| The study of how traits are studied | Genetics |
| Structures in a cell's nucleus that are made of DNA (the genetic material). | Chromosomes |
| A distinguishing characteristic or quality; eye color, face shape. | Traits |
| The passing of traits from parents to offspring. | Heredity |
| A type of reproduction (regeneration, budding, binary fission, vegetative propagation) in which a new organism is produced by 1 PARENT!! with identical DNA to the parent. | Asexual Reproduction |
| A type of asexual reproduction that produces a bud that breaks away from the organism to live in its own | Budding |

| 2 Alleles in a gene pair are the SAME!! for a particular trait(EX: rr or RR) (can also be clarified as purebreds) | Homozygous |
| 2 Alleles in a gene pair are DIFFERENT!! for a particular trait.(EX: Rr) ( can also be clarified as hybrids) | Heterozygous |
| Describes a trait that is often covered up, is only seen when both alleles in a gene pair are recessive.(EX: lowercase 'r') | Recessive |
| Describes a trait that is always seen anytime it is present in a gene pair.
(EX: uppercase 'R') |
Dominant |
| An organisms genetic makeup, or alleles for a trait. | Genotype |
| Physical appearance & behavior of an organism because of the genes it has. | Phenotype |
| Another name for heterozygous, alleles for a trait that are different. | Hybrid |
| Another name for homozygous, alleles for a trait are the same. | Purebred |
| A tool used to predict probability of certain traits in offspring. | Punnet Square |
