Mendels Laws

13
Law of Segregation
During the formation of gametes (eggs or sperm), the two alleles responsible for a trait separate from each other. Alleles for a trait are then "recombined" at fertilization, producing the genotype for the traits of the offspring.

Dihybrid Cross
A breeding experiment that tracks the inheritance of two traits. Mendels Law of Independent Assortment
a. Each pair of alleles segregates independently during gamete formation b. Formula: 2n (n = # of heterozygotes)

Incomplete Dominance
F1 hybrids have an appearance somewhat in between the phenotypes of the two parental varieties. Example: snapdragons (flower) red (RR) x white (rr) r r RR = red flower rr = white flower

Codominance
Two alleles are expressed (multiple alleles) in heterozygous individuals. Example: blood type
