Genes are separate chromosomes assort into gametes independently
Non-Mendelian:
$100 Question
Which blood type is the universal donor?
Why?
Non-Mendelian :
$100 Answer
Type O, it does not have any antigens on the surface of the red blood cells (they will not react with the antibodies in the other blood types)
Non-Mendelian :
$200 Question
Skin color, eye color, and height in humans are examples of these type of traits that cause a bell shaped curve set of phenotypes
Non-Mendelian :
$200 Answer polygenic
Non-Mendelian :

Non-Mendelian :
$300 Answer

Non-Mendelian :
$400 Question
This type of inheritance takes place when you can see both phenotypes expressed when two different alleles are inherited
Non-Mendelian :
$400 Answer
Co-dominance
Non-Mendelian :

If you do not know the genotype of an individual with the dominant phenotype you can cross it with a homozygous recessive individual.
All dominant phenotype in F1 = homozygous dominant
1:1 ratio of dominant phenotype to recessive phenotype
