Question

Match the terms with their definition

dominant, gene, phenotype, genotype

1. a sequence of DNA responsible for coding a protein

2. the complete range of alleles an organism carries for a specific trait

3. an allele that determines the outward trait of a heterozygous organism

4. the observable characteristics of an organism

Answer 1

The right matches are

Dominant ==> 3

Gene ==> 1

Phenotype ==> 4

Genotype ==> 2

Genotype is the whole genetic inheritance of a person inherited from his ascendants.

The gene is a part of the chromosome that conditions the transmission of a hereditary trait.

Dominance is the quality of a gene that dominates any gene in the pair.

The phenotype is the set of apparent characters of an individual, corresponding to a realization of the genotype.

Answer 2

Dominant: 3
Gene: 1
Phenotype: 4
Genotype: 2
