$100 Question from Mendel
What organism did Mendel work
with in order to study heredity?
$100 Answer from Mendel
Peas
$200 Question from Mendel
What are genes?
$200 Answer from Mendel
Genes are individual factors that
control heredity.
$300 Question from Mendel
What are the different forms of
genes called?
$300 Answer from Mendel
Alleles
$400 Question from Mendel
During segregation what occurs?
$400 Answer from Mendel
During segregation alleles for the
same trait are separated.
$500 Question from Mendel
Mrs. Johnson is homozygous for
brown hair (BB) and her husband is
homozygous for blonde hair (bb).
What would you call their offspring?
(You need BOTH terms)
$500 Answer from Mendel
Heterozygous / Hybrids
$100 Question from Meiosis
What occurs during meiosis?
$100 Answer from Meiosis
The number of chromosomes are
reduced and gametes are formed.
$200 Question from Meiosis
How many gametes are formed from
one cycle of meiosis in a male?
$200 Answer from Meiosis
4 sperm
$300 Question from Meiosis
In females what is the name and
purpose of the 3 sacrificed cells that result
from meiosis?
$300 Answer from Meiosis
Polar bodies, they maintain the
proper number of chromosomes
in the one remaining egg cell.
$400 Question from Meiosis
What does diploid mean?
$400 Answer from Meiosis
A cell that contains both sets of
homologous chromosomes.
$500 Question from Meiosis
How is meiosis different from
Mitosis?
$500 Answer from Meiosis
•In mitosis you end up with 2 identical cells.
•In meiosis you end up with 4 genetically
different sperm, or 1 genetically different egg
(different from other egg cells).
$100 Question from Key Terms
What two words mean different?
$100 Answer from Key Terms
Heterozygous & Hybrid
$200 Question from Key Terms
What are alleles and what are the

where on a punnett square?
$400 Answer from Punnett
Squares
The female is always put across
the top in a punnett square.
$500 Question from Punnett

produce a 9:3:3:1 ratio of offspring?
$500 Answer from Punnett
