Column B
a.The trait that is always seen if present - represented by an uppercase letter
b.The trait that is only seen if both genes are the same - represented by a lowercase letter
c.Always write upper case letters first in each pair (Tt), and in the case of multiple traits - write in alphabetical order (AA Bb Dd)
d.One version of a gene
e.The paired genes have different versions, like Bb and Qq
f.A way to compare values out of 100 "per100"
g.A way to compare values, for example 1:3 (out of 4)
h.Both alleles are the same, like FF and gg
i.Physical appearance or presence of the trait in question, like black hair or Rh+
j.The paired genes represented by letters, like Ff and AA
k.Location of an allele/gene on a chromosome

Answer 1

Here is the matching of terms from Column A with their definitions from Column B:

1. phenotype: i. Physical appearance or presence of the trait in question, like black hair or Rh+
2. genotype: j. The paired genes represented by letters, like Ff and AA
3. dominant: a. The trait that is always seen if present - represented by an uppercase letter
4. recessive: b. The trait that is only seen if both genes are the same - represented by a lowercase letter
5. homozygous: h. Both alleles are the same, like FF and gg
6. heterozygous: e. The paired genes have different versions, like Bb and Qq
7. hybrid genotype: e. The paired genes have different versions, like Bb and Qq (Note: This term is commonly used interchangeably with heterozygous.)
8. allele: d. One version of a gene
9. purebred genotype: h. Both alleles are the same, like FF and gg (Note: This term can refer to the same concept as homozygous.)
10. ratio: g. A way to compare values, for example 1:3 (out of 4)
11. percentage: f. A way to compare values out of 100 "per100"
12. genotype writing conventions: c. Always write upper case letters first in each pair (Tt), and in the case of multiple traits - write in alphabetical order (AA Bb Dd)
13. locus: k. Location of an allele/gene on a chromosome
