Please match the following terms with the most fitting definition. Allele Homozygous heterzygous trait genetics continuous variation discontinuous variation genotype phenotype

Step 1
- **Allele**: A variant form of a gene that can exist at a specific locus on a chromosome. - **Homozygous**: Having two identical alleles for a particular gene (e.g., AA or aa). - **Heterozygous**: Having two different alleles for a particular gene (e.g., Aa). - Show more…

Match each genetics term with its definition Genotype passing traits from one generation to the next physical appearance of a trait version of a trait that can cover up another two different alleles two of the same allele version of a trait that can be covered up or hidden genetic makeup of a trait study of heredity Phenotype Homozygous Heterozygous Dominant Recessive

Link each term with the correct definition. GENOTYPE $\quad$ 1. An individual that carries one copy each of two different alleles (for example, an Aa individual or an $I B$ individual). $\begin{array}{l}\text { PHENOTYPE } & \text { 2. An individual that carries two copies of the same }\end{array}$ allele (for example, an $A A, a a,$ or $\|$ individual). HETEROZYGOTE $\quad$ 3. An allele that does not affect the phenotype when paired with a dominant allele in a heterozygote. HOMOZYGOTE $\quad 4$. The genetic makeup of an individual; more specifically, the two alleles of a given gene that affect a specific genetic trait in a given individual. DOMINANT $\quad 5$. The specific version of a genetic trait that is displayed by a given individual. RECESSIVE $\quad$ 6. The allele that controls the phenotype when paired with a different allele in a heterozygote individual.
Match the following to the proper definition: Allele An organisms physical appearance 2. Two different alleles for a particular trait Homozygous 3. Will be expressed if paired with a recessive allele Heterozygous Two Identical alleles for a particular trait Genotype organism's genetic make-up or complete set of alleles Phenotype 6. Will only be expressed If two copies of the allele are present Dominant 7. Different forms of the same gene Recessive
