotype
● Identify recessive versus dominant genes
● Explain genetic mutations
● Compare and contrast mitosis and meiosis. Understand the process and sequence of
the phases in both cell cycles
● Identify the end products of mitosis and meiosis
● Describe diploid vs. haploid numbers in the cell
Answer:
1. An individual with two of the same allele is said to be _________.
2. Two alleles for a trait are tall (S) and short (s). Tall is dominant. How would the
genotype of a heterozygous individual be written?
3. Phenotype refers to _________.
a. genetic makeup
b. genetic mutations
ase
se

c. physical appearance
d. recessive alleles
4. Two alleles of a trait are broad and narrow. Broad is dominant. How would the
phenotype of a homozygous dominant individual be expressed?
5. In pea plants, height is determined by a single gene, with tall being dominant. If two
heterozygous plants are cross, what proportion of the offspring will be homozygous
dominant?
6. When a homozygous recessive organism is crossed with a heterozygous dominant
organism, what percent of the offspring will be heterozygous?
